DCQL – Delivery service restricted to specific postal codes

In this workflow, a relying party wants to restrict a delivery service to specific postal codes. The verifier requests a PID credential (in dc+sd-jwt format) containing the holder's residential address, and uses DCQL to enforce that the postal code is in an allowed list.

For the underlying DCQL query, diagram and example, see the “Delivery service restricted to specific postal codes” use case in our DCQL concepts article.

Fig 07: Require a PID and an address credential with a postal code matching 43242 or 43243 for eligibility.

Step 1: Get the API Key (Issuer Admin)​

To obtain your API key, please contact [email protected]. Once you have received your API key, enter it in the field below and click the Set API Key button to save it for future use.

Step 2: Create Credential Definition (Issuer Admin)​

To create a credential definition, run the JSON body using the Run button. Alternatively, you can manually copy the JSON and use it in the body of the API request available here.

Note: The kid value is mandatory with trust anchor x509. To obtain the kid value for the respective organisation use the API available here.

From the API response, copy the credentialDefinitionId and id value from the credentialDefinitions array for use in the Step 3.

The issuer can define credential definition for the PID of credential format dc+sd-jwt

Step 3: Issue and Receive Credential (Issuer/Holder)​

The holder of the wallet submits a request for the issuance of a credential by executing the JSON code block below using the Run button in InTime issuance mode. Choose the credential format and replace <credentialDefinitionId> and <id> with the actual values obtained from the previous step. Alternatively, you may use the API available here.

After receiving the response, toggle the button provided to dynamically generate a QR code. The EUDI Wallet/Holder can then accept the credential offer using the Data Wallet (or any other EU Digital Identity Wallet) by either scanning the QR code or directly accessing the credential offer on their mobile device, such as via a browser.

PID​

Person Identification Data (PID) is a standardised European identity credential defined under the EU Digital Identity Framework (eIDAS 2.0). It contains essential personal information including family name, given name, date of birth and address, enabling secure digital identification across EU member states.

Request

Response

After receiving the response, toggle the button provided to dynamically generate a QR code. The EUDI Wallet/Holder can then accept the credential offer using the Data Wallet (or any other EU Digital Identity Wallet) by either scanning the QR code or directly accessing the credential offer on their mobile device, such as via a browser.

Step 4: Create Presentation Definition (Verifier Admin)​

To create a presentation definition for requesting proof, you can run the code block below using the Run button. Alternatively, you can manually copy the code block and use it in the body of the API request provided here.

In this use case, the verifier expresses a requirement for a residential address credential where the postal code is in an allowed list of delivery zones.

Request

Response

Once a presentation definition is created, the presentationDefinitionId can be reused to verify multiple credentials in Step 5.

Step 5: Create Verification Request (Verifier/Relying Party)​

To create the verification request, execute the code block below using the Run button. Alternatively, you can manually copy the JSON and use it in the body of the API available here.

After receiving the response, toggle the button provided to dynamically generate a QR code. The EUDI Wallet/Holder can then accept the verification request using the Data Wallet (or any other EU Digital Identity Wallet) by either scanning the QR code or directly accessing the verification request on their mobile device, such as via a browser.

Request

Response

Users can copy the presentationExchangeId from the JSON response for use in Step 8 to read verification history.

Step 6: Send and Receive Verifiable Presentation (Holder)​

The holder wallet accepts (consents) to send the requested credentials.

  • Receive Verification:
    • Use the vpTokenQrCode(step 5) with the API available here to receive the verification.
    • Copy the presentationId from the JSON response received from Receive Verification for use in Step 6b.
  • Filter Verification:
    • Use that presentationId with the API available here to find matching credentials.
    • Save the <id> and <credentialId> from the response.
  • Send Verification:
    • Use the presentationId, <id> and <credentialId> with the API available here to send the credentials to the verifier.

Step 7: Send and Receive Verifiable Presentation (Verifier/Relying Party)​

  • The Verfier (Relying Party) receives the requested credentials and can verify it. They may read the received credential by executing the Read Verification History API.
  • From the response received, the vpTokenResponse can be decoded using JWT Decoder.
  • From the decoded response, the verifiableCredential inside the 'vp' can be further decoded to view the received credentials.
