Update a DID

A DID Document provides a way to link a DID with the way the DID subject can be reached, i.e., through public keys, services endpoints, and more. There are several reasons why one might need to update a DID document including adding/deleting/updating service endpoints and keys.

In this guide, we'll demonstrate how to update a DID Document using the Web5 SDK.

Prerequisites

To update a DID, you need access to your full BearerDid.

Adding a Service

To add a new service, you can obtain the list of services from the DID Document, then add your new service to the list.
