Managing Resources

Configuring SSO and Provisioning Connectors

SSO and Provisioning Connectors require additional configuration. To configure an SSO or Provisioning Connector:

1. In the AppStore tab > Passport Configuration screen, locate the SSO or Provisioning Connector that you want to configure. Check the checkbox at the top left of that Resource, and then click the Configure link at the top of the Services section to open the Properties screen for the selected SSO or Provisioning Connector.
2. Configure the SSO or Provisioning Connector in the Properties screen.
3. Click SAVE at the bottom to save your changes and return to the Passport Configuration screen.

Adding a Bookmark

A bookmark is a URL or other Resource that is publicly available as a hyperlink to a web page. The Admin Console allows you to add a Bookmark for folders, Users, Roles, or Groups within an organization.

To add a Bookmark:

1. In the AppStore tab > Passport Configuration screen, select the Organization for which you want to add a Bookmark using the Organization pull-down menu. Next, click the ADD BOOKMARK button in the Service table.
2. Enter a name for the Bookmark - this will be the name that end-users see when they log into SSO Passport. Add the complete URL to the Bookmark in the appropriate fields, add an image (if desired), and then click OK to finish adding the Bookmark.

Editing Bookmark

To edit a Bookmark:

1. Select AppStore to open the Passport Configuration screen.
2. Select the Organization for which you want to edit the Bookmark using the Organization pull-down menu.
3. In the Services section of this screen, locate the Bookmark that you want to edit and check the checkbox at the top left of that Bookmark. Next, click the Configure link at the top of the Services section.
4. The Details popup will appear with the current information for the selected Resource/Bookmark. Make the changes, and then click OK to save those changes and return to the Passport Configuration screen. Click cancel to leave the bookmark as it is and dismiss the popup.

Assigning Resources/Bookmarks

To assign one or more Resources and/or Bookmarks to one specific user, Role, or Group within the Organization:

1. Select the Organization for which you want to add the Resource(s) or Bookmark(s), and then select the user, Role, or Group to which you want to assign the Resource(s) or Bookmark(s).
2. Locate the Resource(s) or Bookmark(s) that you want to add.
3. To assign the selected Resource(s) or Bookmark(s) to a single user Role or Group, click the Assign link.
4. Select the folder in which you want to place the selected Resource(s).

Individual end-users or end-users who belong to the selected Role or Group will now be able to access and use the assigned Resource(s) when they log into School Passport.

Bulk-Assigning Resources/Bookmarksʼ

To bulk-assign the Resource(s) or Bookmark(s) to multiple user Roles/Groups perform the same steps from the section described above. But:

1. Instead of clicking the Assign link, click the Bulk Assign link.
2. The Bulk Assign Resources popup appears, displaying each of the Roles and Groups within the selected Organization.
3. Check the checkbox(es) next to the Role(s) and/or Group(s) to which you want to assign the selected Resource(s) or Bookmark(s).

The selected Resource(s) or/and Bookmark(s) appear in the Group/Role section of the Passport Configuration screen in the specified folder. You can use the User Roles & Groups pull-down menu at the top of the Passport Configuration screen to select each affected user Role/Group to see the Resource(s) or Bookmark(s) that you just assigned.

End users who belong to the selected Roles and/or Groups will now be able to access and use the bulk-assigned Resource(s) when they log into SSO Passport.

Removing Resources

You can remove a Resource when one or more of the user Groups and/or Roles no longer needs access to that Resource. The Resource remains activated; if it is a paid Resource and your Organization has a Standard subscription, then the Resource still counts toward your limit of five (5) paid Resources.

To remove a Resource:

1. Select AppStore to open the Passport Configuration screen.
2. Use the Organization and User Roles & Groups pull-down menus to select the specific user Group/Role from which you need to remove the Resource(s).
3. In the Group/Role section, locate the Resource(s) that you want to remove, and then check the checkbox(es) at the top left of the Resource(s). Click the Remove link.
4. The Confirm popup will appear. Click OK to confirm the removal or Cancel to dismiss the changes.

Deleting Resources

Deleting one or more Resources permanently removes the selected Resource(s) from the Passport Configuration screen. The deleted Resource(s) can no longer be accessed by any users. This is a permanent action. If you deleted a Resource and need it restored, activate it from the catalog again from scratch.

To permanently delete one or more Resources:

1. Select AppStore to open the Passport Configuration screen.
2. In the Group/Role section, locate the Resource(s) that you want to delete, and then check the checkbox(es) at the top left of the Resource(s). Click the Delete link.
3. The Confirm popup appears. Click OK to confirm the deletion or Cancel to dismiss the changes.
