Verifiable Credentials Issuance

Social Registry can issue credentials in the form of Verifiable Credentialsarrow-up-right (VC). Upon authentication, these can be downloaded into the beneficiary's digital wallet or printed on paper as a QR code. These credentials indicate that the individual is the member of the Social Registry. Credentials are sometimes also referred to as e-cards, Farmer Registry e-Card, etc.

Feature and functionality

  • Social Registry exposes OpenID for VCIarrow-up-right APIs. A wallet can use these APIs to retrieve the VCs.

  • The content inside the VC can be configured without modifying the code.

  • Any functional/foundational ID can be configured for authentication. For example, if the Registry contains National IDs (or National ID tokens) of individuals, and a valid eSignet authentication mechanism (or similar) exists against the given National ID, then the credential can be issued.

    • Future possibilities: If the Social Registry generates a unique ID, then that can be used to authenticate and retrieve the credential.
