01 Verify

Check credential authenticity from any connected system.

02 Issue

Create secure records from institutional workflows.

03 Integrate

Bring VerraLinQ into your own infrastructure.

API Capabilities

Build credential trust into the systems you already run.

The VerraLinQ API gives developers and institutions structured access to verification, issuance, credential status, lifecycle control, and public proof experiences — all through integration-ready endpoints.

01

Verify credential authenticity

Query a credential ID or trusted reference and return structured proof showing whether the record exists, is active, and is issuer-backed.

Endpoint POST /v1/credentials/verify
  • Credential status checks
  • Issuer and proof metadata
  • Ready for portal or workflow use
02

Issue secure credential records

Create new credentials from your LMS, internal dashboard, or custom application and send them into VerraLinQ’s trusted issuance flow.

Endpoint POST /v1/credentials
  • Programmatic credential creation
  • Institution and recipient fields
  • Issuance-ready response data
03

Retrieve live credential status

Pull the current lifecycle state of a credential at any moment — active, expired, revoked, replaced, or pending review.

Endpoint GET /v1/credentials/{id}
  • Real-time status retrieval
  • Issuer-controlled record visibility
  • Suitable for compliance checks
04

Manage revocation and expiry

Update credential lifecycle events through controlled endpoints, keeping public proof aligned with institutional decisions over time.

Endpoint PATCH /v1/credentials/{id}
  • Expiry and validity updates
  • Revocation and replacement states
  • Institutional lifecycle control
05

Generate public proof experiences

Return verification URLs, QR-linked credential routes, and public-facing proof references that recipients and third parties can use instantly.

Endpoint GET /v1/credentials/{id}/proof
  • Verification page references
  • QR-ready proof payloads
  • Shareable trust infrastructure
06

Connect complete platform workflows

Build credential actions into your existing digital stack, from learner completion triggers to employer verification portals.

Use Cases LMS · HR · CE · Portals
  • Completion-to-credential automation
  • Custom verification experiences
  • Institution-controlled integration logic

One API layer. Multiple credential workflows.

VerraLinQ gives product teams a structured way to move from simple verification requests to institution-grade credential issuance and lifecycle control.

Integration Workflow

From platform event to verifiable credential proof.

VerraLinQ fits into existing digital workflows without forcing a full rebuild. Trigger issuance, secure the record, return trusted proof assets, and keep the credential verifiable over time.

01

Your platform triggers issuance

A learner completes a course, a license is approved, or an internal workflow reaches issuance status. Your system sends the credential payload to VerraLinQ.

POST /v1/credentials
02

VerraLinQ secures the record

The credential is processed into a trusted record, associated with the issuer, assigned a verifiable ID, and prepared for proof-backed retrieval.

Record VLQ-100298 created
03

Verification assets return instantly

Your app receives the credential ID, public verification URL, QR-ready reference data, and status metadata that can be surfaced to recipients or internal teams.

Return url + qr + proof_status
04

Anyone can verify the live record later

Employers, institutions, boards, and recipients can validate the credential through a public page, QR scan, or API request, with live status always tied back to issuer control.

GET /v1/credentials/{id}
Integration Ecosystem

Designed to connect with credential-heavy systems.

VerraLinQ is not another isolated dashboard. It acts as a trust layer inside the platforms institutions, training providers, employers, and regulated organizations already use.

One trust layer. No platform replacement.

Keep your LMS, student portal, HR system, compliance workflow, or internal application. Use VerraLinQ APIs to add issuance, verification, proof retrieval, and credential lifecycle control exactly where they belong.

LMS Platforms

Trigger credentials when learning milestones are completed.

Student & Learner Portals

Expose live credential records inside user-facing dashboards.

Continuing Education Systems

Issue completion records and renewal-aware credentials at scale.

HR & Compliance Platforms

Verify applicant, staff, and regulated workforce credentials.

Licensing & Certification Boards

Maintain public status visibility for regulated records.

Custom Internal Applications

Build tailored issuance and verification workflows your way.

API FAQs

Clear answers for technical integration planning.

Everything you need to understand how the VerraLinQ API supports credential issuance, verification, integrations, lifecycle control, and deployment into existing institutional systems.

What can the VerraLinQ API be used for?

The API can be used to verify credential authenticity, issue secure records, retrieve live credential status, generate verification proof references, manage lifecycle changes, and connect credential trust into external platforms.

Can VerraLinQ integrate with our LMS or student portal?

Yes. The API is designed to connect with credential-heavy systems such as learning management systems, student portals, continuing education platforms, HR systems, compliance tools, licensing systems, and custom internal applications.

Can credentials be issued automatically through the API?

Yes. Your platform can trigger issuance after a qualifying event, such as course completion, certification approval, successful training, or any internal workflow milestone you define.

How does API-based credential verification work?

A connected system sends a credential identifier or trusted reference to VerraLinQ. The API returns a structured response showing whether the credential exists, its status, issuer association, and any available proof or public verification references.

Can we revoke, expire, or update credentials through the API?

Yes. Credential lifecycle endpoints can support status changes, expiry handling, revocation, replacement logic, and other issuer-controlled updates depending on your implementation scope.

Is API access included in every VerraLinQ plan?

API access is intended for higher-level institutional and enterprise workflows where integrations, automation, or custom platform connectivity are required. Exact access and scope can be aligned with the selected plan.

Can Enterprise integrations be customized?

Absolutely. Enterprise integrations can be tailored around credential volume, issuer workflows, security requirements, SSO, custom verification experiences, white-label needs, system architecture, and support expectations.
