Logging the verified peer identity name

In this example, the RTCPeerConnection.peerIdentity promise is awaited to obtain the identity assertion, and then the peer's verified identity name is logged.

js
const pc = new RTCPeerConnection();

// …

async function logPeerName() {
  try {
    const identity = await pc.peerIdentity;
    console.log(`Peer identity: ${identity.name}`);
  } catch (err) {
    console.error("Could not verify peer identity:", err);
  }
}

logPeerName();
