How to add identity verification for a bulk link initiator?

Identity verification for the initiator
While accessing the bulk link, the initiator is prompted to enter their name and email address. After submitting these details, the initiator is directed to complete identity verification before proceeding to the document.
BoldSign automatically compares the initiator’s name with the name on the uploaded identification document. If the names do not match, the initiator may not be able to access the document. Ensure the initiator’s name exactly matches the identification document and avoid using nicknames or abbreviations.
