Login and Links manage your list of links and logins. A link is a quick way to access external websites, such as your district’s website. Login is a link, but it stores a username and password so you can automatically sign in to any external site. NOTE: Logins/Links may be set for you by your District.
ADD A LOGIN OR LINK
Start by finding My Creations in the left navigation bar, clicking the down arrow to the right, and clicking My Logins/Links.
First-time users will see a landing page. To add a Login or Link, Click here to create your first or click the Actions Gear button in the top right and choose to Create New Login/Link.
Notice the header has a tab for Login and one for Link. You are in the Create Login screen when you first come to the screen. If you’d like to create a link, click the Link tab.
ADDING A LOGIN
Select the Login screen. Under the Login Options, a drop-down menu will appear. The available logins are those approved by your District; if you are not given options, this functionality is not yet available. Please add a link instead, or email support@schooldata.net and request a Login be set up for your district.
Once you have chosen a Login, the screen will auto-populate a Label, Username, and Password. Update the Label to anything memorable to you. Ensure the username and password are associated with your chosen login option. Confirm Password and click the Save button. You will now see your login on the My Logins/Links list.
You will also see the Login in your Login and Links container on your Dashboard. Clicking the link will take you to the website and automatically log you in.
Notice the icon that prefaces the label. This Login icon will help you differentiate a Login from a Link in your Logins and Links container.

EDIT/DELETE A LOGIN OR LINK
Start by finding My Creations in the left navigation bar and clicking the drop-down menu to My Logins/Links.
You will see a list of your Logins and Links; find the one you want to edit or delete. Next, click the Actions Gear icon to the right. This will give you the option to Edit Item or Delete Item. First, choose the option you would like to perform. The Edit Item options will open the prefilled Create Login or Link form, where you can edit the data and save your changes. NOTE: if you edit a Login, you’ll need to re-enter the password. If you make any other changes and don’t re-enter the password, the form will save your password as blank, and the Login will not work.
