Service Overview
Providing an Overview of the API Services Offered
Knox has a number of different services which are elaborated in depth in the API Reference.
Knox is NOT a direct network operator, but instead allows for clients to directly manage their own services.
Core Services
Service | Run by | Description |
---|---|---|
Wallet | Depends | Manages interaction with Wallets, which store File-Based Digital Assets and Digital Identity credentials. Certain wallets can also be granted the ability as an ‘Authority’ to create FBDAs into existence by registering the wallet and an asset (via an asset code) with the Transaction Validator. With permission granted by the Transaction Validator, the wallet can then begin issuing assets (at limits prescribed by the wallet) via signing from the Transaction Validator. Assets issued and transacted can be subsequently redeemed against this wallet via the Transaction Validator. |
Transaction Validator | Network | The Transaction Validator Service processes transactions via (1) reasoning about the status of the transaction through Contract-Based Transactions, and (2) carrying out the transfer and signing of FBDAs. |
