# Report a funnel-progress snapshot (GET-87)

> Best-effort telemetry from the hosted-capture screen — powers "know when/where someone abandons a verification". Same trust model as `/captures`/`/answers`: the path's token is the credential.

Sent via `navigator.sendBeacon` (so it can fire from an unload handler) or `fetch` with `keepalive`; beacons default to `Content-Type: text/plain`, which the server parses as JSON regardless.

**Semantics:** each call is the LATEST snapshot of the funnel — it OVERWRITES the previous one (not an event log). When `kind: 'abandoned'`, the server additionally attempts to flip status to `abandoned`; the transition only applies from `pending`/`partially_captured` — on any other current status (including expired) the snapshot still lands and the call still succeeds, the transition is just silently skipped. A later capture on an `abandoned` verification resurrects it to `partially_captured` like any other.

**Privacy:** only the declared fields are ever stored; unknown extra keys are dropped silently, never a 400.

**Returns:** `204` — no body.

    # rial-platform — Verifications API

    HTTP control plane for the rial-platform verifications-service:
    creating verifications, capturing media against them, finalising
    cases for batch analysis, and the operator-facing dashboard.

    ## Audience

    - **Tenants** integrating rial into a claims / verification flow —
      use the operator-issued API key and call `POST /v1/verifications`,
      then send the returned `capture_url` to your end-user.
    - **The dashboard SPA** (`app.get-rial.com`) — same surface,
      authenticated via the `rial_session` cookie.
    - **The WhatsApp bot (rialclaw)** — signs requests with HMAC
      (`X-Bot-Auth`), carries the target tenant in the body.
    - **End-user browsers** capturing photos against a fresh
      verification — authenticated by possession of the path `:token`
      alone (the token IS the credential, see ADR-0002).

    ## Auth modes

    - `cookieSession` — `rial_session` cookie set by Google OAuth at
      `/v1/auth/google/callback`. Dashboard browsers.
    - `bearerApiKey` — `Authorization: Bearer pk_live_<…>` API key,
      tenant-scoped. Server-to-server integrations.
    - `captureToken` — possession of the verification id (`vfy_…`)
      in the URL path authenticates the SPA capture flow. Same trust
      model as Stripe payment intent client_secret.
    - `botHmac` — `X-Bot-Auth: <hmac>` from the WhatsApp bot.

    ## State machine

    A verification's status: `pending` → `partially_captured` →
    `completed` | `expired` | `failed`. State transitions emit
    domain events on the internal EventBridge bus; webhook events
    are translated from those and delivered to the tenant's
    configured `webhook_url` (HMAC-signed via the per-tenant
    `webhook-signing` secret). `pending`/`partially_captured` can
    also side-branch to `abandoned` — reported by the capture screen
    via `POST /v1/verifications/:token/progress` when the end user
    leaves before finishing. It is not terminal: a later capture
    resurrects the row to `partially_captured` like any other, and no
    webhook event fires for the transition.

    ## Conventions

    - Wire format is **snake_case JSON** in both directions; the
      service maps to camelCase internally.
    - Errors are `{error: {code, message, fields?}}` — `code` is
      the stable string SDKs branch on; `message` is human-readable
      English; `fields` is present only on `invalid_request`
      validation failures.
    - IDs are ULIDs with type prefixes: `vfy_`, `cap_`, `tnt_`,
      `walotp_`, `mlk_`.
    - Pagination is opaque-cursor: client passes back whatever
      `next_cursor` the previous page returned; absent means done.

    ## Out of scope here

    - Webhook payloads delivered to tenant URLs — those are
      documented separately under `docs/webhook-events.md`. This
      spec covers only the inbound HTTP surface, not the outbound
      HTTP rial → tenant calls.
    - Internal EventBridge events on the `rial-platform-events` bus
      (`verification.created`, `verification.case.completed`, …) —
      consumer-internal, not part of the public contract.
