You do not need to manually create accounts of users who are already rostered through Clever, ClassLink, or any other integrated rostering service.

Manually create individual users

  1. Log in with your Site Admin account.
  2. Click your profile icon at the top-right corner.
  3. From the drop-down menu, click Admin.
  4. On the Users tab in the Site Admin page, select Add new user.
  5. Select the option to Create users one at a time.
  6. Fill out the information within the Add new user popup:
    • Select the desired Role from the dropdown.
    • Enter the user's first name.
    • Enter the user's middle name if desired. This is optional.
    • Enter the user's last name.
    • Enter the user's email address.

    Import Staff Import Students

    In the Add users via CSV popup, click the link to download the CSV template for importing Teachers, School Admins, Authors, or Site Admins.

     Tips

    One CSV file can be used to import any type of staff user accounts. We recommend changing the name of the document before saving to easily locate it later.

  7. Once you've filled out and saved a CSV template, click Select a document. Please note that the school name is optional.
  8. Navigate to the location where your CSV is saved, select that document, then click Open. Files are commonly saved to a Downloads folder unless you've specified a new location.
  9. When the name of your saved file appears below the green Select a document button, click the Upload button to import all of the users.

  10. Before the final import, review the sample of the first few entries to ensure the data is correct, then click Upload. 

     Caution

    If the data doesn't appear correctly, click Cancel, review your CSV file for any issues, save your file, then upload your file again.

  11. Your import will now get processed. You will be automatically directed to the User Jobs tab. From here, you can review the status of your import. 
  12. If you import a large number of users, it may take a few minutes to process. Check back later on the User Jobs tab to review the status of your import.

Frequently asked questions

What happens if a student, teacher, or staff member already exists and I import them again?
If the email address matches an existing email address associated with an account on the site, an upload will not update their account, so they can continue to use the same login credentials without issue.
What should I do if I don't know the exact school name when I'm filling out the template to import user accounts?
The column for the school name is optional, but we recommend you gather that information prior to filling out the CSV template. You can find your school names on the Schools tab at the top within your Site Administration options.
My teacher and staff user accounts that I imported cannot log in. What should I do?
Before a teacher or staff member can log in, they must activate their account first.
