Aca-Py Endorsement in Sovrin MainNet?

[romanzoun]

Hello

I have a question: Is it possible to use a aca-py agent as andorser on Sovrin MainNet? Currently we use builder and Staging, but someone said, on MainNet the aca-py protocol is not implemented yet.

Regards, Roman

The aca-py endorser protocol is implemented in the agent, not on the ledger. So the endorser protocol should work on Sovrin MainNet (disclaimer - we haven't tested this yet, but it should work).

The main thing is that the endorser agent needs to have a DID registered on the ledger with ENDORSER role (or STEWARD or TRUSTEE should work as well).

Note that TRUSTEE will work, but STEWARD will not.

Where can I find the prototcol, can't find it nether in concepts or features of rfcs.

So how does it work?

If you are running aca-py agents, you can get some info here:

The Aries RFC got stuck in a PR awhile back:
