-
1. The SME uses the End-User API to manage their certificates.
143
-
2. The EDC tenant is connected to a partner's EDC in the dataspace for data sharing (provisioning & consumption).

3. The MPS tenant has a connection to the EDC tenant for configuration purposes (e.g., initiate setup, onboarding information).

4. The MSP tenant realizes the technical onboarding flow.
