Entitlements

An Entitlement is a triggerable capability (for example: KYC Onboarding, Derivatives Request, or Proof of Source of Funds) granted to an account.

Most entitlements are triggered by the client application, but some (like Ad Hoc EDD or Request For Information) are exclusively triggered internally by DLT.

Goals

• Preview: Allow clients to fetch all required questionnaires and documents before triggering the workflow, enabling frontends to preload necessary UI elements.
• Control: Give clients explicit control over when workflows start and allow them to track status via webhooks.

High-Level Flow

The Entitlement workflow allows you to request specific capabilities for a user. The process is asynchronous and relies on webhooks to drive the collection of data (questionnaires and documents).

Workflow Steps

1. Trigger Entitlement: Call POST /persons/{id}/entitlement_triggers.
2. Receive Requirements: Listen for the webhook containing the list of questionnaire IDs that must be answered next.
3. Fetch Details: Call GET /questionnaires/{questionnaire_id} to render the form to the user.
4. Upload Documents (Optional): If the form requires files, upload them via POST /persons/{id}/documents and retain the returned Document.id.
5. Submit Answers: Post the answers (referencing document IDs if necessary) to POST /persons/{id}/questionnaires/{questionnaire_id}/response.
6. Handle Updates: The system may send subsequent webhooks requesting further information.
7. Completion: Receive the final completion webhook (success/failure).
