Wayground offers Single Sign-On (SSO) authentication via Clever, which enables students and teachers to access Wayground using their Clever login credentials. It offers a secure way to log into Wayground without remembering multiple IDs and passwords.
If you are a district administrator, you can integrate Clever SSO for all the Wayground users in your district in one go. To do this, you must first add the Wayground SSO application from your Clever account. This will send a request to Wayground, which will then be approved.
Note: If you are a teacher whose school is not associated with a particular district on Wayground, you can integrate Clever SSO for yourself and your students without the help of a district administrator. To learn how to do this, refer to our article on Integrating Clever SSO as a Teacher via the Clever Library.
Adding the Wayground SSO Application
- Visit www.clever.com and select ‘District admin’ from the log-in drop-down menu
- Enter the username and password associated with your Clever district admin account and click on ‘Log in’
- Click on ‘Add Applications’ on your dashboard
- Search for ‘Wayground’ in the search bar
- Navigate to the ‘Wayground SSO’ option and click on ‘Add’
- Click on ‘Save and continue’
- Set the launch date, i.e., the date from which you want Wayground to appear on your teachers’ and students’ portals
- Set your access permissions as required and click on ‘Save and continue’
Completing these steps will send a request to Wayground. You will be notified via email/ on your dashboard once the request has been approved. You can then manage user access to Wayground by following these steps:
- Click on ‘Applications’ from the left navigation on your Clever Portal

Teachers and students in your district will now be able to access Wayground via their Clever portals starting from the launch date you set. Click on ‘Finish’ to complete the process.
Once the Wayground app is available on Clever portals, there is one final step to be completed by the teachers and students in your district before they can start logging in with Clever SSO.
