How to restrict AutoProctor to only some users
Students take the AutoProctor test via a link. Anyone who has access to the link can take the test. But, sometimes, you may want to restrict AutoProctor to only a few students. How can we achieve that?
The easiest way would be to ensure that the test link isn't available to all users. If there are 20 students in your class, and you want only 15 of them to take the test, share the link with only these 15 students.
This may not be enough though and maybe one of these 15 students will share the link with the other 5. In that case, instead of restricting the AutoProctor link, you can restrict the Google Form itself. You can follow the steps outlined here to restrict the form:[ https://www.bettercloud.com/monitor/the-academy/restrict-access-to-google-forms/](https://www.bettercloud.com/monitor/the-academy/restrict-access-to-google-forms/) If the Google Form access is restricted, the student can still open the AutoProctor link but they won't be able to load the Google Form within AutoProctor. So, effectively, they cannot take the test.
