Credential Issuance

This flow is used to obtain a credential from a credential issuer. Each step in the flow is imported from the related file which is named with a sequential number.

There's a fork in the flow which is based on the type of the credential that is being requested. If the credential is an eID, the flow takes a different path than if it is not an eID. This is due to the fact that eID credentials require a different authorization flow than other credentials, which is accomplished by a strong authentication method like SPID or CIE. Credentials instead require a simpler authorization flow and they require other credentials to be presented in order to be issued.

The supported credentials are defined in the entity configuration of the issuer which is evaluted and parsed in the evaluateIssuerTrust step.

404 Not Found (CredentialNotEntitledError)

A 404 Not Found response is returned by the credential issuer when the authenticated user is not entitled to receive the requested credential.

Strong authentication for eID issuance (Query Mode)

The eID issuance requires a strong authentication method. Currently SPID (L2), CieID (L2) and CIE+PIN (L3) are supported. The strong authentication method is determined by the IDP hint which is passed to the completeUserAuthorizationWithQueryMode function.

For SPID in production the IDP hint can be found here, under the entityId field. For pre-production environment the IDP hint is https://demo.spid.gov.it'.

For CieID(L2) the IDP hint is https://idserver.servizicie.interno.gov.it/idp/profile/SAML2/POST/SSO" for production and https://collaudo.idserver.servizicie.interno.gov.it/idp/profile/SAML2/POST/SSO for pre-production.

CIE+PIN(L3) requires a different flow due to the physical card presence. Helper functions are exposed to handle it and the documentation can be found here.

The expected result from the authentication process is in provided in the query string as defined in the JWT Secured Authorization Response Mode for OAuth 2.0 (JARM).

Authentication through credentials (Form Post JWT Mode)

When the credential is different than an eID, the flow requires the user to present other credentials in order to obtain the requested one. This is done through the getRequestedCredentialToBePresented followed by the completeUserAuthorizationWithFormPostJwtMode.

The expected result from the authentication process is in form_post.jwt format as defined in JWT Secured Authorization Response Mode for OAuth 2.0 (JARM).
