edu-ID - Attribute and Data model
Key attributes
The following attributes are available and verifiable via eIDAS-compliant eID systems (cf. eIDAS Minimum data set):
- A uniqueness identifier
- Address
- Current address
- Current family name
- Current first name(s)
- Date of birth
- Gender
- Name and family name at Birth
- Place of birth
Questions:
- This sets the core data set; which other attributes are for the respective Use Cases neccessary? See also the cross-matrix below.
- Does this have consequences for the data model?
- Can we adopt the SWITCH data model 1:1?
List of attributes rated as essential at the meeting on 11.12.2020
Addresses:
- eIDAS-Data set: Difference between 'Address' and 'Current address'? DH: better have a look at the SAML specification? Probably only one address, see here (Page 6)
- Available via nPA: BSI TR-03130
- DE: current registration address, not necessarily postal address
- Postal address must be provided by the user
- SWITCH edu-ID: postal address only, validation via code by letter post
E-Mail:
- Multiple, primary and additional addresses, both personal and affiliation context
- SWITCH edu-ID: validation via challenge mail
Telephone number(s):
- SWITCH edu-ID: validation via SMS for mobile phone number; service landline number from affiliation
- Record mobile and landline numbers separately, both in the personal and affiliation context (multi-value)
Identifier:
- some can be made available via affiliation as well as via user
- ORCID: users should register themselves
- bwIDM2: ORCID should be stored in university IDM, could then also come from the affiliation
- SWITCH: OAuth2 interface for verification, link must be created by user
- Problem: Multiple ORCIDs per user ↔ affiliation. Error message? Leave ORCID in affiliation context.
- GND: does an interface analogous to ORCID exist?
Names:
- Name prefixes and suffixes part of the name? Parsing required (not applicable)
- Distinguish between first and last name only
Title:
- technically irrelevant, free text field
Place of birth:
- Required - is it possible to infer the country of birth in all cases?
Country of birth:
- Difficult, but not essential anyway
Personal pronouns
- or preferred form of address or similar
Additional contact details:
- further telephone numbers and addresses
- covered via other data fields
Attributes in the affiliation context:
- SWITCH: some local imprints
- At least eIDAS key data
- dfnEduPerson
- schacPersonalUniqueCode
- Identifier: clarify whether home or edu-ID identifier is used at the latest during operational concept, local IDs for migration scenarios
