Frequently asked questions

Can I verify that someone is affiliated with HEAL-Link?

Yes. HEAL-Link participates in GRNET, which shares academic identity providers through eduGAIN. Users prove their affiliation by signing in with their HEAL-Link account via SAML single sign-on — no document uploads, no passwords, no identity data stored on Studid.

Does HEAL-Link support persistent identifiers?

No. HEAL-Link 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 HEAL-Link in?

HEAL-Link is located in Greece.

How do I verify students from HEAL-Link?

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 HEAL-Link. The integration guide has a complete walkthrough.
