District Security Administrator (DSA) Role
DPI WISEsecure Role Admin: District Security Administrator (DSA)
This role is assigned to at least one person in your district (generally the District Administrator) though it is a best practice to have at least one staff member assigned as a delegate DSA . This role allows the DSA to assign Application Administrators who are then in charge of assigning and managing user roles within the specific applications.
The DSA receives Application Administrator and Application User access to all current DPI applications.
Application Administrator Roles
- WISEid Role Admin: WISEid
- WISEdata_PT Role Admin: WISEdata Portal
- WISEstaff Role Admin: WISEstaff
- WISEgrantsRoleAdmin: WISEgrants
- WISEdash Role Admin: WISEdash
These roles allow you to assign Application User roles to an application. Having this role does NOT allow you access to a specific application. You must assign yourself an Application User role in order to log in to and use the application.
User Roles
For a list of user roles that can be assigned in WISEsecure, along with the features each role allows a user to access, refer to the WISEsecure Roles page.
