May 2026 Update: Bring Your Badges with You

Your Navigatr wallet now accepts badges from Credly, Accredible, Moodle and beyond. Plus a reworked download dialog and smarter, more personal emails.

Written by Support Desk

This month brings your wallet a much wider reach. You can now import badges from any Open Badge platform, the download dialog is easier to work with, secondary email setup is more thorough, and our emails have had a brand-voice refresh.


Key features

Import badges from any Open Badge platform

If you've earned badges on Credly, Accredible, Moodle, or any other Open Badge 2.0 platform, you can now bring them into your Navigatr wallet and keep everything in one place.

There are three ways to import a badge:

  • Paste the hosted assertion URL

  • Upload an Open Badge JSON file

  • Upload the baked PNG or SVG image file

Imported badges appear on your My Badges grid with an "Imported" chip, and we label the source platform on the verify page (for example, "Issued using Accredible").

How to access: My Badges → Import badge. For a step-by-step walkthrough, see Open Badges Explained: Downloading, Importing, and Sharing on Navigatr.

A redesigned Open Badge download experience

We've reworked the download dialog. It now lives in a single, cleaner modal with a version toggle for Open Badge 2.0 and 3.0. JSON and PNG files download properly to your device (no more opening in a browser tab), SVG is now an option alongside them, and files arrive with sensible, slugged filenames.

The overflow-menu entry has also been renamed from "Open Badge" to Download, so the action is clearer at a glance.

Verifying your secondary email addresses

When you add a non-primary email to your account, we now send a verification email automatically and only mark the address verified once you click through. There's a dedicated verify page, a resend flow, and several reliability fixes.

Smarter, more personal emails

Our emails have had a refresh. Trial reminders, summary stats, and cancellation and expiry emails now include personalised content like "Win of the week", "Suggested next action", and tailored CTAs based on your usage.

The footer unsubscribe link now goes to your granular email preferences first rather than a global opt-out, so you can keep the emails you want and stop the ones you don't.


Changes

  • Admin emails name the person who triggered them, so you can follow up directly.

  • The role-welcome email is suppressed when you start a subscription you own, preventing the Day-0 email stack.

  • Mobile admin toolbar polish: icon-only buttons on crowded pages, the help-hint on its own row, and unified button radii.

  • Stats pages now confirm before emailing the report to the admin, and the redundant Settings shortcut has been removed.

  • Badge assertion verification is stricter: it fails after the source's expiration date, re-fetches the source on view to detect upstream revocation, and clears the green tick on a failed verify so the UI reflects current state.

  • Pending invites now count toward your provider or community seat limit. The check is skipped when the limit is 0.


Bug fixes

  • Activity and pathway emails no longer show a broken map image when the object has no location.

  • Long list-item text now wraps and truncates correctly so icons stay aligned.

  • Pathway job-feed cards extend to the full viewport width on mobile, with URL and icon right-aligned to the card edge.

  • The badge upload preview no longer overflows the viewport on mobile.

  • The Supply of Services consent dialog no longer overflows on mobile.

  • Changing your primary email no longer hits a destructive rollback path.

  • Verify emails no longer read "Hi ,".

  • The notification icon for badge assertions now displays correctly.

  • Several broken support and survey URLs have been corrected.


API & compliance

  • New POST /advanced/v1/wallet/import endpoints accept a hosted assertion URL, an Open Badge JSON body, or a multipart PNG/SVG upload.

  • Issued Open Badge 2.0 assertions now serve /badge/{id} as the hosted verification URL (previously the API endpoint).

  • Badge_Assertion responses include a wallet block via the new Badge_Assertion_Wallet schema for imported assertions.

  • Imported assertions are re-fetched on verify to surface upstream revocation.


What this means for you

  • Learners: You can now bring badges in from Credly, Accredible, Moodle, and beyond, all under My Badges → Import badge. The download dialog has been redesigned with proper file downloads and SVG support. Any secondary email addresses on your account now need verifying after they're added.

  • Provider admins: Admin toolbars are mobile-friendly, stats reports confirm before they email, and badge assertion verification is stricter.

  • Community admins: The admin toolbar improvements and seat-limit changes apply to community seats too.

  • API users and integrators: Three new wallet import endpoints are available, the hosted verification URL has moved to the platform viewer, and Badge_Assertion responses now include a wallet block for imports.
