Adding a Single User to Your Minga

Permission Level: Owner | Manager

This is for adding a single user. To add multiple users, go here.

🚨 NOTE:

If automatic rostering through your SIS is possible, we strongly recommend setting this up. With automatic rostering, all active users in your SIS will be automatically rostered into your Minga, and their profiles updated in each nightly sync. We're also able to auto-archive users who are no longer active in your SIS, revoking their access to your Minga. Click here for a helpful guide on setting up automatic rostering.

If you've already set up automatic rostering and you're adding a student or teacher because they don't seem to be syncing automatically, please double-check that they have an active profile in your SIS.
