Aadhaar Card eKYC Verification through DigiLocker

Overview

The Aadhaar eKYC process through DigiLocker allows you to verify an employee’s Aadhaar card directly within the application.

Configuration Steps

Step 1: Configure the Mailer Template

Before initiating eKYC, you must configure the mailer template that sends the verification link to the employee.

Navigation Path:

Settings → General Master → Template Library → Mailer Type → Consultant Communication Mailer - Template Details

Steps to Configure:

1. Click on “New Template.”
2. In the Mailer Body, include the tag {{DigiLockerURL}}.
3. Ensure that the tag {{DigiLockerURL}} contains the correct URI link setup in the mail body template.
   • This tag automatically generates the DigiLocker verification link in the email sent to the employee.

 Tip: Double-check that your mailer type and configuration are active before using the eKYC feature.
