ℹ️ By default, student actions do not require verification or approval, but any verified Teacher or Admin in your school can verify actions.

If you turn this feature on, teachers and admins will need to verify every action a student adds.

To turn on approval:

  1. Go to your Admin settings by clicking your profile picture (bottom left).

  2. Under Action Approval, select Approval required.

  3. Once enabled, all student actions will appear as In Review until they are approved by a teacher or admin. After approval, the action will receive a verified label.

Approve a student action

Use these steps when you want to review and approve pending actions:

  1. Go to Students.

  2. Sort students using the filter to show those with unapproved actions.

  3. Select the student whose actions you’d like to review.

  4. Look for actions showing the Approve button. These are the ones still pending.

  5. Click Approve. The action will be approved instantly and moved out of the “in review” state.
