<p>This specification defines the <code>EventSourceSubscription2021</code> type for use with Solid Notifications subscriptions that use the EventSource Web API. The URI of the subscription type is <code>http://www.w3.org/ns/solid/notification#EventSourceSubscription2021</code>.</p>
<p>An <code>EventSourceSubscription2021</code> API MUST conform to the <cite><a href="https://solid.github.io/notifications/protocol#discovery">Solid Notifications Protocol</a></cite>. [<cite><a class="bibref" href="#bib-solid-notifications">SOLID-NOTIFICATIONS</a></cite>]</p>
<p>An <code>EventSourceSubscription2021</code> API SHOULD support the <cite><a href="https://solid.github.io/notifications/protocol#notification-features">Solid Notifications Features</a></cite>.</p>

<p>A client establishes a subscription using the <code>EventSourceSubscription2021</code> type by sending an authenticated subscription request to the hypermedia API retrieved via <cite><a href="https://solid.github.io/notifications/protocol#discovery">Solid Notifications discovery</a></cite>.</p>
<p>For <code>EventSourceSubscription2021</code> interactions, the client sends a JSON-LD payload to the appropriate hypermedia API via <code>POST</code>.

<p>As described by the Solid Notifications Protocol section on <cite><a href="https://solid.github.io/notifications/protocol#authentication-authorization" rel="cito:discusses">Authorization</a></cite>, the EventSource subscription API requires authorization and follows the guidance of the Solid Protocol sections on <cite><a href="https://solidproject.org/TR/protocol#authentication" rel="cito:discusses">Authentication</a></cite> and <cite><a href="https://solidproject.org/TR/protocol#authorization" rel="cito:discusses">Authorization</a></cite> [<cite><a class="bibref" href="#bib-solid-protocol">SOLID-PROTOCOL</a></cite>].</p>
<p>It is beyond the scope of this document to describe how a client fetches an access token. <cite><a href="https://solid.github.io/solid-oidc/" rel="cito:discusses">Solid-OIDC</a></cite> is one example of an authentication mechanism that could be used with Solid Notifications [<cite><a class="bibref" href="#bib-solid-oidc">SOLID-OIDC</a></cite>].</p>
