oid4vci-issuer-metadata

To configure Credential Issuer metadata for OID4VCI, you define essential issuer properties like .well-known endpoints, credential_configurations_supported, display properties, and supported proof types so wallets can discover and interact with your service.

Issuer capability discovery in OpenID for Verifiable Credential Issuance is the process where wallets query published metadata to understand supported credential formats, display properties, and proof types before interacting with issuance endpoints.

You expose verifiable credential issuance endpoints via .well-known by publishing specific issuer metadata that adheres to OID4VCI specifications, allowing digital wallets to automatically discover your service's supported credential configurations and capabilities.

You should include proof types and display properties in OID4VCI metadata that match your credential issuer's supported formats, ensuring wallets can accurately render credential displays and submit appropriate cryptographic proofs during issuance.

Yes, you can use this to set up a new digital identity provider for verifiable credentials by guiding you through publishing the necessary OID4VCI metadata so wallets can seamlessly discover and interact with your issuance endpoints.

When configuring OID4VCI issuer metadata, you must ensure strict adherence to the specification's format for credential_configurations_supported and .well-known endpoints, as any deviation can prevent digital wallets from successfully discovering your issuance capabilities.
