Description

Originally submitted by rolandh (Roland Hedberg) on 2023-08-16

In the ID Token example in 5.3 evidence type is given as :

"type": {
    "value": "document"
},

In other examples of responses this format is used:

"type": "document"

I get the difference between a response and a request. In requests the first variant is used consistently.

I think the second variant should be used for all response examples.
