RocketLit isn't fully integrated with Clever and cannot pull roster data automatically, but through a different process, we are able to let students login via Clever as well as get rosters set up for all of your teachers. All that's required is that you or your tech team get us a CSV file with your roster data in it.
Steps in the Setup Process
Create a CSV with roster data including clever teacher ids and clever student ids - Find the exact format and which fields need to be unique below.
Upload the CSV to our SFTP server - When you are ready with this file, let us know and we can send you an SFTP username and password.
Give Clever Permissions to RocketLit - This happens in your Clever dashboard.
Let us Process and Test on our end - We want to make sure the CSV file looks okay and run some test roster syncs.
Test Clever SSO on your end - Once we use your CSV to load all the rosters into our system and everything is set up in Clever, we'd need you to test a few student and teacher accounts by logging into Clever as them, then going to RocketLit or InnerOrbit and using our login with Clever button.
That's all - As student info changes, you can upload a new file and shoot us an email when it's been uploaded, or we can automatically run a file of the same name, nightly. It's up to you.
Details for Each Step
1. CSV
The fields that are needed are:
school_id, school_name,
teacher_email, teacher_first_name, teacher_last_name, teacher_clever_id,
class_id, class_name,
student_first_name, student_last_name, student_clever_id, student_email, student_grade_level
The ones that need to be unique are bolded.
The teacher_clever_id and student_clever_id are called the Clever ID when looking at the details of a teacher or student in Clever. It looks something like 5787451bd72145af0700228b.
It is not the same as a Teacher ID, Teacher Number, Student ID, or Student Number.
If it is difficult for you to access the Clever ID and add it to your CSV, we can alternatively process your CSV if you include the following fields: student_email, teacher_email.
Please limit the classes in the CSV to ONLY ones that will be using RocketLit or InnerOrbit. We'll be processing the entire file and since each student will count against the number of seats on your license, we don't want to have any extra data on there.
2. SFTP
Once you're ready with your file, please email support@rocketlit.com so we can provide you with a username and password.
username: TBD
password: TBD
3. Clever
In order to allow for Clever SSO, we need you to give us permissions for all schools/classes/students that will be using us.
4. Testing on Our End
This should take about a day for us.
5. Testing on Your End
You just need access to log into Clever with student and teacher accounts, then click on our login button and see if it works. That button is located at https://www.rocketlit.com/login. We may want to take 5 minutes and do this over the phone in case there are any hiccups with matching clever teacher and student numbers.
