Java lightweight client library for Incognia APIs.
Incognia API Java Client is available on Incognia's Maven Repository. We provide 2 artifact ids: incognia-api-client
and incognia-api-client-shaded
.
incognia-api-client-shaded
includes all of our dependencies shaded into a single jar, so you don't need to worry about dependency conflicts.
Add our maven repository
<repository>
<id>incognia</id>
<url>https://repo.incognia.com/java</url>
</repository>
And then add the artifact incognia-api-client
or incognia-api-client-shaded
as a dependency:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.incognia</groupId>
<artifactId>incognia-api-client</artifactId>
<version>3.1.0</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.incognia</groupId>
<artifactId>incognia-api-client-shaded</artifactId>
<version>3.1.0</version>
</dependency>
Add our maven repository
repositories {
maven {
url 'https://repo.incognia.com/java'
}
}
And then add the dependency
dependencies {
implementation 'com.incognia:incognia-api-client:3.1.0'
}
OR
dependencies {
implementation 'com.incognia:incognia-api-client-shaded:3.1.0'
}
We support Java 8+.
Before calling the API methods, you need to create an instance of the IncogniaAPI
class.
IncogniaAPI api = IncogniaAPI.init("your-client-id", "your-client-secret");
This will create a singleton instance of the IncogniaAPI class, which will handle token renewal automatically. You should reuse this instance throughout your application.
After calling init
, you can get the singleton instance simply calling IncogniaAPI.instance()
.
If you use a dependency injection framework, you can create a singleton bean for the IncogniaAPI
class. Below are some examples using common java frameworks:
Spring Boot:
@Configuration
public class IncogniaAPIConfig {
@Value("${incognia.client-id}")// change this to your property name
private String clientId;
@Value("${incognia.client-secret}") //change this to your property name
private String clientSecret;
@Bean
@Scope(value = ConfigurableBeanFactory.SCOPE_SINGLETON)
public IncogniaAPI incogniaAPI() {
return IncogniaAPI.init(clientId, clientSecret);
}
}
Micronaut:
@Factory
public class IncogniaAPIFactory {
@Singleton
//change the @Value to your property name
public IncogniaAPI incogniaAPI(@Value("${incognia.client-id}") String clientId,
@Value("${incognia.client-secret}") String clientSecret) {
return IncogniaAPI.init(clientId, clientSecret);
}
}
The implementation is based on the Incognia API Reference.
Authentication is done transparently, so you don't need to worry about it.
If you are curious about how we handle it, you can check the TokenAwareNetworkingClient
class
This method registers a new signup for the given request token and address, returning a SignupAssessment
, containing the risk assessment and supporting evidence:
IncogniaAPI api = IncogniaAPI.init("client-id", "client-secret");
try {
Address address =
Address.builder()
.structuredAddress(
StructuredAddress.builder()
.countryCode("US")
.countryName("United States of America")
.locale("en-US")
.state("NY")
.city("New York City")
.borough("Manhattan")
.neighborhood("Midtown")
.street("W 34th St.")
.number("20")
.complements("Floor 2")
.postalCode("10001")
.build())
.coordinates(new Coordinates(40.74836007062138, -73.98509720487937))
.build();
RegisterSignupRequest signupRequest = RegisterSignupRequest.builder()
.address(address)
.requestToken("request token")
.build();
SignupAssessment assessment = api.registerSignup(signupRequest);
} catch (IncogniaAPIException e) {
//Some api error happened (invalid data, invalid credentials)
} catch (IncogniaException e) {
//Something unexpected happened
}
It's also possible to register a signup without an address:
IncogniaAPI api = IncogniaAPI.init("client-id", "client-secret");
try {
RegisterSignupRequest signupRequest = RegisterSignupRequest.builder()
.requestToken("request token")
.build();
SignupAssessment assessment = api.registerSignup(signupRequest);
} catch (IncogniaAPIException e) {
//Some api error happened (invalid data, invalid credentials)
} catch (IncogniaException e) {
//Something unexpected happened
}
This method registers a new web signup for the given request token, returning a SignupAssessment
, containing the risk assessment and supporting evidence:
IncogniaAPI api = IncogniaAPI.init("client-id", "client-secret");
try {
RegisterWebSignupRequest webSignupRequest = RegisterWebSignupRequest.builder()
.requestToken("request token")
.build();
SignupAssessment assessment = api.registerWebSignup(webSignupRequest);
} catch (IncogniaAPIException e) {
//Some api error happened (invalid data, invalid credentials)
} catch (IncogniaException e) {
//Something unexpected happened
}
This method registers a new login for the given request token and account, returning a TransactionAssessment
, containing the risk assessment and supporting evidence.
This method also includes some overloads that do not require optional parameters, like externalId
.
