I have a certificate, "Microsoft Certified Educator Study Guide", earned in the month of May 2021, but I do not know the credential ID and credential URL. Where and how to find it.

Thanks

    The credential ID and credential URL for Microsoft certifications and badges are not printed on the PDF itself; they are obtained from the online credential and transcript views in Microsoft Learn and Credly.

    To locate them for a Microsoft Certified Educator–related credential:

    1. Check your Microsoft Learn profile (transcript and credentials)
      1. Sign in to your Learn profile.
      2. Open your profile menu and select Transcript to see all successfully completed certifications and modules, including Microsoft Certified Educator if it was issued as a Microsoft certification.
      3. From the same profile, select Credentials (or go directly to the credentials tab) to see your certifications and Applied Skills.
      4. For the relevant certification, use the Share link option on the transcript page to generate a verifiable URL to your transcript. This URL is what schools and employers use to verify the credential.
    2. Use the Learn transcript share link as the official verification URL
      • On the Transcript page, select Share link → Create link (or Copy link if one already exists). This produces a verifiable link to the transcript that includes the certification. This link serves as the official credential URL when an institution or employer needs to verify it.
    3. If the credential was issued via Credly (digital badge)
      • Microsoft badges are issued through Credly’s Acclaim platform. If a digital badge exists for the exam/certification you completed, it will appear in your Credly account.
      • The badge page in Credly provides a public badge URL that can be used as a credential URL when sharing on LinkedIn or with employers.
    4. If the certification or exam is missing
      • If the expected certification does not appear under Credentials or in your Transcript, follow the steps in the missing certifications guidance (check the correct Learn account, multiple profiles, etc.).
      • If still missing, contact Microsoft Credentials Support for help.

    Note: “Microsoft Certified Educator Study Guide” sounds like preparation material rather than the actual Microsoft Certified Educator certification. Only the certification itself (earned by passing the associated exam) will appear as a credential with shareable verification links; study guides typically do not have credential IDs.
