Example

The following request retrieves all the identification keys: Operation

 GET /metadata/identification-keys

Result

Let's consider a customer profile which consists of the customer's name, the date of birth, and the external ID (the customer’s ID in an external system such as a CRM). Further assume that a single extension, Contacts, include various attributes such as the phone_number. If you set up the Context Management Server to allow the customer identification via name+birthdate, external ID, or phone number, then the returned result is the following:

 [{"name": "idNameBD", "attributes": ["name", " birthdate"]},
 {"name": "idExt", "attributes": ["external_id"], "unique": true}, 
 {"name": "idPhone", "attributes": ["phone_number"]}
 {"name": "idExtension", "attributes": ["ext.code","ext.date"]}]

Information.png If the identification key was created off an extension, attributes that are part of the extension are prefixed with the extension name. In the previous example, "idExtension" was built on the extension "ext".
