Here's a summary of the process for creating sharing rules in Edlink.
- Go to the Edlink Dashboard
- Select the integration you want to configure
- Click Sharing Rules in the upper-left corner
Remember to click Save Changes after adding or editing a sharing rule and check the box labeled Enable District Rules (or Enable Developer Rules for developers) to activate your rules. If this box is not selected, your rules will not be applied.
Click Create a Rule, then choose which type of sharing rule you want to create.
Share by Class
Sharing by class allows you to include an entire class using methods like the class name or the teacher's email. This is the most common type of sharing rule used.
Watch this video to learn how to set it up.
Share by Person
This rule allows you to include or exclude specific users.
If the person is a teacher, you can also choose to share all their associated enrollments.

Share by School
This allows you to include or exclude an entire school — helpful if you want to exclude everyone from a particular building, for example.
