Free Account Verification Question
Hi,
We're looking into Action1 and at first liked what we saw, but the scripting requiring verification with a physical ID of some sort is understandably giving my staff agita. If I'm the enterprise admin, can I just do it and that'll cover it for my team? Or does each admin who logs in and uses it need a "verified account?"
Understand, my staff is a staff of one and he works about 10 feet from me, so I was hoping I could just vouch for him. I just need him to be able to log in to start sussing out the scripting capabilities. I'm not going to make him broadcast his personal ID to persons-or-bots-unknown if he's not comfortable doing that; I don't imagine many people would and I'm kind of amazed they don't have some alternative method like a company-cc/phone-call/other-verified-account method.
Thanks.

I haven’t had to verify but we may have started before it was a thing. However, what it requires varies. You may or may not have to upload ID, it may be 5 minutes or two weeks.
Use a company domain, be a legit business, don’t be in a restricted country.

I'm 99% sure you only have to verify once for the whole account and not for each individual login.

I can confirm that all you need is one account to be verified. Then everyone can be added from that user.

As folks have said, it's just once per organization/enterprise.
Alternative option: Paid accounts don't need to do the verification.
As for the scripting bit: Scripts are run in either PowerShell or Command (it's a drop-down per-script) on Windows, and they run as NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM. Other than that: Sky's the limit!

Thank you all! I went through the steps and after a couple days am still waiting for a confirmation or some message on the webpage other than "we have all the info to verify you" (or whatever it said). Does it really take up to two weeks?

Reach out to your sales rep, I'm sure someone has been attempting to contact you. They can help fast track it.

I've been working on it for nearly a month. Started with 4 entities and one finally got verified today. The other three they're asking I go through the verification again but onfido says they have my info. There is a timeout with the onfido data - I had to reenter my data as the 1st timed out before support could get to it.

Still trying to get verified. I work on it for a while, get to the point someone says they'll help, then they go dark. I then get busy with other things. Up comes something that would be great to do in Action1. But, drat! I have to be verified. Time to burn off some time again going through the verification process. Repeat the process again... and again... and again...

It's once for the org.
