Generating an Issuer DID for the Main Network

Question

How can I generate a DID for the Main network?

Answer

To generate an issuer DID for the Main network, update the ISSUER_API_IDENTITY_NETWORK variable in the .env-api file to main. Afterward, restart the Docker containers (issuer_api-ui, issuer_ui, issuer_notifications, and issuer_pending_publisher) to ensure the new configuration is applied.

Wrong answer:

Simply changing the network name in the .env-api file to any network you wish to use without properly configuring the network settings or ensuring the network supports the issuer node's requirements is sufficient. There's no need to restart the Docker containers or verify the network's compatibility with the issuer node's operations.
