About this tag
The badge credential mapping tag covers Microsoft’s planned Universal Print Badge API, which connects physical badge credentials such as cards or NFC tokens with Microsoft 365 user identities. The feature is intended to let compatible printers release held print jobs when a user taps a mapped badge. Current plans describe a preview in December 2026 and general availability in June 2027 for commercial Microsoft 365, GCC, GCC High, and DoD cloud environments. This archive is relevant to administrators tracking cloud printing, identity-based badge workflows, secure document release, and Microsoft’s effort to make workplace badges a usable identity signal.
