If you'd like to make signing in easier, look no further - Typing Agent provides Single Sign On (SSO) through Google, Office 365, ClassLink, and Clever for teachers, administrators, and students.
​
You can customize each of these in the District or School Portal area of your account if you are a school administrator of a single school or a district dministrator. Simply select Settings > District Portal/School Portal from your dashboard.

Google SSO

If enabled by your admin staff and students will see a Google button you can use to sign in. The first time, you will be asked by Google to authorize Typing Agent to connect with your Google profile. You must accept this.

To properly work, the staff/student username in Typing Agent must be their Google email address.

Microsoft Office 365 SSO

If enabled by your admin staff and students will see a Microsoft button you can use to sign in. The first time, you will be asked by Microsoft to authorize Typing Agent to connect with your Office 365 profile. You must accept this.

ClassLink SSO

If enabled by your admin staff and students will see a ClassLink button you can use to sign in. The first time, you will be asked by ClassLink to authorize Typing Agent to connect with your ClassLink profile. You must accept this.

Clever SSO

Clever Instant Login (SSO) is automatically enabled when Clever Sync is active. The default expectation is that Teachers and Students will log in to Typing Agent through their Clever dashboards by signing in to Clever and clicking on the Typing Agent icon. They can also use the Log in with Clever button on your Typing Agent login page.

Examples of SSO from Typing Agent Portal:

Once logged into the service that your students and staff use to log in and click on the icon that they use to log in with.
