# Resolve DID

> Resolve a DID to its W3C DID 1.1 Document. Only DIDs with ACTIVE status resolve; an unknown or non-active DID returns 404. The document lists every registered key under `verificationMethod`, while `authentication` and `assertionMethod` reference only non-revoked keys.

        Pin request, response, and webhook shapes to a specific dated API
        version (YYYY-MM-DD). Omit to use the version pinned to your API key
        (set when the key is created; new keys default to the latest version).
        New integrations should target the latest version.
