# Verification Templates

### Create a verification template

Verification templates form the basis of verification requests which Organisation Administrators can send to Holders when verifying credentials. Verification templates define the structure and type of credentials requested from Holders and can be used for endless verification requests. An Organisation Administrator can create a new verification template by navigating to Credentials on the left-side menu of the SVX Portal, and selecting *Verification templates*.

After selecting the *Create verification template* button, you will be presented with a form. The form consists of the following fields:

* Template name
* Purpose
* Required credential
  * The credential schema
  * Which Issuer the credential is issued by
* The option to add required credentials

Once all required fields are complete, select the Create button and the verification template will appear in the *Active templates* list.
