Troubleshooting

If you're having trouble accessing the Google Templates on ManageBac+, please first log in to your Google account in the browser on the device that you are using. When refreshing the Task page on ManageBac+, you should then be able to access the Google Templates.

If you are using the ManageBac+ app, please ensure you are logged in to the GDrive app with the same account e-mail address as your ManageBac+ e-mail address.
