Access controls for a decentralized network

A server of a service provider system, the server comprising:

• a processing device;
• and
• a computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that responsive to execution by the processing device causes the processing device to perform operations including:
• receiving an identifier from an identity wallet maintained by an edge device associated with an entity;
• querying an application programming interface of a decentralized identity maintained at a decentralized node using the identifier, the decentralized node including a personal datastore configured to control third party access via at least one application programming interface and included as part of a network of decentralized nodes individually configured to store, receive, and transmit data based on rules associated with the decentralized nodes;
• receiving decentralized identity data from the decentralized node via the application programming interface;
• and
• storing the decentralized identity data in a computer-readable storage medium as associated with the entity.

A method comprising:

• displaying, by an edge device, a user interface configured to generate a decentralized identity;
• receiving, by the edge device, a plurality of inputs specifying a plurality of types of decentralized identity data and a plurality of application programming interfaces, via which, the plurality of types of the decentralized identity data is accessible;
• and
• forming a communication for communication to a decentralized node including a personal datastore configured to control third party access via at least one application programming interface and included as part of a network of decentralized nodes individually configured to store, receive, and transmit data based on rules associated with the decentralized nodes that specify a type of data to associate with a specific type of application programming interface, the communication configured to cause the decentralized node to maintain the decentralized identity, via which, the decentralized identity data is made available via respective application programming interfaces of the plurality of application programming interfaces.
