Classroom is releasing new API features into public preview through the Workspace Developer Preview Program. To participate, complete the steps described in our Classroom API Roadmap. Subscribe to Classroom API Developer Preview to stay informed about future previews.
As mentioned previously, Chrome is phasing out third-party (3P) cookies, starting with 1% of users on January 1, 2024. We've sent guidance to all add-ons partners on what actions to take. Please reach out to your Google contact if you have questions.
Chrome has shared new information on a deprecation trial. Plan to apply for the trial this week if you have not already migrated to SAA or a similar solution that allows your add-on to function without 3P cookies. You can reference this issue in your application.
The Classroom add-ons "Posts" resource is being removed. Instead, new functionality makes it easier for add-on developers to interact with items in Classroom by improving compatibility with other API features. You can now know whether the add-on is attached to an Announcement, CourseWork assignment, or CourseWorkMaterial. You can also access the underlying item, which was hidden by the previous post endpoints. This lets you take advantage of core Classroom API features such as subscribing to change notifications. See the Classroom add-ons Posts migration guide for more information.
Rubrics CRUD functionality is now available for public preview. This new feature allows developers to manage Classroom Rubrics on behalf of teachers. Join the Workspace Developer Preview Program to access this preview feature.
