Set up your PV service redirect URL

The Redirect URL setting is optional. If entered, KWS redirects the parent to this URL after they successfully verify their identity. For example, you might wish to redirect the parent to a webpage where they can manage their child’s permissions in your app.

If you do not specify a redirect URL, KWS displays a verification success message within the PV service web page:

No redirect

Restrictions:

  • The redirect URL must be in this format: https://your.domain.com/your/path
  • A valid web resource must exist at the provided URL.
  • Your redirect URL should not be used to determine the result of the verification. You should use a webhook to determine the result.

NOTE: The information in the redirect URL is not signed and may be modified by the parent.

Set up your customer support URL

This is the URL for the 'please let us know' link in the verification email to parents:

Customer support

Restrictions:
