REST API

ESSIF REST API functions.

The ESSIF API exposes the necessary endpoints for running the ESSIF specific flows between Issuers (incl. ESSIF Onboarding Services), Holders and Verifiers.

Aligned with the ESSIF terminology, the API is grouped by the User Wallet (wallet API for consumers / natural persons) and Enterprise Wallet (wallet API for organisations / legal entities).

Note that the EBSI/ESSIF specifications are expected to evolve which will be reflected in continuous updates of the proposed APIs.

The following functions are available:

onboard - EBSI onboarding flow, requests a Verifiable Authorization from EOS
authorize - ESSIF authorization flow
register did - registers DID on the EBSI blockchain
create timestamp - creates a timestamp in EBSI ledger
load timestamp by id - loads a timestamp by the timestamp id
load timestamp by hash - loads a timestamp by the transaction hash

Onboard

The /v1/client/onboard endpoint onboards the specified DID to the EBSI blockchain. It runs the ESSIF onboard API and requires a Bearer token, which can be acquired from https://app.preprod.ebsi.eu/users-onboarding.

curl -X 'POST' \
  'https://essif.ssikit.walt.id/v1/client/onboard' \
  -H 'accept: application/json' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '<request-body>'

{
    "bearerToken": "string",
    "did": "string"
}

The VerifiableAuthorization credential string

E.g. Onboard the did = did:ebsi:zYubw2L8tCZSKKpAcMmCY2Q.

curl -X 'POST' \
  'https://essif.ssikit.walt.id/v1/client/onboard' \
  -H 'accept: application/json' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{
