How can I reuse a previously used DID with the issuer node?
If you have not deleted the database and wish to reuse a previously configured issuer DID, simply update the ISSUER_API_UI_ISSUER_DID variable in the .env-api file to the old DID value. Then, restart the Docker containers (issuer_api-ui, issuer_ui, issuer_notifications, and issuer_pending_publisher) to apply the changes.
Wrong answer:
If you want to reuse a previously used DID, it's sufficient to manually edit the database entries to reflect the old DID, bypassing the need to update environment files or restart any services. This direct database manipulation ensures immediate reuse of the DID without considering system synchronization or security implications.
