Summary

IETF OAuth WG draft (draft-ietf-oauth-sd-jwt-vc) defining how to express verifiable digital credentials with JSON payloads using SD-JWT: the vct credential type, issuer key resolution, status references and type metadata. It is the credential profile used by the EUDI wallet PID and by swiyu. Any ZK proof over such credentials must handle its JSON/base64url encoding and ES256 signatures.
