Many schools and districts use filters to keep students from accessing some websites. If your students are having trouble accessing Writable, your school may have web filters in place, and certain URLs that Writable requires to function are being blocked.
Please ask your IT department to clear the following domains through network filters and proxies:
writable.com
app.writable.com
static.writable.com
chat.writable.com
chat-ws.writable.com
chat-static.writable.com
cf-pdfs.writable.com
cf-images.writable.com
cf-shared.writable.com
fs.writable.com
app.getwritable.com
fonts.googleapis.com
fonts.gstatic.com
writable-images.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com
writable-pdfs.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com
accounts.google.com
apis.google.com
docs.google.com
ajax.aspnetcdn.com
cdnjs.cloudflare.com
checkout.stripe.com
rtg.prowritingaid.com
firehose.us-west-2.amazon.com
The following URLs are optional but will help you access different tools within the app:
api-iam.intercom.io
intercom.help
goo.gl
classroom.google.com
bam.nr-data.net
js-agent.newrelic.com
writable.turnitin.com

❗ Note: Some assignments include YouTube videos. Permitting YouTube is required in order for students to view the YouTube videos in these assignments.
If your school or district IT person has questions about why any of these are required or would like more information about how they're used, please have them email us at support@writable.com.
