Adding Users
There are several ways to add users to Manage1to1. Depending on your workflow, users can be added manually, in bulk, or through automated imports.
Manual User Creation
Users can be added manually from two locations in the platform.
Method One: From the Users Menu
Navigate to Users >> Add Users.
This option allows you to add individual users directly from the main Users menu.
Method Two: From the View Users Screen
Navigate to Users >> View Users, then select Add Users.
This method is useful when you are already reviewing or managing existing users and need to add a new one without leaving the page.
Automated Updating
The most efficient way to add or maintain users is through automated imports.
Automated updates use a standardized CSV file and are commonly paired with scheduled exports from your SIS. This approach helps ensure user records remain accurate and up to date with minimal manual effort.
Detailed setup instructions can be found in the Automation & Imports section of the documentation.
Bulk Adding
Bulk user creation is supported using a CSV file. The CSV file template is located in the System Utilities section.
To bulk add student users:
- Navigate to
Settings >> System Utilities - Upload the appropriate CSV file
