1 Introduction

Important: The MyID Lifecycle API is now deprecated, and is in the process of being replaced by the MyID Core API. See the Lifecycle API support section in the Release Notes for more information.

The MyID^® Lifecycle API allows you to add and update users in the MyID database by sending XML documents to a web service. You can also request credentials that can then be collected from any MyID card issuing station.

You cannot use the Lifecycle API to request mobile credentials; instead, you must use the Credential Web Service. See the Credential Web Service guide for details.
