Frequently Asked Questions
Will logging out of ManageBac+ log me out of all my Google apps using the same account?
No - logging out of ManageBac+ will only log you out of ManageBac+. You will remain logged into Google. Therefore we recommend using this service from your personal computer. If using a shared computer, ensure you log out of Google entirely before ending your session
Can users still log in using their old ManageBac+ credentials when logging in with Google is enabled?
Yes, you can choose to log in using your ManageBac+ username and password or with Google.
Does enabling Login with Google create new accounts or change emails of existing accounts on ManageBac+?
No. It allows users whose ManageBac+ ID is associated with Google to login but does not change any existing accounts.
Does the Google account need to be associated with the school or can any user with a Google account log into ManageBac+?
This depends on the "allowed domain" in Google. If left blank, any user with a Google email can log in (as long as they already have a ManageBac+ ID associated with that email). If an allowed domain is specified, only users with emails associated with that Google domain can log in with Google.
