New Delhi: The Health Ministry has launched a new Application Programming Interface (API), through its web portal Co-WIN, called ‘Know Your Customer’s/Client’s Vaccination Status’ (KYC-VS). KYC-VS will enable a verifying entity to know whether a person has been vaccinated against Coronavirus or not, the Union Health Ministry said.
In a release, the Ministry said yesterday that to use this API, an individual needs to enter his/her mobile number and name. “Thereafter, they will get an OTP which they have to enter. In return, Co-WIN will send a response to the verifying entity on the individual’s status of vaccination,” said the release.
