FAQ for Student Information System (SIS) integration for teachers

To use the SIS integration features, all teachers must have one of the following:

• A Google Workspace for Education Plus license
• A Teaching and Learning Upgrade license

Starting July 9, 2024, you must have one of these licenses in order to use the grade export feature.

A student needs to have the same email address in Classroom and your SIS. If you’re not sure how to check this, ask your Google Workspace for Education administrator.

• Check that the primary teacher’s email address in the SIS is correct. The email address should match the Google Workspace for Education email address for Classroom.
• Make sure you’re listed as the primary teacher for the class in your SIS. Only the primary teacher in the SIS can link a Classroom class.
• Confirm that your admin connected Classroom to your SIS.

Tip: If you have SIS options on your Classroom Settings page, your admin sets up the connection.
