Credential Detail
The detail page is where you input the information for your digital credentials.
Within the credential campaign flow, click on Select Detail, and then proceed by clicking the Create New Detail button.
To get started, your first step is to select a Credential Type. Then, provide all the information for your event. Include a detailed description, select the event duration, specify the cost, set an expiry date if needed, and indicate the appropriate level, if applicable.
Credential Expiry
If the credential that you will send to your recipients has an expiry date, specify it while creating the certificate details. Otherwise, select the No Expiry Date option.
When you set an expiry date, your recipients will receive email notifications one month before the credential’s expiry. If you prefer not to send credential expiry email notifications to your recipients as their credential’s expiry date approaches, you can disable this feature from this section.

The last step to finish your credential details is to add Skills. This is where you select the relevant skills related to the field you are teaching. You can either choose skills from the existing talent library or add custom ones.
Credential Design
Within the credential campaign, click either the Select Badge Design or “Select Certificate Design” option, or create both of them under the same campaign. Then, select Create New Design to customize your credential design.
