Why use Ceven?

  1. AI native Accredible certificates integration

    • Describe the outcome and Ceven picks the right Accredible certificates calls, fills the parameters, and checks the result.
    • Structured, agent friendly tool schemas so each call runs reliably instead of by guesswork.
    • Rich coverage for reading, writing, and querying your Accredible certificates data, across all 36 of its actions.
  2. Managed auth

    • Built in OAuth with automatic token refresh and rotation.
    • One place to manage, scope, and revoke Accredible certificates access.
    • Per user and per environment credentials instead of shared keys.
  3. Agent optimized design

    • Actions are tuned from real success and error rates so reliability climbs over time.
    • Full execution logs so you always know what ran in Accredible certificates, when, and on whose behalf.
    • The agent pauses and asks when Accredible certificates is unclear instead of plowing ahead.
  4. Enterprise grade security

Create Group
Use this to create a new credential group after gathering all the necessary group details.
Delete Credential
Permanently remove an existing credential from the system using the credential id.
Delete Group
Permanently remove a credential group. Use this only after confirming no credentials remain in the group.
Delete Reference
Remove a specific reference from a credential using the credential id and reference id.
Generate PDFs
Create a zip archive of certificate PDFs for a list of published credential ids.
List Templates
Pull a paginated list of all available certificate templates to use for new issuances.

Update Reference
Change the comments or relationship of a credential reference using the reference id.
View Skill Categories
Retrieve a list of all available skill categories to link them to groups or badges.
Bulk Create Credentials (V2)
Tool to bulk create credentials. use when batching up to 30 credentials in one call; supports multi status (207) responses.

Frequently asked questions

Ceven uses the Bulk Create Credentials V2 endpoint to process issuances. Because this specific API endpoint has a hard limit of thirty credentials per single request, the agent automatically chunks your list of recipients into groups of thirty. If you provide a list of one hundred students, the agent will execute four separate API calls in sequence. It monitors the multi status 207 responses from Accredible to identify if any specific record in a batch failed while others succeeded. This ensures that a single typo in one email address does not stop the entire issuance process for the rest of your learners.
Yes. You can instruct the agent to pull a list of published credential ids and then trigger the Generate PDFs tool. The agent requests a zip archive from Accredible containing the PDF versions of those certificates. Once the archive is generated, the agent can move that file to your cloud storage or email it to an administrator. This is particularly useful for organizations that need to maintain offline backups of digital credentials for regulatory compliance or for learners who require a physical printout for their employer.
The agent simplifies course launches by using the Clone Group tool. Instead of manually recreating the settings, templates, and skill associations for every new session, the agent finds a successful group from a previous term and clones it. You can then tell the agent to update the group name to the current date or change the issuance window. This preserves the structural integrity of your credentialing system while allowing you to scale to hundreds of different course sections without manual configuration errors in the Accredible dashboard.
To revoke or remove a certificate, the agent uses the Delete Credential tool. You provide the learner name or email, the agent searches for the corresponding credential id, and then executes the deletion. This permanently removes the credential from the Accredible system and invalidates any public links associated with that specific certificate. For a more nuanced approach, you can use the agent to update the credential metadata to reflect a suspended status if your internal policy requires a record of the revocation rather than a total deletion.
Yes. The agent can use the Create Collection and Search Collections tools to build a structured library of your offerings. For example, you can ask the agent to find all groups related to a specific skill category and bundle them into a new public collection. This allows learners to see a roadmap of available certifications. The agent manages the pagination of the search results to ensure that every relevant group is identified before the collection is finalized and published to your public facing credential page.
Yes. Accredible imposes rate limits on their API to ensure platform stability. If you are performing massive operations, such as updating thousands of references or deleting hundreds of groups, the agent may encounter a 429 Too Many Requests error. When this happens, Ceven employs an exponential backoff strategy, meaning it will pause and retry the request after a short delay. To avoid this, we recommend using the bulk tools whenever possible rather than looping through single create calls, as the bulk endpoints are designed for higher volume throughput.
The agent uses the View All Skill Categories tool to see exactly which tags are available in your specific Accredible account. When you ask the agent to issue a badge for a specific skill, it first validates that the skill category exists to prevent API errors. If the category is missing, the agent can alert you or suggest the closest matching category from the retrieved list. This ensures that your credentials remain searchable and consistent across your entire organization, preventing the creation of duplicate or slightly misspelled skill tags.
Yes. The agent can use the Update Reference tool to modify specific details linked to a credential. If a learner's name was misspelled or if a reference comment needs to be updated to reflect a new achievement level, the agent can locate the reference id and push the update. This happens in real time, so the learner sees the corrected information on their digital credential page immediately. This removes the need to delete and reissue the certificate, which would change the unique credential id and break any links the learner has already shared.
