Here, administrators can create a multi-level organizational structure easily. Administrators can choose whether to display contact numbers in the organization structure or not based on privacy.

Teachers and students can communicate in a classroom group. Classroom Groups have many features. You can quickly view the teacher’s messages when there are too many unread messages. Then, store and view the files and messages in the “Class Drive” for an unlimited period.

First, open the “School Contacts” section in DingTalk, click "Settings," and select "Create Automatically" on the Classroom Group. Second, specify Class Owners for each class. The corresponding Classroom Groups will be automatically created. Lastly, on the “School Contacts page,” use "Add Manually" or "Import from Excel" to add the students.

If you have too many messages, use the shortcuts on the top of the DingTalk homepage to quickly check all of the messages that have mentioned you or come from VIPs, or view them later. With DingTalk’s intelligent streamline mode, messages will be delivered to customized categories, and chats without updates will be compressed into sub-folders.DingTalk guarantees information security.
