Allowing Teach Me Maths to read Google Classroom class lists

In short

• Read-only. Nothing in Google Classroom is ever changed.
• Only the teacher signs in to Google, and only to their own classes. Students never grant access.
• Only student names and school email addresses are read, and only when the teacher runs an import or sync.
• Teachers can disconnect at any time from their Google account settings.

The three permissions we request

How to allow it in the Google Admin console

You only need this if your domain restricts third-party apps or restricts access to Google Classroom data. It takes about two minutes. Google occasionally renames menu items, so the wording may differ slightly.

1. 1
   Sign in to admin.google.com with an administrator account.
2. 2
   Go to Security → Access and data control → API controls.
3. 3
   Under App access control, click Manage third-party app access, then Configure new app.
4. 4
   Search for Teach Me Maths or paste the client ID above, and select it.
5. 5
   Choose who it applies to. Your staff or teachers organisational unit is enough; students don't need it for the import.
6. 6
   Set access to Trusted (or Specific Google data with Classroom selected), then click Finish.

Changes usually apply within a few minutes, but Google says they can take up to 24 hours.

Students under 18

The Classroom import is run by the teacher only, so it isn't affected by Google's rules for users designated as under 18. If your students sign in to Teach Me Maths with their school Google account and your domain blocks unconfigured apps for under-18 users, please also allow the Teach Me Maths sign-in app for your student organisational units. That sign-in only shares each student's name and email address.
