What is a DID?
Decentralized identifiers (DIDs) are unique identifiers that are associated with a digital identity. DIDs are made up of a string of letters and numbers that can be stored on the blockchain and can be used to authenticate that identity.
To create your organization profiles (DIDs) , select Organization Profiles on the left side menu and then click Create Organization Profile.
All of your Organization profiles (DIDs) will be listed on this page.
Many different types of DIDs exist today, they all support the same basic functionality, but they differ in how a DID is created or where and how the DID document is stored and retrieved.These different types of DIDs are known as DID methods. The second part of the DID identifier format—between the first and second colons—is called the DID method name.
Truvera supports 2 types of DID methods did:key and did:cheqd.
did:key
Stored on the user’s device
Only one key pair is attached to this DID type, if your keys get exposed you will need to change the DID and all the credentials associated to it
did:cheqd
Stored on the cheqd blockchain
Multiple key pairs can be attached to this DID type, keys can be rotated as needed
Click on Organization Profiles in the menu, click on the three dots of the DID you want to edit, and select Update DID.
Update the details and select Update DID.
Click on the three dots of the DID you want to export, and select Export DID.
You can export your DID to a wallet or another platform. Create a password to encrypt the file and select Export.
Click on the three dots of the DID you want to delete, and select Delete DID.
Deleting your DID will make it unresolvable. This means that any credentials you issued with it will become invalid and it cannot be looked up on the blockchain anymore. Your associated key pair will also be deleted. This action cannot be undone.
Fill in the Public Name, add the Logo and Public Description you can leave the DID Type to the default setting “cheqd” (learn more about different ). Then select Create Organization Profile.
