verificationConfidence

verificationConfidence #

The verificationConfidence may be present for serial number objects when an expected serialNumber has been provided in the request. It specifies to which degree the value could be matched to any of the expected serial numbers.

The property can hold the value of either low, medium, or high with the following interpretations:

  • high: The read serial number is exactly identical to the expected serial number or fully contains it.
  • medium: The read serial number is identical to the expected serial number or fully contains it, with an allowed Levenshtein distance of the expected serial number up to 3.
  • low: The read serial number did not match any of the expected serial numbers at all.

Regardless of the returned verification confidence, whenever at least one expected serial number is provided in the request, the serial number object in the response will also contain the expectedSerialNumber, which contains the expected serial number to which the read serial number matches the best.
