Hey School Admin! Are you looking to share only certain classes with your app?
You can do this by setting a "share by class" licensing rule. Follow these steps to filter down to only the classes you want to share.
Step 1: Log into your Edlink account
Go to ed.link and log into your admin account. Click the Integrations tab in the sidebar, and select your app integration.
Step 2: Navigate to the Sharing Rules page
Once you've selected your app integration, click Sharing Rules left sidebar.
Step 3: Create a Share By Class rule
Click Create a Rule and select Share by Class in the dropdown that pops up.
You'll see a form that you'll use to create a rule that will limit the data shared with your app.
You can create rules based on different data in your system, such as class and teacher. For example, if you wish to filter by exact class title use the "Is Any Of" condition.
Or, if you wish to share all classes containing the word "Science," in the title, use the condition "Contains Any Of".
You may use the search bar on the preview tab to check if a specific user is shared via your new rule.
Note: You must click “enter” on your keyboard after typing in the search bar for this rule to be entered properly. Simply clicking out of the search bar or clicking “save changes” before clicking “enter” WILL NOT set the rule.
Step 4: Save your changes
When you're finished setting the rule, click Save Changes.
To set the rule live, check the “Enable District Sharing Rules” checkbox and click "Switch to Share By Rules".
Your rule is now live!
Note: The rule must materialize in Edlink, which could take a few minutes.
Once the materialization is complete, you can see the data that's currently being shared to your app via the tabs on the left-hand side of the page.
