Configuration

Returns the system configuration.

While the system configuration is not modifiable via the API, it is partially exposed to the API and is important for understanding which parts of the solution are available, how to invoke each component and for retrieving capabilities, reports that reflect properties of instances.

The pattern of referencing configuration instances, rather than specifying types directly, is used throughout the API. Always refer to your system configuration to determine correct reference identifiers for:

  • Credential formats
  • Key algorithms
  • Key storage providers
  • Exchange protocols
  • Revocation methods
  • Datatypes
  • Transport protocols
  • Trust management solutions
  • DID methods
