Basic setup

Unlike other verification types, which return a single key/value pair, background checks return two – one pair for the name of your policy, and the second pair for the result of the background check. 

Partner Label Key Example Value
background.criminal.profile.name background.criminal.profile.example_pro
background.criminal.profile.result true

 

If you have a single background check policy you can build your work flow using the value of "background.criminal.profile.result" only.

The name of the policy (value of background.criminal.profile.name) is useful if:

  • you have multiple profiles used in the same workflow and you want to differentiate between them (see below)
  • you have multiple profiles with Evident to be used in different Fountain workflows and you want to double check you used the correct one

 

Values returned

With background checks the results indicates if policy violations have been found, therefore

Value Meaning
true Policy violations found
false Background check clear

 

Running multiple policies

In the rare case you have two policies checked at the same time there will be two more partner label key/value pairs:

Partner Label Key Example Value
background.criminal.profile_2.name background.criminal.profile.example_all
background.criminal.profile_2.result true
