What a lookup tells you

Enough to trust the claim, and nothing more.

All you need is the credential ID. There is no account to create, no email to confirm and nothing to wait for. The lookup does not show the certificate document, and it tells you nothing about the holder beyond what the credential states. To see what a real certificate carries, look at the specimen.

Checking credentials at volume?

The same lookup is available as a public, CORS-enabled API. It is free, needs no key and returns the fields above as JSON, so you can call it from an applicant-tracking system instead of a browser tab.
