Once the end user has signed, they will be redirected to the redirect URL provided to IDkollen by you, including the very same "id" as a request parameter that can be used in the Collect step. If the parameter "refId" was used in the request, it will also be included as a request parameter.

A whole domain may also be whitelisted and sent with each request, but must for security reasons be whitelisted first. Multiple domains may be whitelisted. Please provide your whitelisted URLs by emailing us at support@idkollen.se.

ParameterDescription

errorAn error code describing the reason for why the sign failed.

The error may be one of the following values:

CodeDescription
AUTH_FAILEDA generic code for any kind of failure.
CANCELLEDThe authentication was cancelled either by the user or the partner.
INVALID_IDThe ID has expired or is otherwise invalid.
INTERNAL_ERRORAn internal error occurred causing the authentication to fail.
SESSION_TIMEOUTThe authentication expired or timed out.
UNSUPPORTED_CLIENTThe client used for the authentication is not supported.

New error codes may be added in the future without prior notice. The partner should therefore handle unknown error codes in their implementations.
