Group Import

Product: LaunchPad

Audience: ClassLink Administrator

Before a user can log into the system, the user must belong to a group which is subsequently assigned to a profile. Groups can be imported from an Active Directory, Google, or Azure domain.

Importing Groups

1. In the Management Console, go to Groups and Users -> Group Import and click the green Next below your domain.

2. Select a Profile (Student, Teacher, or Tenant Profile), choose a Wallpaper and Theme, then click the green Next button in the bottom right corner.

3. Select your queried groups from your domain and then click the green Import button in the bottom right corner.

Note: When importing Active Directory groups, only security groups are recognized.

Newly imported groups can be located in Groups and Users->Groups. The Users column will indicate "0" users. Upon login, their accounts will be auto-provisioned into the corresponding groups in ClassLink. However, you can click the 0 to manually sync the users into the system. This will sync all direct members of your group.

Note: You can also choose to leave it at zero - syncing is not necessary. Members of these groups can still log into ClassLink.
