Hello

Protocol reference

OIDC compliance: eSignet exposes a standard OIDC discovery document. Relying parties can resolve signing keys and endpoint URLs from it directly, rather than hardcoding them.

GET /.well-known/openid-configuration

Swap in your environment's actual host — the path above is the standard OIDC discovery endpoint, shown illustratively, not verified against a specific live deployment.
