Inquiry Model Lifecycle

An inquiry wraps a single interaction with your customer through a single use case.

Statuses

Inquiry statuses allow you to track where individuals are in the process, and status changes trigger your configured webhooks.

inquiry-statuses

Inquiries change statuses when:

  1. Your customer proceeds through their inquiry: starting a verification or completing the flow.
  2. Post-inquiry workflows apply business logic to automatically decision the inquiry or mark for manual review.
  3. Your organization members manually change the status of an inquiry.
  4. The inquiry expires.

needs_review / approved / declinedinquiry.marked-for-review / inquiry.approved / inquiry.declinedThese optional statuses most likely occur after the user has finished the inquiry. If you apply any post-inquiry processing in Persona (workflows or manual review), listen to these statuses to know how the user should proceed.
