Create a Schema

Set up a Credential Schema

Select Schemas and click Create schema

Add a name for the schema and a description.

In Credential attributes, add the type of information you want to appear on the schema. You can do this in two ways:

a) By manually setting up what kind information you want to appear

b) Importing an existing credential template from another source

Add Credential Attributes manually

Click Create manually.

You can choose what format the field will appear in and which fields are required or optional.

You don’t need to add an Issue Date and Expiry Date field because these fields will automatically appear on all templates.

Once you’ve added all the fields, click Publish. All credential schemas will be listed on this page when you select Schemas from the menu.

You can also see your new credential templates added to the pre-built templates. So whenever you issue a credential, you will be able to choose a template from this list.

Select Preview to see the attributes that are included in the credential schema.

The Issue Date and Expiration Date are default attributes that will appear on every template if you create the template manually.

Add Credential Attributes by importing an existing credential schema

You can import an existing credential schema into Dock.

Paste the schema URL or JSON in the Schema Import pop up and select Import Schema

Double check to make sure that the correct data format is selected for each data field. Add or remove the fields as necessary and select Publish once ready.

Edit a Credential Schema

Go to the schema you want to edit, click on the three dots, and select Copy and edit.

Update the schema Name so you can tell the difference between this updated version and the original one. Once you’ve made all of your edits, go to the top of the page and select Publish.
