## Step 1: Create Credential Template

As a provider, I can define a credential template so I can share which credentials are supported in my ecosystem with issuers, verifiers, and holders.

I can also specify which issuers are authorized to issue these templates in my trust registry by referencing the credential context.

A credential context is found with a URI.
The credential template includes a context, a json schema, an issuer, and a version.
It is everything that doesn't change about a credential. It's a product abstraction meant to keep things simple for the user.

For the provider, they only care about creating contexts and then hosting them as part of their service.

## Create context from schema
Supply json schema, return a URL of the created context and the created schema

req:
{
"type": VaccineCredential
"schema": {...}
}

res:
{
context_uri: ,
schema_uri:
}

Upload Schema

{
    type = PriceCredential
    json_schema_cred_sub = {}
}

Output:

{
  template_uri: , 
  version:
}

Auto generate LD context from JSON schema

{
 "@version": 1.1,
 "name": "http://ri.gov/firstName",
 "price": "http://ri.gov/price",
 "PriceCredential": "http://ri.gov/PriceCredential",
 "StudentCard": "http://ri.gov/StudentCard"
}

## Step 5: Issue credential

As issuer

### 1. Create Credential Object from Template

req: {
  "templateId": <id>,
  credential_subject: {
    "name": "A green door",
    "price": 12.5
  }
}

res {
  "@context": [
    "https://www.w3.org/2018/credentials/v1",
    "https://www.w3.org/2018/credentials/examples/v1"
  ],
  "id": "http://example.edu/credentials/3732",
  "type": ["VerifiableCredential", "UniversityDegreeCredential"],
  "credentialSubject": {
    "id": "did:example:ebfeb1f712ebc6f1c276e12ec21",
    "degree": {
      "type": "BachelorDegree",
      "name": {}
    }
  }
}

upload json schema

associate with URL and name

{
    "name": "A green door",
    "price": 12.5
}

Generate

{
  "@context": [
   "https://www.w3.org/2018/credentials/v1",
   "http://trinsic.id/contexts/ecosystem_1/v1"
  ],
  "issuer": "did:key",
  "name": "",
  "description": "",
  "type": ["VerifiableCredential", "PriceCredential" ],
  "credentialSubject": {
    "type": "PriceCard",
    "name": "A green door",
    "price": 12.5
  }
}

### Issue credential directly
