This section contains information about all the JSON-LD classes used in 1EdTech Open Badges
Achievement
A collection of information about the accomplishment recognized by the Assertion. Many assertions may be created corresponding to one Achievement.
AchievementCredential
AchievementCredentials are representations of an awarded achievement, used to share information about a achievement belonging to one earner. Maps to a Verifiable Credential as defined in the [[VC-DATA-MODEL]]. As described in data-integrity, at least one proof mechanism, and the details necessary to evaluate that proof, MUST be expressed for a credential to be a verifiable credential. In the case of an embedded proof, the credential MUST append the proof in the `proof` property.
VerifiableCredential
.AchievementSubject
A collection of information about the recipient of an achievement. Maps to Credential Subject in [[VC-DATA-MODEL]].
CredentialSubject
.Address
An address for the described entity.
Alignment
Describes an alignment between an achievement and a node in an educational framework.
AnyIdentifier
Can't find any description.
Context
JSON-LD Context. Either a URI with the context definition or a Map with a local context definition MUST be supplied.
Map
, xsd:anyURI
.Criteria
Descriptive metadata about the achievements necessary to be recognized with an assertion of a particular achievement. This data is added to the Achievement class so that it may be rendered when the achievement assertion is displayed, instead of simply a link to human-readable criteria external to the achievement. Embedding criteria allows either enhancement of an external criteria page or increased portability and ease of use by allowing issuers to skip hosting the formerly-required external criteria page altogether. Criteria is used to allow would-be recipients to learn what is required of them to be recognized with an assertion of a particular achievement. It is also used after the assertion is awarded to a recipient to let those inspecting earned achievements know the general requirements that the recipients met in order to earn it.
EndorsementCredential
A verifiable credential that asserts a claim about an entity. As described in data-integrity, at least one proof mechanism, and the details necessary to evaluate that proof, MUST be expressed for a credential to be a verifiable credential. In the case of an embedded proof, the credential MUST append the proof in the `proof` property.
VerifiableCredential
.EndorsementSubject
A collection of information about the subject of the endorsement.
CredentialSubject
.Evidence
Descriptive metadata about evidence related to the achievement assertion. Each instance of the evidence class present in an assertion corresponds to one entity, though a single entry can describe a set of items collectively. There may be multiple evidence entries referenced from an assertion. The narrative property is also in scope of the assertion class to provide an overall description of the achievement related to the assertion in rich text. It is used here to provide a narrative of achievement of the specific entity described. If both the description and narrative properties are present, displayers can assume the narrative value goes into more detail and is not simply a recapitulation of description.
GeoCoordinates
The geographic coordinates of a location.
GetOpenBadgeCredentialsResponse

IdentifierEntry

IdentifierType

IdentityObject

Image
Metadata about images that represent assertions, achieve or profiles. These properties can typically be represented as just the id string of the image, but using a fleshed-out document allows for including captions and other applicable metadata.
JWK
A JSON Web Key (JWK) formatted according to [[RFC7517]].
JWKS
A JWK Set (JWKS) formatted according to [[RFC7517]].
Map
A map representing an object with unknown, arbitrary properties
Multikey
Can't find any description.
Profile
A Profile is a collection of information that describes the entity or organization using Open Badges. Issuers must be represented as Profiles, and endorsers, or other entities may also be represented using this vocabulary. Each Profile that represents an Issuer may be referenced in many BadgeClasses that it has defined. Anyone can create and host an Issuer file to start issuing Open Badges. Issuers may also serve as recipients of Open Badges, often identified within an Assertion by specific properties, like their url or contact email address.
