Create your own achievement

Anyone can add an achievement to the catalog. Inspect your public credential so the rule matches exactly what the validator stores, write the card, and submit it as a pull request. Once merged, it appears in the app for everyone within seconds.

1 Inspect the credential

Paste the public link for the source. The tool runs the same code the live validator uses, so the value it returns is exactly what your rule must match.

Find your handle in your Credly profile URL: credly.com/users/your-handle.

2 Write the achievement

The rule is filled from step 1. Add the flavor, pick a category, rarity and points. The preview below is the real card and updates as you type.

Flavor text shown on the card. Em dashes you type are stripped automatically, matching the catalog house style.
Use the certification's recognized name or acronym (cka, pl-500-power-automate-rpa), not the themed title. The YAML filename must equal the slug, and other achievements reference it in combo rules, so renaming later resets holders' unlock state.
Set only if the vendor retired this exam. Once the date passes, every holder's unlock becomes a Relic (0 points), automatically. Per-user expiry (the Void) is not set here: it is derived from each holder's credential expiry.
Matching rule
value is a case-insensitive substring of the stored name. Shorter, distinctive substrings are more robust.
Series (optional)
Display-only: every member stays its own achievement with its own points; the app collapses the group into one row. All members share the same key, kind, and label.

3 Submit it as a pull request

Your file lands at achievements/data/sf-tableau-desktop-foundations.yaml in the public catalog repo. On merge, a webhook syncs the catalog into the app and the achievement appears for everyone within seconds.

  • Schema: CI validates the file against the same schema this editor uses, so a copied file passes as-is.
  • Filename: the YAML filename must equal the slug (the path above is already correct).
  • Title lint: duplicate or formulaic titles ("yet another ...Whisperer") are flagged.
  • Review: a maintainer double-checks the rule value against the credential before merging.

The schema also supports optional resources (study links shown with the achievement); see CONTRIBUTING.md in the catalog repo if you need them.
