Credential Templates

Create a credential template

Credential templates form the structure of verifiable credentials which Organisation Administrators issue to Holders. Organisation Administrators can create new credential templates by navigating to Credentials on the left-side menu of the SVX Portal, and selecting Credential templates.

After selecting the Create credential template button, you will be presented with a form on the left-side of the screen, and a preview of the final verifiable credential on the right. The form consists of the following fields:

  • Template name

  • Schema (listed are schemas made available to the Organisation by Tenant Administrators)

  • Default credential card background colour

  • Default credential card text colour

  • Default credential card logo (Organisation Administrator can decide display a logo or not)

Once all required fields are complete select the Create button and the credential template will appear in a list with a designated version number.

Note A schema forms the structure of the verifiable credential, allowing you to issue credentials that include information specific to a Holder.
