How do I let non-Google-admin users initiate data loads?
Add the user to your td.administrators group (or its equivalent, if the name is different). This will let the user access Hāpara Admin Console and initiate data loads. Due to caching, there may be some delay before the user can access the Hāpara Admin Console.
How do I archive classes?
Please refer to our archiving article for all information about archiving.
How do I configure Google Cloud Directory Sync for Hāpara?
Hāpara is fully compatible with GCDS and will not interfere with student account creation, suspension or deletion, and is not impacted by changes to group membership for directory-services-managed groups.
If GCDS is configured to delete unknown user accounts (default configuration), the school.apps.owner account created by Hāpara (or the local equivalent, if the name was changed) should be excluded from the sync through an exclusion rule or added to your directory services.
If GCDS is configured to delete unknown groups (default configuration), please ensure that two exclusion rules are added:
- Ignore groups starting with "td."—these are "housekeeping" groups used by Hapara Dashboard.
- Ignore groups that contain your academic year suffix "-1415" (or whatever you choose as your suffix). These are the class groups created and managed by Hapara Dashboard.
For full detailed instructions on how to setup GCDS exclusion rules, please see our GCDS article.
