Whitelisting URLs for Highlights Follow
In order for Highlights to function properly, the Highlights extension needs to send and receive data from services outside of the school network. Accordingly, any content filter or firewall that limits access to the internet from the school network will need to allow connections to the destinations below (on the ports and protocols specified).
You can find a full comprehensive list URLs Hāpara recommends whitelisting here.
