Claims Reference

In DID Connect, a 'claim' is a specific piece of information or an action that your application requests from a user's digital wallet. These requests are the building blocks of any interaction, allowing you to perform actions ranging from simple authentication to complex, multi-step workflows. You can request a single claim or combine multiple claims in one session to gather all necessary information at once.

This section serves as a central directory for all available claim types. Each page provides a detailed explanation, parameter specifications, and practical code examples.

For a step-by-step guide on how to implement these requests in your application, please see our Requesting Claims guide.
