Iss -> Iss: 1. generate QR code.
W -> Iss: 2. scan QR code.
W -> CI: 3. obtains Credential Issuer's metadata
W-> AE: 4. obtains Authorization Server's metadata
group obtaining Access Token\nvalid for the Issuance of a specific Credential
W -> AE: 5. Authorization Request\nw/ scope indicating a credential-requested-be-issued
note over AE: 6. User identification/authentication\ncould be different IAL
return 7. code
W -> TE: 8. Token Request
return 9. Access Token valid for the issuance of a certain credential
end
group Credential Issuance
W -> CI: 10. Credential Request w/Access Token and a proof\nthat the user controls the key material that the issued Credential will be bound to.
CI -> W: 11. Issues Verifiable Credential, bound to a key material presented in step 10
end

# Pre-Authorized Code Flow
```plantuml

end box
participant "Issuer\nWeb App" as Iss
box Authorization Endpoint
participant "Token Endpoint" as TE
end box
box Credential Issuer
participant "Credential Endpoint" as CI
end box
hide footbox
U -> Iss: 1. User identification/authentication\n(data upload using (selfie, etc.)\ncould be different IAL
Iss -> CI: 2. uploads the data
return 3. pre-authorized code
Iss -> Iss: 4. generate QR code\nwith pre-authorized code.
W -> Iss: 5. scan QR code.
W -> CI: 6. obtains Credential Issuer's metadata
W-> TE: 7. obtains Authorization Server's metadata
group obtaining Access Token\nvalid for the Issuance of a specific Credential
W -> TE: 8. Token Request with pre-authorized code
return 9. Access Token valid for the issuance of a certain credential
end
group Credential Issuance (same steps as authorization code flow)
W -> CI: 10. Credential Request w/Access Token and a proof\nthat the user controls the key material that the issued Credential will be bound to.
CI -> W: 11. Issues Verifiable Credential, bound to a key material presented in step 10
