This acknowledgement pattern is used to accept an offer made in a previous notification.

Properties

The @context must include:

• Activity Streams 2.0
• Notify

id

Notify notifications must describe an AS 2.0 activity. The activity has an id which must be a URI, and the use of URN:UUID is recommended. An HTTP URI may be used instead, but in such cases the URI should resolve to a useful resource.

type

The activity has a type which should include at least the value Accept from AS 2.0.

actor

The activity should have an actor describing the party responsible for initiating this activity. The actor:

• has an id which must be an HTTP URI.
• has a type which should be one of: Application, Group, Organization, Person or Service from AS 2.0.
• may have a name

context

This activity has a context. The context has:

• An id which is the HTTP URI of the "landing page" for the resource.
• A type.
• An ietf:cite-as which contains the persistent HTTP URI (sometimes called the "PID") which is to be used to cite or link to the resource.

inReplyTo

inReplyTo is specified because this is a response to a previous notification. inReplyTo takes the URI (URN:UUID or HTTP URI) which identifies the activity for which this is a response.

object

This activity has an object.

origin

The activity has an origin describing the system which has sent the notification. The origin has:

• An id which is an HTTP URI identifying the generic-service.
• A type which should include the value Service from AS 2.0.
• An inbox which is the HTTP URI of the LDN inbox for the generic-service

target

The activity has a target describing the system which is intended to receive the notification. The target has:

• An id which is an HTTP URI identifying the generic-organisation.
• A type which should include the value Service from AS 2.0.
• An inbox which is the HTTP URI of the LDN inbox for the generic-organisation
