Written by Adam

Open your profile menu

Click your profile avatar.

From the menu, select Public ID Card.

This opens the Public ID Card section in your profile.

Review the Public ID Card section

In the Public ID Card section, check whether there is already an active share link.

If there is no active link, the section shows:

No active share link.

Click Share ID card to create a temporary public link.

Generate the public ID link

A confirmation window will appear asking:

Generate public ID link?

Review the message, then click Generate link.

The system creates a temporary public link for the staff ID card.

Copy the generated link

After the link is generated, it is automatically copied to your clipboard.

A confirmation message appears:

Share link generated

The link has been copied to your clipboard.

You can now paste the link into an email, message, or document.

The generated link card shows:

  • ID card name

  • Public link domain

  • Who generated the link

  • Time remaining

  • Number of views

Open or manage the link

Click the more options menu beside the generated link.

Available options may include:

  • Open in new tab

  • Manage links

  • Revoke link

Use Open in new tab to preview the public ID card.

Use Manage links to view active public ID links.

Use Revoke link to remove access.

Check the public staff ID page

When opened, the public link displays a read-only staff ID card.

The public ID page may show details such as:

  • Staff name

  • Role

  • Organisation

  • Contact number, if included on the public ID card

  • ID number

  • Issue date

  • Valid status

The page is read-only and is intended for informational purposes only.

Manage active links

If a link already exists, click Manage links or open the Share ID card window.

The Share ID card window shows active public links and may include:

  • Public link URL

  • Time remaining

  • View count

  • Copy button

  • Revoke option

  • New link button

Click the copy icon to copy an active link again.

Click New link to generate another temporary link.

Revoke a public ID link

To remove access to a public ID link, click Revoke.

A confirmation window appears:

Revoke this share link?

Click Revoke to confirm.

Once revoked, the link stops working immediately. Anyone who already opened the card will lose access on their next refresh.

Confirm the link was revoked

After revoking the link, a confirmation message appears:

Share link revoked

The revoked link is removed from the active link list.

If no active links remain, the Public ID Card section returns to the no active link state.

Create a link for a staff member

Admins with the correct access can create or manage public ID links for a staff member.

Go to Staff, then open the staff member’s profile.

Find the Public ID Card section and follow the same steps:

  1. Click Share ID card.

  2. Confirm by clicking Generate link.

  3. Copy or share the generated link.

  4. Manage or revoke the link when needed.

Important Notes

  • Public staff ID links are temporary and expire after 60 minutes.

  • Anyone with the link can view the public staff ID card while the link is active.

  • The link is automatically copied to your clipboard when it is generated.

  • The public page is read-only.

  • Private profile information and compliance records are not shown on the public ID card.

  • You can revoke a link at any time.

  • Revoked links stop working immediately.

  • Use New link if you need to generate a fresh public ID link.
