# Verify your character

## Why?

Some feature inside Teamcraft require your character to be verified. This is meant to avoid list trolling for big FCs or even identity issues when a list is shared or an action is made on a given list.<br>

A character that isn't verified will have its avatar greyed while a verified one will have it full color. The tooltip on a non-verified character also specifies that it isn't verified.

## How?

1. Log in to your account and navigate to your [profile editor page](https://ffxivteamcraft.com/profile).
2. From here, click the small check mark right next to your character's name (see the image above).
3. Clicking on this will show you a dialog box with a code (something like "AnY86GOeqBbE2aEPJpRhpefNzpu2") to copy.
4. Paste this code inside your lodestone bio ([direct link](https://eu.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/my/setting/profile/)) and don't forget to save it.
5. Once this is done, go back to Teamcraft and click "Verify".

{% hint style="info" %}
The code to paste is always the same for your account, if you closed the dialog box between steps 3 and 5, you can just reopen it for step 5.
