To connect AssessPrep, submit a request to Faria Support with your ManageBac+ account URL and the year levels you want to use. Support enables the API token in Settings > Integrations > Partners > AssessPrep. Classes, students and teachers then sync from ManageBac+ to AssessPrep every night, and users sign in through the Launchpad.
For admins who want to connect AssessPrep to their ManageBac+ account.
What is AssessPrep?
AssessPrep is a cloud-based platform that helps schools and students prepare for IB eAssessment.
- Test creation: add different types of questions, plus videos, simulations and images.
- Exam delivery: the same test-taking and invigilation experience as IB eAssessment.
- Grading and analytics: assign marks, annotate, give feedback, and see detailed performance by criteria and reports.
If your school is integrated with ManageBac+, your AssessPrep account set-up is automated.
How the integration works
Set-up: uses a Public API token from ManageBac+.
Sync: users, subjects and classes sync from ManageBac+ into AssessPrep. The classes you asked to use AssessPrep for sync along with their students and teachers.
Single sign-on (SSO): teachers and students move between ManageBac+ and AssessPrep through the Launchpad, and switch systems from the top Launchbar.
More points of integration are planned.
Request the integration
-
Submit a request to Faria Support and include:
- Your ManageBac+ account URL (for example, www.faria.ManageBac.com).
- The year levels you want to use AssessPrep for (for example, MYP 3 to 5, DP 1 and 2, or High School grades 9 to 12).
-
Our Support team helps you enable the API token in Settings > Integrations > Partners > AssessPrep on your ManageBac+ account.
Disabling or regenerating the API token breaks the integration between ManageBac+ and AssessPrep.
How syncing works
Classes, students and teachers sync one way, from ManageBac+ to AssessPrep. Make any changes to class rosters in ManageBac+. They sync to AssessPrep at midnight each day.
Access AssessPrep from ManageBac+
Once your ManageBac+ and AssessPrep accounts are activated, teachers and students can open AssessPrep from the Launchpad in ManageBac+. See Accessing AssessPrep with ManageBac+ Single-Sign-On (SSO).
