Setup
Setup guide
- 11. In Switchy, open your workspace settings and navigate to the MCP Integrations tab. 2. Click 'Add Integration' and select Accredible certificates from the list. 3. Log into your Accredible dashboard, go to Settings > API Keys, and generate a new key with full read-write permissions. 4. Paste the API key into Switchy's connection form and click 'Connect'. 5. Return to any Space and type '@Accredible certificates list my groups' to confirm the connection works — you should see your certificate templates. 6. To issue a batch of certificates, @mention Accredible and describe the recipient list and group ID; the MCP will call the bulk create endpoint and return status for each credential.
What teammates see: by default, memories from Accredible certificates are scoped to the Space (PROJECT visibility) - you can mark any memory PRIVATE or share it ORG-wide.

Example outputs
Illustrative - representative of the model's voice and quality, not literal recordings.
@Accredible certificates list all credentials issued in the last 30 days and show me which groups they belong to
Found 47 credentials issued since January 15, 2025. Breaking down by group: 'Q1 2025 Product Certification' (23 credentials), 'Advanced Sales Training' (18 credentials), 'Leadership Development Program' (6 credentials). Each credential includes recipient name, issue date, and current status (issued/revoked). The Product Certification group has the highest volume this period, with 12 credentials issued in the last week alone.
This example demonstrates read-heavy credential querying across groups. Requires API key with read access to credentials and groups. Response time scales with account size—larger organizations with thousands of credentials may see slower queries. Useful for monthly reporting or audit workflows.
@Accredible certificates bulk create 15 completion certificates for our January cohort using the 'Data Analytics Bootcamp' group template
Bulk credential creation initiated for 15 recipients in the 'Data Analytics Bootcamp' group. The API returned a 207 Multi-Status response: 13 credentials created successfully, 2 failed due to duplicate email addresses (jane.doe@example.com, mike.chen@example.com). Successfully created credentials have been issued and email notifications sent to recipients. Failed entries require unique email addresses or manual review before retry.
This write-heavy example shows the Bulk Create Credentials (V2) tool handling partial success scenarios. The 30-credential-per-call limit means larger cohorts need multiple batches. Failed credentials don't roll back successful ones—you'll need to track which recipients didn't receive certificates and handle retries separately.
@Accredible certificates review all credentials in the 'Expired Q4 2024 Certifications' group and draft a re-certification campaign email summarizing who needs renewal
Analyzed 34 credentials in the 'Expired Q4 2024 Certifications' group. 28 have expired (expiration dates between Oct-Dec 2024), 6 are still active. Draft email: 'Hi team, 28 professionals from our Q4 2024 cohort need re-certification. Breakdown: 15 from Sales Enablement track, 9 from Technical Training, 4 from Compliance modules. Recommend prioritizing the 9 Technical Training renewals—these roles require current certification for client-facing work. Attached: full recipient list with expiration dates and original course completion scores.' This combines credential metadata with renewal urgency logic.
This synthesis example pairs Accredible's credential data with AI reasoning to prioritize action. Requires read access to group membership and credential metadata (expiration dates, course details). The AI infers urgency from context you provide—it doesn't know your org's compliance rules, so verify recommendations before sending campaigns.
Use-case deep-dives
When Accredible wins for issuing 20-30 certificates at once
A 6-person bootcamp team graduates 25 students every 8 weeks and needs to issue completion certificates the same day. Accredible's bulk-create tool handles up to 30 credentials in one call, which maps perfectly to typical cohort sizes. The team sets up a group template once, then runs the bulk tool with a CSV of graduate names and completion dates. The multi-status response flags any duplicates or missing fields without blocking the batch. This works until you hit 40+ graduates per cohort—at that point you're splitting batches or scripting multiple calls, and the API key auth means you can't delegate issuance to non-technical staff. If your cohorts stay under 30 and one admin owns the process, Accredible keeps graduation day predictable.
When this MCP handles recurring credential refreshes
A 50-person HR team at a healthcare company reissues HIPAA training certificates every 12 months for 200 employees. They clone last year's group, update the expiration date, and bulk-create credentials from their LMS export. The evidence-item tool lets them attach quiz scores or attendance logs to each certificate for audit trails. The delete-credential tool handles the 5-10 employees who leave mid-cycle without orphaning records. This setup works because the credential schema is stable and the team already maintains a single source of truth in their LMS. If your training types change frequently or you need real-time syncing with an LMS, you'll spend more time managing group templates than issuing certificates. For annual or quarterly cycles with predictable schemas, Accredible keeps compliance documentation centralized.
When Accredible scales multi-tier partner programs
A 12-person partner ops team at a B2B SaaS company runs a three-tier certification program (bronze, silver, gold) for 400 resellers. They create one collection to group the tiers, then use separate groups for each level with custom badge designs. When a partner completes training, the team issues a credential and adds evidence items linking to completed modules. The clone-group tool speeds up launching regional variants (EMEA bronze, APAC bronze) without rebuilding templates. This works because the team has API key access and partners expect certificates within 48 hours, not real-time. If you need instant issuance triggered by a learning platform webhook, the 14-tool scope and manual API calls add friction. For partner programs where a small ops team batches weekly issuance, Accredible keeps tier management and evidence tracking in one place.
Frequently asked
What does the Accredible MCP let me do in Switchy?
It lets your team issue, update, and delete digital credentials through Accredible's API without leaving Switchy. You can bulk-create up to 30 certificates at once, clone credential groups, manage evidence items, and delete credentials. Useful if you run training programs or certifications and want AI agents to handle routine credentialing tasks based on your data.
Do I need admin access to connect Accredible?
You need an Accredible API key with write permissions. Typically only account admins or group owners can generate keys that create and delete credentials. If you only have read access, the MCP won't be able to issue certificates or modify groups. Check your Accredible dashboard under API settings before connecting.
Can the MCP revoke or expire credentials automatically?
The MCP includes a delete tool that permanently removes credentials, but it doesn't expose Accredible's revoke or expiry endpoints directly. If you need to mark a certificate as revoked without deleting it, you'll have to do that in the Accredible dashboard or via a separate API call outside Switchy for now.
Why use this instead of Accredible's web dashboard?
The dashboard is fine for one-off certificates. The MCP shines when you want AI agents to issue credentials in response to events—like completing a course in your LMS or passing a quiz. You can chain it with other MCPs in Switchy to automate the entire workflow, no manual CSV uploads or clicking through forms.
Who on my team should connect the Accredible MCP?
Whoever manages your credentialing program and has API key access. Since the MCP can delete credentials and clone groups, you don't want every team member connecting it. One or two people with admin rights should own the connection, then share Switchy workspaces with colleagues who need to trigger certificate issuance.
