Pilot scenario

UC2 - Slovenia

Currently, no study grant application services exist in production in Slovenia that are suitable to Spanish users. Therefore, a service will be set up at JSI for the project purposes where the students from Universitat Jaume I will be able to submit applications for study grants. The applicants’ evidence will be retrieved from a trusted data provider in Spain via the DE4A OOP TS. The Spanish students will authenticate at the JSI system using their eIDAS eIDs, they will explicitly request the use of the DE4A OOTS to retrieve the required evidence from their home countries, and will then be redirected to the competent authority responsible for issuing the evidence, where they will Preview the evidence before being redirected back to the requesting competent authority in Slovenia.
