Verify users from ESA
ESA is a member of eduID.tg, one of the national research and education federations that share academic identity providers through eduGAIN. That means you can verify a user's affiliation with ESA by having them sign in with their ESA account via SAML single sign-on — no document uploads, no passwords, no identity data stored on Studid.

Frequently asked questions
Can I verify that someone is affiliated with ESA?
Yes. ESA participates in eduID.tg, which shares academic identity providers through eduGAIN. Users prove their affiliation by signing in with their ESA account via SAML single sign-on — no document uploads, no passwords, no identity data stored on Studid.
Does ESA support persistent identifiers?
No. ESA only advertises transient (per-login) identifiers, so authIdentifier will typically be null. You can still confirm which institution the user logged in from via entityId.
Which country is ESA in?
ESA is located in Togo.
How do I verify students from ESA?
Create a verification session via POST /v2/auth/verification, redirect the user to the returned link, and poll GET /v2/auth/verification/{id} after they authenticate at ESA. The integration guide has a complete walkthrough.
