About service providers
To integrate iProov’s services into your application or website, start by creating a Service Provider in iPortal.
If you do not have the necessary access, please contact your organization's primary iPortal admin or your Customer Success representative for assistance.
The Service Provider plays a vital role in generating detailed and comprehensive reports.
To ensure clarity and effective management, iProov strongly recommends selecting meaningful names that accurately represent the intended use. (edited)
