New year...new subdomain?

How do you begin a new school year? Do you keep the same domain and edit the title and domain settings to match the year? This I think would be easiest as the admin. wouldn't have to re-enter LTI information, etc. Or should we start a new subdomain for a new year? Would love your thoughts!!

Hello Kim,

I think I will be able to provide more helpful information if you could help me better understand your use case and why a new subdomain for each school year needs to be created. In general, a new subdomain is not needed to be created for each school year.

Typically, a subdomain is a school derived from it's parent domain or school district and doesn't reflect a specific school year in it's title. This can be specially challenging for large school districts to manage changing domain settings every year.

If you want to make edits to reflect a specific year, then I would advise to edit the title of the domain and settings within it as needed to keep the structure of data and user access organized.
