Content

• Introduction: Overview of the Spektrum API.
• API Setup: Step-by-step guide to configure your API environment.
• API Usage: Examples of how to use the Spektrum API.
• Response Handling: How to interpret API responses.
• FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions.

Getting Started

Step 1: Introduction

Spektrum API is designed to verify the identity of individuals through image analysis, using advanced AI algorithms. You can submit images, and the API will return the verification results.

Step 2: API Setup

Follow these steps to set up your environment:

1. Install Required Tools:

   • Node.js for JavaScript development
   • Python for Python-based development
   • A code editor (like VSCode)

2. Obtain Your API Key: Get your API key from the Hive Forensics AI portal. You’ll need this key to authenticate your API requests.

3. Create a Configuration File: Set up a configuration file in your project to store your API key securely. Example for .env:

   API_KEY=your-api-key-here
   

Step 3: Configuration

1. Integrate the API Key: Add your API key to your project’s environment configuration. For example, in Node.js:

   const apiKey = process.env.API_KEY;
   

2. Set Up Base URL: Define the base URL for the Spektrum API in your application’s configuration:

   const spektrumApiUrl = 'http://localhost:3000/assess-id';
   

Step 4: API Usage

Spektrum API for Identity Verification

Endpoint: POST http://localhost:3000/assess-id

Headers:

{
  "Content-Type": "multipart/form-data",
  "x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
}

Request Payload:

--form 'image

=@"/path/to/your/image.png"'

Example in cURL

curl --location 'http://localhost:3000/assess-id' \
--form 'image=@"/path/to/your/image.png"' \
-H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Example in Python

import requests

url = 'http://localhost:3000/assess-id'
headers = {
    'x-api-key': 'YOUR_API_KEY'
}
files = {
    'image': open('/path/to/your/image.png', 'rb')
}

response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, files=files)
print("Response:", response.json())
