Block/Unblock customer

Block Types

PERMANENT_BLOCK: Customer cannot be unblocked - however, customer can opt-in to be re-eKYC-ed (Reinitiate Add Customer API w/ the same customerHashID)

TEMPORARY_BLOCK: If the provided reason is not the same as the spec

{
  "status": "BAD_REQUEST",
  "message": "Invalid Reason Provided",
  "errors": [
    "Reason is not valid to Temporarily Block Customer"
  ]
}

{
  "status": "OK",
  "message": "Customer has been Blocked Temporarily",
  "errors": []
}

Customers can be unblocked after being temporarily blocked via API (that is, action=BLOCK).

However, if BLOCK was requested by the NIUM Compliance team, the Client/Customer cannot request to UNBLOCK it via API.

NOTE: The Comments field supports only 255 characters; any longer will receive the below response:

{
  "status": "BAD_REQUEST",
  "message": "Validation failed for input provided",
  "errors": [
    "Maximum length for comment is 255"
  ]
}
