ThreatMetrix Reason Code node
Analyzes the response from the ThreatMetrix Session Query node and checks to see if an individual reason code has been returned. These reason codes correspond to the rule names you configured in LexisNexis Dynamic Decision Platform (DDP) using the ThreatMetrix console.
The ThreatMetrix Reason Code node enable you to dynamically configure outcomes and manage journeys quickly. Often this node is used in place of the ThreatMetrix Review Status node.
A typical journey using ThreatMetrix Reason Code node is shown here:
In the journey shown, the ThreatMetrix Reason Code node is configured with the Firefox reason code to appropriately route the flow to a step-up authentication node.
Properties
