The school name, time zone, and custom URL are set when the myFolio site is set up. Please consult Folio Support (support@foliocollaborative.org) before changing these settings.
The Admin email should be updated as the primary myFolio School Admin changes.
The myFolio Admin can update the school's logo by uploading a properly sized PNG, GIF or JPG file. The logo file should be 400px wide and 75px tall.
School Description and Banner Message

The school description appears on the myFolio Homepage, which is the first page users reach when they sign in. It is typically a version of the school's mission statement but can be any suitable description of the school.
The Banner message is an optional message that will appear at the top of the Folio Dashboard page. It can be used to provide topical information and time sensitive communication to myFolio users.
Resource Usage, Authentication, and Notifications Settings
Resource Usage
Resource usage indicates the total file storage used by the school's myFolio users.
Authentication Settings
For schools that use Google Apps for Education/Work, Folio offers the option to allow users to sign-in using their Google Account Credentials. When this switch is set to "On,” a "Sign in with Google" button will be available on the school's sign-in page.
Notification Settings
myFolio allows admins to customize outgoing email notifications to users. See below for toggle options:
- "Notify New Employees": will send an email to newly created users with a link to the school's sign-in page.
- "Notify New Students" relates to Student Surveys in Folio: will send an email to newly created students with a link to the school's sign-in page. For more information about Student Surveys in Folio, please contact Folio Support (support@foliocollaborative.org) or reach out to your school success representative.
- "Send Milestone Reminders": will send all employees email notifications 14 days and 3 days prior to a milestone that is due. The Folio Admin will also receive an email notification the day after a milestone has passed listing everyone who has not met the milestone.
To save any changes, make sure you click the "Update Organization" button at the bottom of the page.
