Purpose and usage

What this endpoint does

Return identity, account type, display name, and names without contact, preference, privacy, or verification data.

When to use it

Call this when an identity, compliance, relying-party, or trust agent workflow needs to discover core profile and choose a canonical record for a later step so it can make a purpose-limited identity or assurance decision with current policy and lifecycle state.

OUTCOME · Discover

What changes

Read-only projection; it grants no mutation, settlement, traffic, or authority change.

WHY IT MATTERS

Gives people and agents a contract-backed way to discover core profile.
Separates subject identity, consent, evidence, provider output, review, issuer credentials, and relying-party acceptance instead of collapsing them into a universal trust score.

ISOLATION + AUTHORITY

Bearer subject, tenant, purpose, policy version, role, issuer, reviewer, provider, and relying-party boundaries remain distinct. The response or transition grants no payment, custody, settlement, publisher, matching, or trading authority and must not expose regulated evidence beyond the live schema.

BEFORE YOU CALL

Authenticate at the documented boundary: bearer+scope.
Use the live OpenAPI schema as the authority for the exact request shape and response model.
Resolve the applicable purpose, policy version, consent or role basis, and required assurance before relying on this result.

WHAT TO DO NEXT

Select one canonical identifier from the response and open its detail operation when the live contract exposes one.
Use the returned lifecycle state and policy version to choose the next least-privilege trust action; do not infer a missing stage.

AGENT GUIDANCE

Use core profile only for the purpose and lifecycle stage described by this operation; do not treat it as authority for an adjacent action.
Use the live OpenAPI schema as the authority for the exact request shape and response model.
Treat policy availability, consent, evidence capture, completed checks, review, decision, credential issuance, validity, and relying-party acceptance as separate facts.
Use response links and canonical identifiers instead of constructing internal service URLs or scraping the website.

INTEGRATION DECISION

CALLER ACTION: Accept the returned representation or receipt, then select one canonical identifier from the response and open its detail operation when the live contract exposes one.
RETRY SAFETY: Repeat only when the integration needs a fresher authoritative projection.
STATE RECONCILIATION: Use returned identifiers and versions as the comparison point for later reads. Refresh the subject, claim or credential version, issuer and reviewer authority, evidence commitment, decision, expiry, and revocation status.

401The bearer credential or required HTTP Message Signature is invalid.Authentication required · JSON RESPONSE+

{
  "code": "invalid_credentials",
  "message": "The bearer credential or required HTTP Message Signature is invalid."
}

INTEGRATION DECISIONinvalid_credentials

CALLER ACTION: Discard the rejected credential, complete the documented authentication or reassertion flow, and rebuild any request signature with fresh timestamps and nonces.
RETRY SAFETY: Retry only with a newly valid credential and fresh replay-protection values. Do not replay an expired signature.
STATE RECONCILIATION: Authentication failed before an authoritative read was returned for subject-scoped trust claims, evidence, credentials, reviews, decisions, presentations, and revocations.
ESCALATE WHEN: Escalate when subject binding, evidence minimization, issuer or reviewer authority, decision lineage, expiry, or revocation cannot be established.

INTEGRATION DECISIONprofile_forbidden

CALLER ACTION: Verify the exact scope, tenant or workspace membership, owner boundary, step-up purpose, feature policy, and resource eligibility. Never broaden authority automatically.
RETRY SAFETY: Do not retry until the missing authority or policy condition has been deliberately resolved with least privilege.
STATE RECONCILIATION: Confirm the caller and resource resolve to the same authority boundary for subject-scoped trust claims, evidence, credentials, reviews, decisions, presentations, and revocations.
ESCALATE WHEN: Escalate when subject binding, evidence minimization, issuer or reviewer authority, decision lineage, expiry, or revocation cannot be established.

503The authoritative Identity projection is unavailable.Dependency unavailable or outcome uncertain · JSON RESPONSE+

  "code": "identity_unavailable",
  "message": "The authoritative Identity projection is unavailable."
}

INTEGRATION DECISIONidentity_unavailable

CALLER ACTION: Treat the failure as transient and preserve the last known good representation without presenting it as fresh.
RETRY SAFETY: Retry with bounded exponential backoff and jitter; stop after the integration's failure budget is exhausted.
STATE RECONCILIATION: Refresh the subject, claim or credential version, issuer and reviewer authority, evidence commitment, decision, expiry, and revocation status.
ESCALATE WHEN: Escalate when subject binding, evidence minimization, issuer or reviewer authority, decision lineage, expiry, or revocation cannot be established.

OPERATIONAL NOTES

Security and lifecycle guarantees

Use this projection for display identity and account type; it replaces carrying the full V1 user_json object.
Responses are owner-scoped and no-store.

Reference version and availability details

This route is implemented in canonical gateway source and appears in the production OpenAPI snapshot observed 2026-10-02T23:27:55.510Z. Authentication, tenant, feature, venue, and market policy still apply.
