Reuse a DID

In this guide, you will learn how to take your Decentralized Identifier (DID) with you to other apps, allowing you to keep your identity consistent across various applications.

Export DID

You will start by exporting your Bearer DID. This method returns a JSON object called a Portable DID, which is a serialized version of your Bearer DID suitable for storage or transfer.

note

Your Portable DID contains private key material. Always store it securely, preferably in a trusted identity wallet or password manager.

Import DID

You can import your Portable DID to an application using the import method.

This converts your Portable DID back into a fully functional Bearer DID, allowing you to use it for various operations, including signing and verifying data.
