Quick-Start Guide for ClassLink District Administrators
The following guide will help you begin the process of setting up your district's or school's MathFactLab account with ClassLink integration.
- Share your ClassLink OneRoster data with MathFactLab.
- In your Roster Server, using Rule-Based Permissions, filter the data down so that students are assigned to exactly one class each. Most likely, this will be their homeroom or math class.
- Here is ClassLink's help doc for this process: Adding Applications & Modifying Permissions.
- Add and assign the MathFactLab SSO app in the ClassLink Management Console.
- Add and assign the MathFactLab app in the ClassLink Management Console.
- Here is ClassLink's help doc for this process: Assigning and Managing Applications.
If there are any issues with your data, we’ll email you with details.
- If the issue can be resolved via email, we’ll proceed that way.
- If a live session is needed, we’ll send you a scheduling link to book a 30-minute call so we can address the issue together and complete your setup immediately.
Points to Keep in Mind
Super-Admins
- Super-Admins do not log in via ClassLink. Super-Admins log in at app.mathfactlab.com using their email address and password or via Google SSO.
Sub-Admins
- Sub-Administrators can be added via ClassLink data or manually on your super-admin dashboard.
- Follow these steps to add sub-admins manually.
Editing Student Settings
- As an admin, you can also make all of the setting changes for individual students or for classes that are available to teachers. The 'Group Edit' feature on the Students tab can make this a very quick process.
- By default, students will be assigned to addition/subtraction. However, students can start the program with multiplication/division instead.
- You may wish to check in with teachers to see which learning mode they wish their students to begin with.
- This help doc will show you how to switch an entire class from one learning mode to the other.
Reports
- Depending on the level of granularity you seek, you can monitor usage and progress from the Schools, Classes, or Students tab. Each of these allows you to download the tab's data by clicking the 'Actions' button and selecting 'Export CSV'.
- These help docs may prove useful: Reports and Admin Reports.

How to Add Sub-Administrators Outside of ClassLink

To Enter Sub-Admins Manually:
