Once a badge has been awarded, the recipient's information cannot be edited. If a change to the recipient is needed after awarding a badge, issuers must revoke the badge and awarding it again with the correct recipient data.

Narrative text consists of personalized information about the badge from the issuer.

Add Evidence
Evidence is proof that the earner satisfied the earning criteria required for the badge they received.
Notes:

- For evidence items, each may include an external URL, a narrative or both. The narrative of each item often is used to describe what is found at the URL, so a student understands what the content is before viewing.
