Edge Profile and Cloud Profile

In Affinidi Vault, My Profiles is a secure, digital representation of your identity, designed to store and manage personal information, such as Verifiable Credentials (VC). It acts as a central hub, allowing you to input and maintain full control over your information.

There are two types of profiles available in the Affinidi Vault.

Edge Profile

The Default Profile created automatically when you set up your Affinidi Vault account is an edge profile.

The data in your Edge Profile is stored on your local device and is not uploaded to the cloud for cross-device sync. You have the option to back up your data either locally on your device or to the cloud and can restore it from your backup at any time.

For detailed instructions, refer to our guides on How to backup your Affinidi Vault and How to Restore your data from a Backup.

Cloud Profile

The cloud profile in Affinidi Vault enables secure cloud-based storage, allowing you to manage and sync your information across multiple devices seamlessly.

It also provides additional functionality, such as uploading documents to your Affinidi Vault and extracting data to quickly populate your profile with personal information and preferences.
