Typescript enabled

Thanks to Typescript, all methods attributes and data response are typed, meaning any typescript-enabled editor can take advantage of intellisense and auto-complete:

Response format

Responses have JSONs identical to the original api https://us.incognia.com, however property names will be in camelCase rather than snake_case, including property names in nested objects.

{
  "id": "5e76a7ca-577c-4f47-a752-9e1e0cee9e49",
  "riskAssessment": "low_risk",
  "evidence": {
    "deviceModel": "Moto Z2 Play"
  }
}

Exception handling

Every method call can throw IncogniaApiError and IncogniaError.

IncogniaApiError is thrown when the API returned an unexpected http status code. You can retrieve it by calling the statusCode property, along with the payload property, which returns the API response payload that might include additional details.

IncogniaError represents unknown errors, like serialization/deserialization errors.

const { IncogniaApi, IncogniaApiError } = require('@incognia/api')

try {
  const loginAssessment = await incogniaApi.registerLogin({
    installationId: 'installation_id',
    accountId: 'account_id'
  })
} catch (error) {
  if (error instanceof IncogniaApiError) {
    console.log(error.statusCode)
    console.log(error.payload)
  }
}
