The Administration area

Permissions required: Administrator

The Administration area is where system administrators manage their organization's Digication system. Everything you administer is in one place, under a single navigation menu, with list pages you can search, filter, and export.

Navigating the Administration area

The navigation menu lists the areas available to you:

  • Users: the user list, and adding or editing users. See Manage users.
  • Administrator Groups: administrator groups and the permissions each one grants. See Manage Administrator Groups and permissions.
  • User Groups: create user groups and manage their members.
  • Notifications: create and manage system notifications.
  • Works: works in the system, organized into Created, Classic, Featured, Homepage, Categories, and Templates.
  • Courses: courses and groups. See Manage courses.
  • Courses (Classic): Classic courses.
  • Grade Settings: configure grade settings.
  • Outcome & Rubrics: Outcome Collections and Outcomes.
  • Import: import logs, CSV upload, and import keys.
  • AI: AI settings, and AI usage for your system.
  • Export: submission exports and export logs.
  • System Settings: review and edit system-wide settings.

What you see depends on your system and on the permissions your administrator groups grant, so your menu may not list every area above.

Finding your way around a list page

The larger areas, such as Users, Works, Courses, and Work Templates, present their records as a list. Where a list page offers them, you will find these controls above the table:

  • Columns: choose which columns are shown.
  • Filters: narrow the list to records matching the conditions you set.
  • Search: find records by keyword.
  • Export CSV: download the list as a CSV file.
