The Kognity and Schoology integration via Edlink ensures that any changes in your data throughout the year are automatically reflected in our platform, so you never have to worry about updating rosters.

Please note: Attempting to make any manual changes during an integration can result in errors. For example, If your school has active subscriptions and they suddenly expire, it’s likely because the classes mapped to Kognity were moved, updated, or changed on your school's end. In such cases, you’ll need to re-share the classes with us or undo any changes made.
