claimMappingscredentialConfigurationClaimMappings

This is where you specify how to map claims (user attributes) into issued credentials. Each field in the object corresponds to a claim in the issued credential, and contains one or more from the following attributes:

mapFrom: References the path in the user object where the claim is available.
- When using a URL as a claims namespace identifier, use bracket notation to access the claim value (e.g. mapFrom: "claims['https://example.com/claim-name']").
- mapFrom is optional when defaultValue is provided, as the latter will be used for all issued credentials. This is referred to as a static claim.
defaultValue: Indicates what value is used if required is set to false (field is optional) and no value is provided by the claims source. When defaultValue is provided, mapFrom is optional.
required: Indicates whether the claim is required (default: false). When a required claim cannot be retrieved and no defaultValue is available, credential issuance will fail. Example claims object inside the user object
