- Under the More tab, select District Settings.
- Click the Permissions tab.
- These are all of the permissions that are currently set as the defaults for the various roles. Use the tabs at the top to view the permissions for each of the roles (teacher, school administrator, district administrator). The teacher role is selected by default.
- Some of the permissions are highlighted in light blue. These are the default permissions that Edgenuity recommends for each role. Toggle the highlighting on or off by clicking the box Show Edgenuity Defaults.
- After selecting the appropriate tab for the role to edit, click Edit at the bottom right of the page to make updates to the default permissions.
- Check or uncheck the boxes next to the permissions.
- A checked permission means new users of that role will automatically have that permission enabled by default.
- An unchecked permission prevents new users of that role from completing those tasks.
- By default, the changes will only affect new users. To affect all users of that role throughout the district, click the link for I want to apply these permissions to existing accounts.
Caution
Applying permissions to existing accounts removes custom permissions from existing user accounts and is not recommended.
- Save the changes by clicking Save at the bottom right of the page, or click Cancel to discard the updates.
- Navigate to the other role tabs as needed and follow the same steps to update the default permissions.
Tips
Updating default permissions is useful at the end of the year when cleaning up your accounts, or when new permissions are added to Edgenuity. When new permissions are added to Edgenuity, we recommend that you update the defaults as needed, but do not update all users of those roles. You could potentially overwrite customized permissions for your users. Instead, use the Manage Educators page and select multiple educators to update permissions.
