Classes can be disconnected directly on the product details page in EasyBridge. Disconnecting a class will remove Realize assignments for students synced with their Google Classroom classes.

1. Locate the connected classes using the Search feature, filtering by Roster Source = Auto Rostered, and check the box to Only Show Linked Google Classes.
2. Click the class name for the class you would like to disconnect.
3. Scroll to find the row for the class to disconnect.
4. Click Disconnect. A box will display with details related to the connected classes.
5. Verify the information is correct and confirm the disconnect by checking the boxes.
6. Click Confirm.

Classes that have multiple teachers associated can be disconnected by any of the teachers. Disconnecting a class will unlink the class for all teachers. It is recommended you verify with all teachers associated before disconnecting a class.

Auto-rostered districts (EasyBridge Plus) also using Google Classroom can link student district accounts with their corresponding Google Classroom accounts so that students can seamlessly complete Realize assignments while only logging into their Google accounts. Assignments are synced with the students' accounts when the they link their Google Classroom class with their Realize class. However, if students are added to a Google Classroom class after a class is linked, students must be added to the existing assignments in Realize in order to see their assignments in Google Classroom.

Administrators can review student account linking in EasyBridge and make any necessary updates. Administrators can also Review Mapping directly on the class details page.

1. Filter and locate class on the Classes page.
2. Click the class name to be taken to the class details page.
3. Scroll to see a list of students enrolled in the class. Students who have their district accounts mapped to their Google accounts (or LTI-A) will have a link under the column Action.
4. Click Review Mapping to see how the student account is linked.

If the account should be unmapped for any reason, read and acknowledge the impacts of unmapping and click Remove Mapping. Cancel to close out of the mapping.

If mapping is removed from a student linked to a Google Classroom class, and that student is the last remaining student linked to that class, assignments are deleted from the Google Classroom class. When students link back to that Realize class from Google, assignments are re-synced from Realize.

Co-teachers in auto-rostered districts that also use Google Classroom with Realize should only be added to classes using the following criteria:

Linked Classes: When classes are linked, a co-teacher must be included in the nightly ingestion files and then link their Google account to their Realize account.

Imported Classes: A co-teacher must have a Realize account and must be part of the Google class. They must then link their Google account in Realize.

** Co-teachers must be added prior to linking or importing Google Classes.
