acct URI scheme
(Redirected from
Acct (protocol)
)The acct
RFC 7565. The purpose of the scheme is to identify, rather than interact, with user accounts hosted by a service provider.[1] This scheme differs from the DNS name which specifies the service provider.[2]
The acct URI was intended to be the single URI scheme that would return information about a person (or possibly a thing) that holds an account at a given domain.[3]
Example
The following is an example of an acct URI:
acct:juliet%[email protected]
