After you've connected your LMS to Edlink your data will show up within 24-hours. Since Extempore primarily works with World Language and/or ESL departments we will need a list that includes the following to filter the data prior to syncing.

What Extempore needs from you on a Google Sheet:

  • Column 1 Header: LMS/SIS Provider

    • LMS/SIS ID

  • Column 2 Header: Teacher Email

    • Teacher emails

What is an LMS/SIS ID?

An LMS ID is a unique identifier assigned to an entity (such as a user, course, or school) within a Learning Management System (LMS). This ID is used to track and manage data within the LMS, enabling seamless integration and data sharing across other connected platforms, like Edlink or ClassLink.

For example, each course or user (like a teacher or student) in an LMS will have a specific LMS ID that helps administrators and integrated systems keep records organized, sync data accurately, and avoid confusion, especially when managing large datasets across multiple schools or districts.

To identify the correct ID among the various district codes (LMS course ID, course ID, class ID, class name, integration ID, account ID, etc.), look for a unique identifier that applies specifically to each individual class. This ID should be distinct across your data and should not appear more than once in the dataset.

Please note that ID numbers can vary in format across different LMS and SIS providers.

[Your LMS] ID

Teacher Email

18170

18192

Once the information above is provided your last step is to add Extempore as a Connected LTI App in your LMS where teachers/students will SSO.

It is important that Extempore opens in a new window to ensure all of our features work.


Please review our pre-onboarding diagram checklist to ensure your district is ready to schedule with our team.
