DID

Manage DID operation using DID APIs

Please generate access token before proceeding. Once you generated the access_token, you can pass this token as bearer authorization token in the header for all APIs.

Note: Some of these APIs are on-chain APIs which means they need network fee to successfully execute, so make sure that your application wallet address has $hid tokens. Read network fee section for more details.

Entity Studio SSI API base URL: https://api.entity.hypersign.id

There are 3 steps involved in DID creation:

Generate a DID Document: Generate the data structure of the DID document.
Sign a DID Document (optional): Sign the DID Document using verification method.
Register a DID Document (optional) : Registers the signed DID Document on the blockchain network.

Note: You can choose not to register a DID on blockchain, in that case, the DID is concidered as private DID. We support Ed25519VerificationKey2020 for private DIDs. Kindly read difference between private and public DID in this section.

Request Body Parameters

Namespace: DID name space. Possible value is testnet

Optional Parameters

MethodSpecificId: Custom Id string which you want to attach with the DID. Please read did:hid method spec for details about possible format.
Options.keyTypes: We support Ed25519VerificationKey2020, EcdsaSecp256k1RecoveryMethod2020 verification method key types. So only these two are possible values. Read the full specification here.
Options.publicKey: Please pass the options.publickey property only for Ed25519VerificationKey2020 verification method key type. For EcdsaSecp256k1RecoveryMethod2020 , this property can be kept blank. Its value would be publickey (in multi base format)
Options.walletAddress: Please pass options.walletAddress for keyType EcdsaSecp256k1RecoveryMethod2020
Options.chainId: ChainId in HEX format. For example for Etheruem main net, the chain id would be 0x1. This property is only required for keytype EcdsaSecp256k1RecoveryMethod2020

Note: If no optional parameters are provided then, did will be created of verification key method type Ed25519VerificationKey2020

Note: If you want to create DID for blockchain wallet addresses like EVM wallets, Cosmos wallets, you should use keyType as . Read EcdsaSecp256k1RecoveryMethod2020

Register a DID

Registers a Signed DID Document in DID registry. The Gas fee (network fee) for this DID registration will be done by applications' walletAddress.

Request Parameters

didDocument : DID documented generated using /api1/v1/did/create API
verificationMethodId : Verification Method id of referred verification method in the didDocument

Optional Parameters

clientSpec : Wallet specifications which are used to sign the didDocument string. Use eth-personalSign for Metamask and cosmos-ADR036 for Keplr wallet. Learn more about client specifications here.
signature: If didDocument is signed using client wallets (Metamask or Keply) then pass the signature hex string.

Note: Read how to use Metamask to create Hypersign DID.

Resolve a DID

Given a DID Id (example: did:hid:testnet:0x123123123123), this API will resolve the corresponding DID Document from the DID registry (or Hypersign Blockchain).
