Mark CE Information as Confidential
To mark the certified entity data as confidential through file upload.
In the certification template, look for the Confidential Certified Entity field
v1 & v1.1
Field Name: Confidential Certified Entity
found in sheet: Certification
<confidential_certified_entity></confidential_certified_entity>
v2 & v2.1
Field Name: Confidential Certified Entity
found in sheet: Certifed Entity
<confidential_certified_entity></confidential_certified_entity>
In the cell/input field, you may input either of the following:
Yes (data is hidden and kept confidential)
No (data is published publicly)
Once updated, upload the file either via the file uploader in IAF CertSearch or FTP upload.
Once uploaded, the confidential data will no longer be visible on the CE's public page.
Managing confidentiality for specific fields is temporarily unavailable in the AB account.
To manage Confidentiality via API go to the API Documentation.

How does Confidentiality affect Searchability?
If the Certified Entity name is confidential then the Certificate Number should remain searchable, while the Certified Entity Name shouldn’t be searchable.
