Hi there

Everyone in my class was able to get verified, except one student. She still gets the 7-day limit banner after several verification attempts. SheerID page says she reached her max attempts…

 

Help, please :D

Hi ​@cschmid.gbc, thanks for reaching out.

Please contact SheerID directly, since they fully manage the verification process for higher-education students. They’re the only ones who can review her attempts and reset the limit if needed.

You can reach their support team via this link: https://support.sheerid.com/en-US/help-center?utm_source=chatgpt.com

They should be able to take a closer look and help reset this for her. If anything else comes up or you need further assistance, feel free to let me know. I’m happy to help!

Everytime I try to upload files into Perplexity to read and highlight it pushes me out to something like “do an upgrade”   I am a student.  I sent them my documents which were accepted

Hey ​@Kurt VELTE, thank you for reaching out! 
I want to make sure I’m understanding this correctly. When you mention “uploading files into Perplexity to read and highlight,” could you share a bit more about what you’re trying to do there?

I can see that you account is still on the free Starter plan. Just to double-check, did you receive confirmation that your education verification was approved?

Getting verified for Education doesn’t automatically upgrade your team. Even if your account shows as “Education,” the team you’re working in still needs to be upgraded or you need to create a new team to upgrade it.

This Help Center article walks you trough it: https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/360041061214-Figma-for-Education#teams.

 

If you can share a bit more about where you’re getting stuck, I’m happy to help out further!
