Pro Tips

Keep Supplier Data Current

Connected suppliers can update their own factory data. The changes propagate automatically to all passports that reference them — no extra work needed on your end.

Invite Your Team

Go to Team Hub and invite colleagues. You can assign different roles to control who can publish passports, add suppliers, or only view analytics.

Export Your Data Anytime

Use the Export Data option in the sidebar to download a full JSON archive of all your passports, supplier data, and scan records for compliance reporting.
