# Identity Hub - Identity Write Credentials API

## Decision

Write endpoints (create/update) will be added to the Identity Hub identity API.

## Rationale

As of now the issuance of VCs into the Identity Hub is not defined as part of the DCP specification. Thus, it is
impossible
for now to add VCs within the Identity Hub at run time.

To circumvent this issue, we will add write endpoints (create/update) to the Identity Hub identity API.

> **_NOTE:_** It is strongly discouraged to expose these write endpoints public over the internet as they can be used
> by malicious actors to compromise your VCs. The same warning applies for all identity APIs.