IncogniaAPI api = IncogniaAPI.init("client-id", "client-secret");
try {
RegisterLoginRequest registerLoginRequest =
RegisterLoginRequest.builder()
.requestToken("request token")
.accountId("account id")
.externalId("external id")
.evaluateTransaction(true) // can be omitted as it uses true as the default value
.customProperties(Map.of(
"custom-property-key", "custom-property-value",
"custom-double-property-key", 1.0))
.build();
TransactionAssessment assessment = api.registerLogin(registerLoginRequest);
} catch (IncogniaAPIException e) {
//Some api error happened (invalid data, invalid credentials)
} catch (IncogniaException e) {
//Something unexpected happened
}
This method registers a new web login for the given request token and account, returning a TransactionAssessment
, containing the risk assessment and supporting evidence.
IncogniaAPI api = IncogniaAPI.init("client-id", "client-secret");
try {
RegisterWebLoginRequest webLoginRequest =
RegisterWebLoginRequest.builder()
.accountId("account id")
.externalId("external id")
.requestToken("request-token")
.evaluateTransaction(true) // can be omitted as it uses true as the default value
.build();
TransactionAssessment assessment = api.registerWebLogin(webLoginRequest);
} catch (IncogniaAPIException e) {
//Some api error happened (invalid data, invalid credentials)
} catch (IncogniaException e) {
//Something unexpected happened
}
This method registers a new payment for the given request token and account, returning a TransactionAssessment
, containing the risk assessment and supporting evidence.
This method also includes some overloads that do not require optional parameters, like externalId
and addresses
.
IncogniaAPI api = IncogniaAPI.init("client-id", "client-secret");
try {
Address address = Address address =
Address.builder()
.structuredAddress(
StructuredAddress.builder()
.countryCode("US")
.countryName("United States of America")
.locale("en-US")
.state("NY")
.city("New York City")
.borough("Manhattan")
.neighborhood("Midtown")
.street("W 34th St.")
.number("20")
.complements("Floor 2")
.postalCode("10001")
.build())
.coordinates(new Coordinates(40.74836007062138, -73.98509720487937))
.build();
Map<AddressType, Address> addresses = Map.of(
AddressType.SHIPPING, address
AddressType.BILLING, address);
List<PaymentMethod> paymentMethods = new ArrayList<>();
paymentMethods.add(
PaymentMethod.builder()
.creditCardInfo(
CardInfo.builder()
.bin("123456")
.expiryMonth("10")
.expiryYear("2028")
.lastFourDigits("4321")
.build())
.type(PaymentType.CREDIT_CARD)
.build());
RegisterPaymentRequest registerPaymentRequest =
RegisterPaymentRequest.builder()
.requestToken( "request-token")
.accountId("account-id")
.externalId("external-id")
.addresses(addresses)
.evaluateTransaction(true) // can be omitted as it uses true as the default value
.paymentValue(PaymentValue.builder().currency("BRL").amount(10.0).build())
.paymentMethods(paymentMethods)
.build();
TransactionAssessment assessment = api.registerPayment(registerPaymentRequest);
} catch (IncogniaAPIException e) {
//Some api error happened (invalid data, invalid credentials)
} catch (IncogniaException e) {
//Something unexpected happened
}
Turning off the risk assessment evaluation allows you to register a new transaction (Login or Payment), but the response (TransactionAssessment
) will be empty. For instance, if you're using the risk assessment only for some payment transactions, you should still register all the other ones: this will avoid any bias on the risk assessment computation.
To register a login or a payment without evaluating its risk assessment, you should use the evaluateTransaction
boolean set to false
Example:
RegisterLoginRequest registerLoginRequest =
RegisterLoginRequest.builder()
.requestToken("request token")
.accountId("account id")
.externalId("external id")
.evaluateTransaction(false)
.build();
Would return an empty risk assessment response:
{}
This method registers a feedback event for the given identifiers (represented in FeedbackIdentifiers
) related to a signup, login or payment.
IncogniaAPI api = IncogniaAPI.init("client-id", "client-secret");
try {
Instant timestamp = Instant.now();
client.registerFeedback(
FeedbackEvent.ACCOUNT_TAKEOVER,
timestamp,
FeedbackIdentifiers.builder()
.requestToken("request-token")
.accountId("account-id")
.externalId("external-id")
.signupId("c9ac2803-c868-4b7a-8323-8a6b96298ebe")
.build();
} catch (IncogniaAPIException e) {
//Some api error happened (invalid data, invalid credentials)
} catch (IncogniaException e) {
//Something unexpected happened
}
Every assessment response (TransactionAssessment
and SignupAssessment
) includes supporting evidence in a generic Map<String, Object>
.
You can find all available evidence here.
Every method call can throw IncogniaAPIException
and IncogniaException
.
IncogniaAPIException
is thrown when the API returned an unexpected http status code. You can retrieve it by calling the getStatusCode
method in the exception,
along with the getPayload
method, which returns the api response payload, which might include additional details.
IncogniaException
represents unknown errors, like serialization/deserialization errors.
