Make Issuer metadata normative

Open paulbastian opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

As I stated in the WG Call, I believe that credential_configuration_id is the better choice. In general, I have trouble understanding how OpenID4VCI works well without metadata, as the Wallet needs to known:

  • the credential endpoint
  • supported proof types
  • supported credentials and formats
  • display data for the issuer and the credential

Therefore I believe in productive environment it will be very common that the Issuer has the ability to host metadata.

As stated in #219 I believe that Credential Issuer metadata should be mandatory, it just doesn't make sense to me with the current specification otherwise.
