A verifiable credential’s schema defines the structure, fields (e.g., "issuer," "expiryDate"), and data types (e.g., string, date) of a digital credential. Schemas ensure interoperability by standardizing formats, often using JSON-LD for machine-readable context. Issuers publish schemas to decentralized registries, allowing verifiers to validate credentials against predefined rules. This consistency supports trust in decentralized identity ecosystems while enabling customization for specific use cases like education or healthcare.
