We are making protocol updates in Microsoft Authenticator to support Single Long Form DID, thus deprecating the use of pairwise. With this update, your DID in Microsoft Authenticator will be used of every issuer and relaying party exchange. Holders of verifiable credentials in Microsoft Authenticator for Android must get their verifiable credentials reissued as any previous credentials aren't going to continue working.

You can now use [Request Service REST API](get-started-request-api.md) to build applications that can issue and verify credentials from any programming language you're using. This new REST API provides an improved abstraction layer and integration to the Azure AD Verifiable Credentials Service.

It's a good idea to start using the API soon, because the NodeJS SDK will be deprecated in the following months. Documentation and samples now use the Request Service REST API. For more information, see [Request Service REST API (preview)](get-started-request-api.md).

You can now issue [verifiable credentials](decentralized-identifier-overview.md) in Azure AD. This service is useful when you need to represent proof of employment, education, or any other claim, so that the holder of such a credential can decide when, and with whom, to share their credentials. Each credential is signed by using cryptographic keys associated with the decentralized identity that the user owns and controls.
