# Redirection Guide

Veriff Redirection solution allows you to **redirect your end-users to Veriff web flow**.

***→*** *If you are interested in implementing Veriff’s verification flow using WebViews, see* [*Embedding in Android and iOS WebViews*](/v1/docs/embedding-in-android-and-ios-webviews-1)

---

## Requirements and prerequisites

### Prerequisites

- You have an active account with Veriff (see the [Getting Started](/v1/docs/getting-started) section)
- You have an integration with Veriff (see the [Getting Started](/v1/docs/getting-started) section)
- You have set up webhook(s) to get replies from Veriff (see the [Webhooks](/v1/docs/webhooks-guide) section)

- You have integrated a solution that allows you to create `session URL`s for your end-users (using the API [POST /sessions](https://devdocs.veriff.com/apidocs/v1sessions) call or [Javascript SDK](/v1/docs/javascript-sdk-1))

---

## Add SDK to the project

### **Step 1:** Create a session URL

You need to have a Veriff `session URL `generated before initializing the SDK.

You have two options:

- see the [POST /sessions](https://devdocs.veriff.com/apidocs/v1sessions) in API documentation to learn how to generate a `session URL `via API call
- use the [JavaScript SDK](/v1/docs/javascript-sdk-1) to create the `session URL`

### **Step 2: Redirect the end-user to the flow**

After receiving the `session URL` you can redirect end-users there by using following function:

```javascript
window.location.href = url;
```

### What happens after the end-user leaves the flow?

When a session is canceled or finished, we try to **redirect the end-user to the callback URL**, or **close the browser** if the **callback URL is not present**.

---

## Verification session decision

Veriff returns info about the verification session decision, extracted data, registries checks etc via **webhooks**. You need to set up webhooks and tie them to your system.

→ *See Webhooks Guide > [Set up webhooks](https://veriff-dev-documentation.document360.io/docs/webhooks-guide#set-up-webhooks) sub-section for detailed overview of the setup process*

---

## Customize the SDK

> [!NOTE]
> SDK customization is optional

In the redirection flow, it is possible to customize the end-user **interface language**.

### User interface language settings

It is possible to use the `lang` parameter to change the language. To change it, add the lang as query parameter to the URL:

```javascript
https://magic.veriff.me/v/{sessionURLtheEndUserIsRedirectedTo}?lang=es
```

*→ See* [*Supported languages in SDKs*](/v1/docs/sdk-guide#supported-languages) *article for more info*
