This article explains how to add users manually, not using Clever, Classlink, an SFTP sync or a one-time upload.
New teacher and administrator accounts can be created manually. Most user accounts in Forefront are created by rostering and syncing. Teacher accounts are created when classes are rostered.
Cases where it may make sense to create a user manually:
- Leaders who don’t use Clever/ClassLink SSO and want to access Forefront.
- Creating a few leader/user accounts that do not have classes assigned to them automatically.
If you are creating lots of user accounts manually, stop and refer to Rostering help docs or email support@forefront.education.
Step 1: Navigate to the Users page by selecting the page from the left-hand navigation pane.
Step 2: Select the “Create New User” icon to add a user.
Step 3: Fill out the fields to create new user.
Step 4: Confirm log in method.
GoogleOAuth is most comment with not using Clever or ClassLink.
