# Flows: Claim and Presentation

Wallet Server can process the same QR‑based flows used by mobile wallets. Flows are initialized from a QR URL and then confirmed. A flow remains active for \~10 minutes before expiring.

## Initialize from QR

* POST `/flows`
  * Body:
    * `qrContent` (string): URL you scanned from issuer/verifier
    * `did` (string, optional): explicitly pass holder DID, if applicable
  * Response: `{ flowType: 'claim' | 'presentation', data: ... }`

Depending on the QR type, one of the following happens:

### Claim Flow (issuer QR)

1. Initialize: `POST /flows` returns `{ processId, status: 'initialized', offering }`.
2. Confirm: `POST /flows/:processId/confirm` with body `{ "type": "claim" }`.
3. Response: `{ status: 'confirmed', message: ... }` after the SDK completes.

### Presentation Flow (verifier QR)

1. Initialize: `POST /flows` returns `{ processId, matchingCredentialIds, matchingCredentials, status }`.
   * If there are no matches, status is `failed` with an error.
2. Confirm: choose a credential and send:
   * `POST /flows/:processId/confirm`
   * Body: `{ "type": "presentation", "selectedCredential": { ...full VC json... } }`
3. Response: `{ status: 'confirmed', message: 'Presentation verified' }` or an error if verifier rejects.

## Examples

Initialize:

```
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/flows \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer <token>' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"qrContent":"https://issuer-or-verifier.example.com/qrcode-data", "did":"did:example:123"}'
```

Confirm claim:

```
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/flows/<processId>/confirm \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer <token>' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"type":"claim"}'
```

Confirm presentation:

```
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/flows/<processId>/confirm \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer <token>' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"type":"presentation","selectedCredential":{ ... your VC ... }}'
```

## Expiration & Concurrency

* Each initialized flow stores a short‑lived promise; if unconfirmed for \~10 minutes, it expires and is cleaned up.
* Confirmation must be performed by the same authenticated user that initialized the flow.
* Presentation confirmation requires the complete VC object (not just id).
