Re: Expiry time in Data Model

David,

Great question.  The JSON-LD model allow us to leverage the OpenBadges  -
"expire" property found in their vocabulary.

,
    "http://w3id.org/openbadges/v1expires": [
      {
        "@value": "2020-05-05T21:53:01Z"
      }
    ],

Digital Credential validation tools then need to evaluate the property.
