Authentication
Authentication depends on the credential surface:- Direct AIR endpoints (
initialize-useranddstorage/vcs) use a Partner JWT inx-partner-auth. - AIR calls issuer-hosted
available-vcandissue-vcendpoints withx-api-key. - Public credential-status endpoints do not require authentication.
- Self-hosted admin endpoints use
x-admin-api-key.
For direct issuance, do not put the recipient email in the v1 Partner JWT. Send it in the
POST /auth/initialize-user request body instead. Other operations, such as custom user authentication, have their own claim requirements.
The JWT header must include kid (Key ID) matching a key in your JWKS endpoint and typ: "JWT".
For full setup instructions, key generation, and code examples see Partner Authentication.
Catalog endpoints are public and require no authentication.
API Playground: Requests from the Try it out playground are sent directly from your browser to the API. Your API must allow CORS from your docs origin (e.g. your Mintlify subdomain or custom domain) for the playground to work. If you see 403 from the playground, check that the API allows the request origin and that your Partner JWT is valid.
Credentials
Server-side credential issuance resolves the recipient and stores an issuer-signed, holder-encrypted credential in DStorage. See the Issuance API Reference for theinitialize-user and dstorage/vcs endpoints, request and response details, and code examples.
