Government & Public Sector API Integration
Citizen identity, documents and multilingual services on India's DPI.
Government and GovTech platforms need to authenticate citizens, verify credentials and deliver services in every Indian language. Aadhaar e-KYC, DigiLocker, API Setu, Bhashini and Aadhaar eSign are pre-built and compliance-ready so you launch citizen-facing services on trusted DPI rails in weeks.
Why Government & Public Sector teams integrate this stack
Public-sector platforms have a constraint most private products do not: they cannot choose their users. A citizen service has to work for someone with an Android phone and limited literacy in a language other than English, not only for the segment that is easy to serve. That shapes the integration stack as much as any regulation does.
The rails below reflect it. Aadhaar e-KYC authenticates citizens against the authoritative source. DigiLocker and API Setu verify credentials against issuing departments rather than against uploaded scans. Aadhaar eSign issues documents that are legally valid without a physical office visit. Voter ID and passport verification add corroboration where eligibility depends on it. And Bhashini delivers the service in 22 Indian languages, including speech — which is what makes it usable by the people most likely to need it.
What shapes the Government & Public Sector integration stack
Language is an access requirement
Bhashini covers 22 languages for text and speech. A translated interface still assumes reading ability; speech does not.
Verify against the issuer
DigiLocker and API Setu return data from the department that issued it, which removes forgery as a category rather than as a detection problem.
Minimise what you collect
Where presence confirmation suffices, Yes/No Aadhaar authentication returns no demographic data at all.
One gateway, many departments
API Setu reaches 1,800+ government APIs under a single integration and auth model, instead of onboarding to each department separately.
What you can ship
- Authenticate citizens with Aadhaar and issue e-signed documents
- Verify credentials against DigiLocker and API Setu registries
- Deliver services in 22 languages with Bhashini translation

Government & Public Sector API integration — FAQs
How many government APIs can we reach?
More than 1,800 through API Setu alone, alongside the individually integrated rails such as Aadhaar, DigiLocker, Vahan and GSTN.
Do citizen-facing services need Aadhaar licensing?
Aadhaar authentication in any mode requires licensed access. It runs under Aeologic's AUA/KUA licence, so departments and GovTech vendors do not need their own.
Can services be delivered in regional languages?
Yes — Bhashini provides translation and speech across 22 Indian languages, applied dynamically rather than through separately maintained localised builds.
