Creating Stickers for Permissions & Privileges

Use stickers on student profiles to make it easy to identify and understand student achievements, permissions, memberships, and roles at a glance.

Permission Level: Owner | Manager

Creating stickers in Minga allows easy assignment of rules and permissions, appearing at the top of school IDs. They can be made from pre-designed or custom options, offering flexibility to identify user groups. For example, schools use them for lunch passes or campus exit permissions.

The process of creating and managing digital ID stickers for users in Minga involves just a few steps, which enable schools to customize student IDs for special access and benefits.

Create a Sticker

  2. Click Create Sticker
  3. Choose an included Minga sticker or upload an image of your choice (image will need to be in PNG format with a transparent background)
  4. Click Select 
  5. Add the sticker name and choose the optional  Priority ('0' is the highest priority and will show first on the ID).

Create a custom sticker

Add a custom sticker

  1. To create your custom sticker, select ID and navigate to the Stickers tab
  2. Click Create Sticker
  3. Select Upload Your Own and attach a PNG or JPG file with a transparent background.

💡 We have created a Canva template you can create a duplicate of here. This template is view-only. If you have a Canva account, you can copy a version to your account. Otherwise, you can download a copy of each sticker in .png format to edit and personalize in an image editor. Canva also has many stickers in its paid library of designs.

 


Setting Priority Levels

When creating a sticker, you have an optional choice of setting the priority level. The priority level determines the order of placement of the sticker on an ID. 0 is the highest priority, followed by 1, and so on.
A maximum of six stickers will show on the top of a Digital ID. When the device showing the ID is unable to display additional stickers, an arrow will appear, allowing a scroll to view all stickers.
Generally, they should be ordered from most important to least important to Administrators, Teachers, and Staff who are monitoring students.

Adding Stickers to Digital IDs

Stickers can be added to one or many IDs easily. Using the built-in filters, you can find and identify one or groups of users to apply a sticker to.
Minga Support Mockup
To add a specific sticker to an individual ID
  1. From the ID Menu, click the Stickers tab
  2. Click Add on the sticker
  3. Search for the student or user you wish to add the sticker to by name, ID number or email
  4. Click the Add button

💡You can also filter your audience and choose based on Group, Grade, or Role within your Minga, which makes it easy to select multiple recipients of a sticker. For example, all students in a particular grade.

If you wish to add the same sticker to many users from a data set like an Excel (.xlsx) spreadsheet or a comma-separated value (.csv) file;
  1. From the ID Menu, click the Stickers tab
  2. Click Add on the sticker
  3. Click Upload file

Adding a No Access Sticker

The "No Access" Sticker is one added to every Minga by default, and cannot be edited or deleted (though the graphic can be customized). It alerts an admin, teacher, or staff member when checking in individuals into an event. When a student has the sticker on their ID, the staff member can then either deny or proceed with access at their discretion. The "No Access" Sticker is great for students whose privileges are limited due to disciplinary actions.

  1. From the ID Menu, navigate to the Stickers tab
  2. On the No Access List sticker, click Add or List Icon 
  3. You can search by name, ID number, or email, scan an ID with a camera or barcode scanner, or upload a list for bulk adding the No Access Sticker
  4. Once you're done, click Add.

Delete or Deactivate Stickers 

Should you ever no longer need a sticker, you have two options. You can either deactivate a sticker from use for an indefinite amount of time (and reactivate when needed again) or you can permanently delete it. A great example of deactivation in practice is an event volunteer sticker for student helpers, only relevant during a certain event, but will likely be used again.
