When to use

You want to inspect the trust graph around a DID — what credentials they hold, who has issued to them, what schemas they use. The Trust Explorer is the visual front for the Verifier’s Trusted Issuers Registry and the platform’s network/events.

Before you begin

Signed in (any role).

Steps

  1. Open /trust-explorer.
  2. Search for a DID (or click any DID-link in the platform). 3. The page renders:
    • Central node — the DID you searched.
    • Outgoing edges — VCs they have issued (if they are an issuer).
    • Incoming edges — VCs they hold.
    • Trust score — composite metric from AgentTrustRegistry (only meaningful for agent DIDs).
    • Compliance VCs — any compliance VCs the DID holds.
  3. Click any edge to see the underlying credential’s claims (only if it is public or you are authorised).

API endpoints used

The page is a thin client over a few endpoints already documented elsewhere:

  • GET /api/v1/dids/resolve/{did} — central node (§3.1.9).
  • GET /api/v1/credentials?subjectDid={did} — incoming edges.
  • GET /api/v1/credentials?issuerDid={did} — outgoing edges.
  • GET /api/v1/verifier/compliance-vcs?did={did} — compliance VCs (§5.5.3).
  • GET /api/v1/agents/{did} — trust score, autonomy (§6.4).

Verify

You can recreate the same graph manually by stitching the four endpoint responses.

Troubleshooting

If the graph is empty for a known DID, the most common cause is an unresolvable DID (check §3.1.9) or filters that are too tight (clear the filter chips at the top).
