How to automatically remove students not in uploaded data 

If your school uses SIS integration with Hāpara, you may find that classes still contain students who have withdrawn from your school or district. In the Hāpara Admin Console, you may choose to automatically remove students no longer included in the most recent load from class rosters. It can be enabled as a one-off setting for manual Data Loads, or a persistent setting for automated Sync from SIS loads.

Important Note:  DO NOT enable this option if:

1. You are unsure of how your data sync works.
2. You do not include all students with every sync.
3. You are doing a partial data load

Once this option is enabled, any students not included in a data load will be removed from the class rosters in Hāpara. As a result teachers will lose visibility into these students' work and students will lose access to Hāpara Workspace and Student Dashboard.

To enable the setting for SIS syncs, take the following steps:

1. Go to the Hāpara Admin Console.
2. Click Data Loader at the top of the page.
3. Click Configure Sync, then Begin Sync Configuration.
4. Update your SIS settings if necessary, then click Next.
5. Check Load Student, then check Remove every student not listed in the uploaded data (see screenshot).
