Resume enrollment

Enrollment can be interrupted — the app closes, the reader unplugs, the session ends. Resume by asking the server which fingers are already done, then capturing only what’s missing. fetchEnrolled needs no hardware.

val state = session.fetchEnrolled(enrollee) ?: return when (state.enrollmentStatus) { "fully_enrolled" -> return // nothing to do else -> { val done = state.verified.toSet() val remaining = targetPositions.filter { it !in done } // capture only `remaining` — see Enroll a fingerprint } }

What fetchEnrolled tells you

EnrolledFingerprints:

  • verified — positions complete. Skip these.
  • nonVerified — positions captured but still awaiting their verify capture. Finish these with verifyEnrollment.
  • total — count of stored prints for the subject.
  • enrollmentStatus"partially_enrolled" or "fully_enrolled".
  • notes — optional server-supplied enrollment notes.

Detecting a reset

If a finger you expected has vanished from both verified and nonVerified, the backend reset it (verify attempts exhausted). Re-enroll it from scratch: enroll then verifyEnrollment. See Fingerprint enrollment.
