A Virgil Card is the main entity of the Keys Service, it includes the information about the user and his public key. The Virgil Card identifies the user by one of his available types, such as an email, a phone number, etc.

The Virgil Card might be global and private. The difference is whether Virgil Services take part in the Identity verification.

Global Virgil Cards are created with the validation token received after verification in Virgil Identity Service. Any developer with Virgil account can create a Global Virgil Card and you can be sure that the account with a particular email has been verified and the email owner is really the Identity owner.

Connections between Cards can be created, Cards can be with:

1. one public key and multiple Identities;
2. one public key and one Identity;
3. multiple public keys and multiple Identities;
4. multiple public keys and one Identity;
5. one public key and one Identity connected with public-key-id;
6. one public key and multiple Identities connected with public-key-id.

1. Create a Global Virgil Card:

   virgil card-create-global -f alice/validated_identity_global.txt --public-key public.key -k alice/private.key -o alice/my_card.vcard
   

2. Create a Global Virgil Card, with Identity confirmation:

   virgil card-create-global -d [email protected] --public-key public.key -k alice/private.key -o alice/my_card.vcard
   

3. Create a connection with already existing Global Virgil Card, by public-key-id:

   virgil card-create-global -f alice/validated_identity_global.txt -e <pub_key_id> -k alice/private.key -o alice/my_card.vcard
   

4. Create a connection with already existing Global Virgil Card, by public-key-id. With confirming of identity:

   virgil card-create-global -d [email protected] -e <pub_key_id> -k alice/private.key -o alice/my_card.vcard
