What is the PIN Verification Tool? 

The PIN Verification Tool is a tool intended to assist in verifying customers in real time. This would work as a perfect tool for those using the PIN Routing Call Feature, who need to ensure that users are verified. 

Setup Process

No setup is required for the PIN Verification Tool.  The only requirement is that the contact exists in your CRM platform for the 1stream system to pull up their details. If needed, the number or email can be adjusted manually, but we recommend against that behavior.

In the Experience Settings portion of the 1stream admin panel's Manage Organization page, you will find the option Require Ticket for PIN Verification which will require users to make or tag a ticket before running the code verification. This ensures that the verification details get saved into a ticket each time. 

Want to use your own number?

You can optionally setup your own SMS provider, and you can see our SMS 1stream Integration Section article for more details on that. Please note this requires a potentially lengthy setup with regulators, depending on your country of operation.
