ED-ID
ED-ID is a directory designed to allow applications easy programmatic access to data needed for authentication, authorization, application personalization and customization, and programmatic business decision evaluation. See the ED-ID FAQ for more information.
While ED-ID provides the same basic functionality as ED-Auth, namely PID/pass authentication and simple affiliation authorization, ED-ID exists mainly to give privileged accounts access to person information that can otherwise not be publicly viewed. These privileged accounts, called ED-ID Services, are primarily used to look up person data and authorize people on this data. See the ED-ID Schema for the complete listing of person data.
Instructions:
- Getting a new ED-ID service
- Renewing an existing service
- Adding viewable attributes to an existing service
