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.

Inquiries change statuses when:

  1. Your customer proceeds through their inquiry: starting a verification or completing the flow.
  2. Your organization members approve, decline, or mark the inquiry for review.
  3. The inquiry expires.
