Supported Protocols¶
EUDIPLO is deliberately limited to protocols that are part of the European Digital Identity Wallet (EUDI Wallet) ecosystem. This focused scope reduces implementation complexity, improves long-term maintainability, and ensures a consistent trust model across services.
Rather than being a general-purpose verifiable credentials broker, EUDIPLO aligns strictly with the specifications endorsed by the EU regulatory and technical framework.
Protocols Supported¶
| Protocol | Description |
|---|---|
| OpenID for Verifiable Credential Issuance (OID4VCI) | Enables issuers to deliver verifiable credentials to EUDI Wallets using OAuth-based flows. |
| OpenID for Verifiable Presentations (OID4VP) | Allows services to request and verify credentials presented by EUDI Wallet holders. |
| Selective Disclosure JWT VC (SD-JWT VC) | Data model for credentials allowing selective disclosure of individual claims by the user. |
| OAuth Token Status List | Mechanism for determining revocation or suspension status of issued credentials. |
These standards are evolving in coordination with EU-level pilot projects and working groups. EUDIPLO tracks these developments closely to provide early, stable support as specifications mature.
Why Not More?¶
By limiting scope to official EUDI Wallet protocols, EUDIPLO avoids:
- Incompatibilities with reference implementations
- Bloated code from supporting rarely used formats
- Uncertain trust assumptions from broader ecosystems
This makes EUDIPLO especially suitable for:
- Public sector services integrating with national wallet pilots
- Companies targeting pan-European credential workflows
- Developers seeking a reliable, minimal abstraction layer over complex specs
