Determine what version of reCAPTCHA you need

There are two versions of reCAPTCHA

reCAPTCHA v2: Classic experience

If a user’s behavior is suspicious, reCAPTCHA v2 will provide a challenge, adding friction, so that the user can prove that they are indeed human. This version of reCAPTCHA is what most people are familiar with, as we have seen, images or audio challenges.

reCAPTCHA v3: Risk scoring

{
    "recaptcha": {
      "success": true,
      "challenge_ts": "2022-12-22T10:45:07Z",
      "hostname": "inspector.arengu.com",
      "score": 0.9
    }
}

Removes friction by monitoring user activity on your website to detect abusive traffic. It provides administrators with a score, so they can choose appropriate action. reCAPTCHA v3 will need context of your user’s behavior, it is highly advisable to include reCAPTCHA on forms as well as in the background of pages for analytics.
