We're working to improve your SIS sync experience
Grade passback beta ready for participants!
Our grade passback using Buzz's SIS Sync (via OneRoster) is ready for beta!
Thanks to all those who signed up for our Grade passback beta! If you're interested, but haven't signed up, there's still time: System administrators can sign up to get ongoing updates about this feature and to have a chance to take part in our beta program.
- You must use the Buzz SIS Sync (via OneRoster).
- If you're not the system administrator in your organization, but want your school to participate, please send this form to your system administrator.
Grade passback participants must configure SIS Sync
Remember that, in order to participate, you must use the Buzz SIS Sync (via OneRoster). If you have signed up to participate, but haven't configured your SIS Sync, that is the first step.
Help us strengthen our SIS sync support!
As part of a focused effort to enhance the way we support your SIS sync integrations, we are looking for your input and experience. If you are a teacher or administrator using Buzz's OneRoster SIS sync integration, please take a moment to complete a three-minute survey.
Updates
In this release, we:
- Added an automatically generating Deep-linking redirect URL field to the Domain settings > Publish Anywhere platform settings.

Fixes
In this release, we also:
- Improved screen reader accessibility labeling of the Notes button in the student app's toolbar.
- Improved the package name validation editor in the 1EdTech package export screen.
- Improved width of the Editor > Add activity dialog for narrow screens.
- Resolved an issue with incorrectly showing a filter-by-group button in the Activity editor for a Choice activity.
