Manage watchlist members

Watchlist members can be accessed by opening a respective watchlist. Members are listed in a plane table which is divided into discrete pages that are limited to display maximum of 100 members. When the limit is reached, members are displayed on the next page and the pages numbers are shown on the bottom of the page. The pagination helps you to navigate among multiple members.

⚠️ To enable taking photos in the SmartFace Station, you need to set configuration parameter DOT_FACE_CAMERA_ENABLED during the SmartFace deployment and setup secure (HTTPS) connection to the SmartFace Station.

⚠️ Face not found on the uploaded image

It is possible that SmartFace Platform does not detect a face on the uploaded image due to the bad conditions for facial recognition (insufficient lightning, wrong angle, small size of the face on the image etc.). In such case, the system will inform you that the face is not detected on the image.

Manage watchlist member labels

In the current version of SmartFace Station is possible to add more information about watchlist members in watchlist member´s detail. Labels are set of unique key value pairs - each label consists of a key-label and a key-value. This step requires manual changes in the configuration files on the web server or via REST API.

Manage watchlist member labels via configuration file .env

To add or change the watchlist member´s labels:

  1. Go to the location where you installed the SmartFace Station. For example, C:\Program Files (x86)\SmartFace Station\.

  2. Open the .env configuration file.

  3. Add new labels (e.g. Date of birth and Tax number).

ℹ️ Note that a key-label can be managed through the configuration file. WATCHLIST_MEMBER_LABEL is displayed on the SmartFace Station. A key-value can be managed only through the SmartFace Station or REST API.
WATCHLIST_MEMBER_KEY_0=date
WATCHLIST_MEMBER_LABEL_0=Date of birth
 
WATCHLIST_MEMBER_KEY_1=tax_number
WATCHLIST_MEMBER_LABEL_1=Tax number
  1. After you completed the changes, restart the SmartFace Station services:

    • Go to the Task Manager and select the Services tab.

    • Right-click on the specific service (SFStation) and choose Restart.

  2. After restarting the SmartFace Station service, you will be able to add values to the created or changed watchlist member labels directly in the web application in watchlist member´s detail

Manage watchlist member labels via REST API

The WachlistMember entity allows you to set watchlist member labels (key-label and key- value) via REST API. For example: labels Date of birth and Tax number

"labels": [
    {
      "key": "date",
      "value": "12/09/1994"
    }
    {
      "key": "tax_number",
      "value": "123456"
    }
 ]
⚠️ There is a possibility to manage labels via REST API in WachlistMember entity. To display the same labels in SmartFace Station, it is necessary to maintain consistency with the .env configuration file.
