Badge Challenges | Axero Documentation

Badges encourage people to take part in your intranet. You can create badges that people earn by completing specific actions. A badge challenge sets out the actions a user must complete to earn the badge.

Add Badge Challenge

1. Click the gear icon > Control Panel > People > Recognition > Challenges.
2. Click Add Challenge.
3. Enter a Challenge Title and a Description. Both are required.
4. In Award Content, select the badge people earn when they complete the challenge.
5. Check the options that apply: Is Active, Steps must be completed in order, Challenge can be repeated multiple times on this site, and Any user can repeat this challenge multiple times. If points are turned on, you can also enter Points to Award.
6. Under Challenge Steps, click Add a Step. Enter a Title, choose the Action people must take and the Number required, then click Add a Step to add it. Repeat for each action in the challenge.
7. Click Save.

How the Badge Is Earned

Someone receives the badge the moment they complete the last action in the challenge. There is no approval step and nothing to run: the badge appears on their profile as soon as they finish.

Only actions taken after the challenge is created count toward it. Someone who did all of those things last month does not receive the badge after the fact.

If somebody clearly qualifies but never went through the steps, an administrator can award the badge directly: open their profile, click Recognize, choose the recognition program, pick the badge, and click Submit.
