Hybrid Integration (SSO + Manual Enrollment Management)
What It Is
Subject connects with your SSO provider (including Clever or ClassLink) for authentication, while maintaining manual enrollment management in the platform.
How It Works
Users: Automatically sync from SSO provider
Login: Students/staff use SSO credentials via dedicated login link
Enrollments: Staff manually add students to courses in Subject
Passwords: Managed by district SSO system
