Hi @dfitiskin , thank you for reporting this issue.

Do you know if wizzzjer accepted the invitation ? 🤔 It will return a 404 error if the person did not accept the invitation to the organization.

Hi @dfitiskin ! 👋

You must add them to the Organization as an Owner in order for them to have access.

Classroom is returning a 404 becausewizzzjer is not an owner of the organization. You just have to set the person as owner and it should work :)

[dfitiskin]

But she is only assistant for checking assignments. And she is freelancer. It is bad idea to set her account as owner of organization.

Is classroom only allow adding teachers from Organization Owners list?

Hi @dfitiskin , sorry for the delay.

Is classroom only allow adding teachers from Organization Owners list ?

Yes it is. You can only add administrators in Classroom if they are owners.

This thread is a year old, but if the situation has not changed, it seems like a major flaw in Classroom. I agree with @dfitiskin, student TAs should not need to be org owners just to download and grade student submissions. I'm hopeful, now that a year has passed since this thread, that there is a better solution.

I agree with dfkotz. TAs should not be owners.

Hey all :wave: I'm re-opening this issue for us to address when a bit of engineering bandwidth opens up. We'll post updates here when something changes :)
