Connections created via oob - unable to send credentials using ConnectionId

Question

Connections created via oob - unable to send credentials using ConnectionId

Closed this issue a year ago · 3 comments

Hello,

When I receive an invitation from the issuer, connection is established. Here,

The holder can send messages to the issuer through the connectionId created through invitation.

But, in the issuer server, the connectionId is nowhere to be found. I can't send back messages from issuer to holder. The conenctionId is different.

One more thing to be noted:

When i receive an invitation from URL using agent.oob.receiveInvitationFromUrl(invitationUrl) the connection received in the backend doesn't have invitationDID.

Again, this goes back the first issue, connections in issuer server is different and holder server is different.

Why is the invitatinDID is undefined? Quite confusing.

Can someone please guide me on this? Thanks.

Note that connectionId value is unique for each agent, so the way to bind two ConnectionRecords from different agents would be their threadId. In the examples you gave, it seems they are not from the same relationship (look at the creation dates: one is 2023-08-31T22:46:41.168Z while the other one is 2023-08-31T22:23:40.471Z, 23 minutes before).

If your holder is able to send messages to the issuer, it means that from its side the connection is completed (so it does not seem to correspond to the one in the example, whose state is 'request-sent'). At issuer side, you can subscribe to BasicMessageStateChanged event, so you can see the received messages and check their connectionId.

But actually it will be more interesting to subscribe to ConnectionStateChanged event if you want to know exactly when the connection with the holder has been established. This binding can be done by checking that a connection corresponds to a given out of band invitation you've created. In AFJ docs you can see a full code example of setting up an event listener for a particular invitation: https://aries.js.org/guides/0.4/tutorials/create-a-connection .

@genaris Thanks for your elaborate reply.

It seems like the issue was happening related to dids of routing keys.

I'm running MobileAgent(holder) - Mediator - Nodejs(Issuer). When the connection is established via a mediator, this happens.

Answer 3 · 2023-09-05T05:42:45.000Z

Fixed the issue :

Added did resolver to the agent configuration:

 resolvers: [
          new IndyVdrIndyDidResolver(),
          new PeerDidResolver(),
          new KeyDidResolver(),
        ],
      })
