After you have claimed and stored your credential, there are a number of ways you can choose to share it without needing to contact MIT Learn.
1. Share as a text file: You can send your credential text file via email, text, or messaging application. However, please note that this file contains machine readable code only. The recipient must have a verifier application such as VerifierPlus to view the credential. The recipient can verify using the steps above.
2. Share with a public link using the LCW: Navigate to your home page. From here you can do one of the following:
Select the share icon on the bottom navigation. Select “Create Public Link.” This will ask you to select the credential you want to share. Then select “Create Link.”
OR
Select the credential you want to share then select the three dots in the top right corner and select “share.” Then select “Create a public link.”
After you have created a public link, you will be able to share your credential in these ways:
- Deeplink or URL: Select “Copy” and send the URL via email, text message or other channels.
- Text file: Select “Send Credential” and choose from your device where you would like to send the file. Note that this file will not be a rendered image of the credential but the JSON code. More information on how to use this code is explained below in the section on VerifierPlus.
- QR code: A person seeking to verify your credential can scan the QR code on your LCW using their mobile device.
- Share to LinkedIn: Select “Add to LinkedIn Profile” and then “Add to LinkedIn.” This will prompt your mobile device to open the LinkedIn app if you have it downloaded and log into your LinkedIn account. This will prompt an entry in your LinkedIn profile under “certifications."
