Verification Response

Verification Response is the data returned for external data request calls. As we add new features, the Verification Response may change its format. To make it easy for users and other developers to work with different formats, we have implemented versioning support. This document lists all the versions of the Verification Response that have ever existed and will be updated whenever we make a new change to the format.
