Service activation

Before another party can interact with you, they will first need to find your endpoints. The discovery service in the Nuts node can help you. The Nuts node can act as both server and client. From a use case definition you'll receive the following information/files:

• Discovery Service Definition. A file that contains the ID, server address, allowed DID methods and Presentation Definition for the discovery service. The Presentation Definition lists a number of constraints. The constraint identifiers can be used as additional search parameters.
• Use case specific endpoints. Endpoint types like: FHIR, notification, etc. These have to be added through the additional registration parameters.

Example:

{
   "id": "coffeecorner",
   "did_methods": ["web", "nuts"],
   "endpoint": "https://example.com/discovery/coffeecorner",
   "presentation_max_validity": 36000,
   "presentation_definition": {
     "id": "coffeecorner2024",
     "format": {
       "ldp_vc": {
         "proof_type": [
           "JsonWebSignature2020"
         ]
       },
       "jwt_vp": {
         "alg": ["ES256"]
       }
     },
     "input_descriptors": [
       {
         "id": "NutsOrganizationCredential",
         "constraints": {
           "fields": [
             {
               "path": [
                 "$.type"
               ],
               "filter": {
                 "type": "string",
                 "const": "NutsOrganizationCredential"
               }
             },
             {
               "id": "organization_name",
               "path": [
                 "$.credentialSubject.organization.name"
               ],
               "filter": {
                 "type": "string"
               }
             },
             {
               "path": [
                 "$.credentialSubject.organization.city"
               ],
               "filter": {
                 "type": "string"
               }
             }
           ]
         }
       }
     ]
   }
 }

The constraint for organization name (organization_name) can be used as search parameter.
