My Profile
The My Profile screen is a useful way to troubleshoot issues in Ilios. Any Ilios user can access this information by clicking as shown below. This is on the Dashboard - upper right portion of the screen.
In this case, "Nicholas Ann Gutierrez" is the logged-in user, and also the user whose Profile will be displayed. This is also a good example of a student's view into the Ilios system with a populated populated Week at a Glance (WaaG) view.
My Profile (details)
After clicking My Profile, as shown above, the details regarding your logged-in account are displayed as shown below.
This screen is informational only - except for the API Token Management, which is covered below. Nicholas has been assigned the "Adminstrator" role in School of Medicine. We can also see that Nicholas A. Nicholas is not a Student and is not assigned to any Cohort or Learner Group. Any Ilios user can be assigned any permission within any of their assigned schools. They can only have one primary school but this does not prevent assignment of any role in their secondary schools.
Display Fields
Student - simply indicates whether this user has been attached to any learning activity in Ilios ever
Former Student - indicates when the logged in user is (was) a Student who has graduated. This information can be obtained via a nightly synchronization job with your directory server.
Account Enabled - read-only display of the status of the logged-in user's account (will always be "Yes" in this context) - modified in the Admin Console
Exclude From Sync - selected when this user is to be considered an exception regarding the synchronization job. If this is the case, Ilios retains its data and overwrite attempts are not performed based on data coming from the directory server.
Performs Non-Learner Functions - indicates if this user has been attached to any learning activity ever as a "non-learner", typically as an Instructor, Administrator, Director, or Student Advisor
Learner - indicates anyone who has ever been assigned to “learn” in an activity or session - not necessarily an enrolled cohort member derived from the campus system of record or SIS (Student Information System)
Root - indicates if this user has
rootlevel permissions (the highest) for the Ilios system at this School's implementation.
To the right of these fields are three fields identifying this user's "Primary School", "Primary Cohort", and "Secondary Cohorts".
