Deactivate a DID
Follow these instructions to update an existing
did:cheqd entry on cheqd ledger.⚠️ Before you begin...
Construct your
payload.json file like this:{
"kms": "local",
"alias": "deactivate-my-did",
"document": {
"id": "did:cheqd:testnet:3e6bd814-6851-4c8a-b114-c64f035ef590",
"verificationMethod": [
{
"id": "did:cheqd:testnet:3e6bd814-6851-4c8a-b114-c64f035ef590#key-1",
"type": "Ed25519VerificationKey2020",
"controller": "did:cheqd:testnet:3e6bd814-6851-4c8a-b114-c64f035ef590",
"publicKeyMultibase": "z2yJuNbhoUpRn7ypAugSLzkCc8QEw146RJ8DD3jzCZQ6A"
}
]
},
"versionId": "<uuid>", // optional
"keys": [
{
"publicKeyHex": "074035480cdcf09c33b1e8066deb55c75822c8c3b27f1c100717eb413bc08e06",
"privateKeyHex": "84ecb7d289dd5c5e82071f8a16503ba5d7b5b3174a619186f430918a6ab00e3b074035480cdcf09c33b1e8066deb55c75822c8c3b27f1c100717eb413bc08e06",
"kid": "074035480cdcf09c33b1e8066deb55c75822c8c3b27f1c100717eb413bc08e06",
"type": "Ed25519"
}
],
"fee": {
"amount": [{
"denom": "ncheq",
"amount": "10000000000"
}],
"gas": "400000",
"payer": "cheqd1rnr5jrt4exl0samwj0yegv99jeskl0hsxmcz96"
}
}
Where importantly:
denom: ncheq (smallest denomination classification)amount: 10000000000 (This is 10 CHEQ by default and will not work with a different value)
Then try running the command below to deactivate the
did:veramo execute -m cheqdDeactivateIdentifier --argsFile path/to/payload.json
If you would like to fetch the deactivated DIDDoc, execute the
resolve command as outlined here. You can check if didDocumentMetadata has the deactivated flag set to true.Last modified 2mo ago
