EdSmart is integrated to the Office 365 Sign-In system, which means your staff can sign into EdSmart using their school-issued Office 365 accounts.

This is not enabled by default. In order to configure this please contact us and provide the following information:

  1. Your Office 365 domain

  2. Whether or not EdSmart should automatically create Users when staff initially log in*.

*If this is not enabled, then staff without a pre-configured EdSmart account won't be able to sign in.

 

We may be able to sync your Staff Users from your student management system to ensure everyone has a User account in EdSmart - for example so they can be selected on workflows, even if they have not yet signed into EdSmart.

If you have students (or other non-staff) on the same Office domain, then we will discuss with you how to filter these out. For example, we can read fields like 'Department' to achieve this.

Once Office 365 Sign-In is configured, go to the Sign In page and click the 'Sign in with Microsoft' button.
