Credential Providers

Inji currently provides support for two credential providers:

1. Download via UIN/VID

2. Download via eSignet

To set up a new provider that can issue VC, it can be accomplished by making a few configuration changes. The configuration details can be found in the mimoto-issuers-config.json property file. This file is maintained separately for each deployment environment. In this repository, each environment's configuration is stored in a dedicated branch specific to that environment.

Refer to mimoto-issuers-config.json of Collab environment.

These values will be used by Inji via Mimoto. Mimoto exposes APIs which is used by the Inji application to fetch and store the issuers and their configurations in the local storage.

• API used to fetch issuers: https://api.mosip.io/v1/mimoto/residentmobileapp/issuers

• API used to fetch issuer's configuration: https://api.mosip.io/v1/mimoto/residentmobileapp/issuers/${issuerId}

In mimoto-issuers-config.json, new providers can be added as per the well-known schema.

After adding the provider in configuration, it will be displayed on the UI on Add new card screen.

• If new provider supports OpenID4VCI protocol, it is recommended to use issuerMachine.ts and EsignetMosipVCItemMachine.ts for workflow to download VC.

• If it doesn't support OpenID4VCI protocol, new state machine needs to be added. Please refer to issuerMachine.ts and EsignetMosipVCItemMachine.ts.

Onboarding Mimoto as OIDC Client for new Issuer:

• Mimoto OIDC client is now added as an optional partner, which can be onboarded through partner onboarder as per requirement.

• In mosip-onboarding itself, there is a script by the name create-signing-certs.sh which creates the certificates as well as the oidckeystore.p12.

• Client ID is created randomly by using the PMS API, and there is no client Secret for that.

• Clients can be renewed upon request, however, this will require some manual adjustments. It is recommended to create a client only once per environment as they do not expire.

• Modifications were made to the install.sh script within the Mimoto software, along with adjustments to the helm charts in the Mimoto repository, in order to facilitate the storage and mounting of the oidckeystore.p12 file.

• For Onboarding the new issuer, the same steps have to be followed and p12 has to be generated.

• Once the p12 file is generated, the existing keystore file should be exported from the Mimoto pod. The newly created p12 file must then be imported and remounted in the Mimoto POD.
