Application Gallery Certification Guide

Application Gallery integrations allow you to incorporate integrations into the School Passport Application Gallery. Application Gallery Сertification determines that an integration provided through Application Gallery meets quality and security standards. After obtaining this certificate, your integration will be marked with a special badge in the Application Gallery. This allows district admins to ensure that it meets all quality standards.

Overview

Once you have developed your integration in the School Passport Sandbox, you may request its certification. Your integration will be verified by the GG4L Engineering Team in accordance with Certification requirements. The review process typically takes about 5 business days. Once the review is complete, you will receive an email containing your certification results and recommended next steps. If necessary, we can also schedule a call to discuss the integration in more detail.
