Edugate can support access to services that accept the European Student Identifier (ESI) such as those supported by European Digital Student Service Infrastructure (EDSSI), including Erasmus+.   If you wish to enable this for your institution your Identity Provider Administrator (IdP Admin) for your institution should be contacted , usually this is a member of the institutions IT department.
