Frequently asked questions
Can I verify that someone is affiliated with SMHI?
Yes. SMHI participates in SWAMID, which shares academic identity providers through eduGAIN. Users prove their affiliation by signing in with their SMHI account via SAML single sign-on — no document uploads, no passwords, no identity data stored on Studid.
Does SMHI support persistent identifiers?
No. SMHI 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.

How do I verify students from SMHI?
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 SMHI. The integration guide has a complete walkthrough.
