{ "recipient": "[email protected]", "evidence": "http://umtnt.tumblr.com", "issued_on": "2013-10-10", "badge": { "version": "1.0.0", "name": "BadgeBuildTest", "image": "http://www.ns.umich.edu/btest/tnt-badge.png", "description": "Has displayed expertise in hand-made badge creation.", "criteria": "http://umtnt.tumblr.com", "issuer": { "origin": "http://umtnt.tumblr.com", "name": "TrendsAndTechName", "org": ”Test Badge, 2013", "contact": "[email protected]" } } }
Uploaded a png & baked it
Use the Mozilla “baker” service: Append your URL to the URL below:
http://backpack.openbadges.org/baker?assertion =http://your-json-url.json
Enter this URL in a browser
Mozilla’s baker service interprets the .JSON file, attaches that data to the .PNG image designated in the .JSON file, in effect, binding the image and data.
The end result is a new .PNG file for download.
