404 When adding TA #2524

Open mpapka opened 4 years ago

mpapka commented 4 years ago

I'm not sure it is a bug, but when adding TA, I add them to the organization and it works fine. When they use the link provided by GitHub Classroom to join the classroom, sometimes it gets to login, sometimes past login to verify account, but it never adds TA to classroom. Most of the time it gives a 404 message. The TA is a member (not owner) of the organization.

@mpapka TAs need to be added as owners of the organization in order to have admin access to the organization's classroom. You can find instructions for adding TAs by going to your classroom and clicking on the TAs and Admins tab.

I've been having the same issue. Just made TAs owner and trying the link again, but they were getting a 404.

@wahalulu If the TA is an owner of the organization, they should be able to access the Classroom. If you're still having issues, could you pass along the org name and TA GitHub handle so that I can dig into it?
