Resolve a DID

Resolving a DID refers to the process of retrieving the DID document associated with a Decentralized Identifier. The DID Document contains important information such as public keys, authentication methods, service endpoints, and more.

Retrieving the DID Document

When resolving a DID, make sure you are passing the DID URI to the resolver function.

  "verificationMethod": [
    {
      "id": "did:dht:cm1yqfjzfdtauh33nauwf3sqsijqziwrydicr8dbtho3cucb9nno#0",
