Troubleshooting #

Need help with ClassLink SSO? Here are some common issues and solutions:

  • You might be locked out of Presto Assistant if you are in a "director" role but are not a district employee that can use ClassLink. In this case, ask a director to switch you to a parent role.
    • When switched to a parent role, you will maintain all permission levels except for settings only visible by directors.

I signed up with a different email address #

  • If you signed up for Presto Assistant with a different email address than your ClassLink email, you should:
    • Sign in to Presto Assistant with your email and password used when creating your Presto account.
    • Choose the organization from the list of organizations where you have a membership.
    • Go to the Profile settings page (Profile menu → Manage your Presto profile).
    • Press the button labeled "Change Username" and switch the Presto Assistant email address to match ClassLink.
