Credential API — Award, Retrieve, Edit and Delete Credentials
The Credential API (Basic tier) is the core of CertifyMe's automation layer. Use POST /v2/credential to award a new credential to a recipient, GET /v2/credential/{id} to retrieve its full details, PUT /v2/credential/{id} to update it, and DELETE /v2/credential/{id} to revoke it. All endpoints accept and return JSON. This tier is included in all plans and supports bulk issuance workflows.
Template API — Create and Manage Credential Templates at Scale
The Template API (Advanced tier) lets your team manage the design and data structure of credentials without logging into the dashboard. Create a new template (POST /v2/template), copy an existing one, retrieve all templates for a folder, or delete a template by ID. The GET /v2/template/{id}/credentials endpoint returns all Credential IDs issued against a specific template — ideal for reporting and audits.
Project Manager API — Organise Credentials into Folders Programmatically
The Project Manager API (Advanced tier) allows programmatic management of folder structures within your CertifyMe institution account. Create a new folder by name, retrieve a folder by ID, or list all folders by institution ID. This keeps large-scale issuance programmes organised without manual dashboard work — useful for multi-department or multi-cohort deployments.
