Open Scholiq for the first time

A first look at Scholiq — where the app lives, what the navigation gives you, and how to tell it is wired up to OpenRegister.

Goal​

By the end you will have opened the Scholiq app, recognised the dashboard tiles and the left-hand navigation, and confirmed that the OpenRegister-backed lists (Courses, Learners, Enrolments, …) load.

Prerequisites​

  • A Nextcloud account on an instance where the Scholiq app is installed and enabled.
  • The OpenRegister app installed and enabled — Scholiq stores every course, enrolment, grade, credential and attendance record in OpenRegister, so it is a hard dependency.
  • The Scholiq register and its schemas imported. An admin runs this once from Settings → Registers → Re-import configuration (see Manage Scholiq settings).

Steps​

  1. Open the Nextcloud app menu in the top bar and pick Scholiq. You land on the dashboard.

  2. Read the dashboard tiles — Courses, Cohorts, Learners, Active enrolments, Open attendance flags. On a fresh install they read No items found; they fill in as work moves through the app.

  3. Open the left-hand navigation. The entries map one-to-one onto the things Scholiq tracks: Courses, Enrolments, Learners, Credentials, Curriculum, Grades, Assignments, Assessments, Learning plans, Attendance, Data exchange. Below sit Documentation, Assistant, xAPI statements, AI features, Settings and Features & roadmap.

  4. Click Courses. The list view opens with a Cards / Table toggle, an Add Item button, and the OpenRegister side filters. An empty install shows No items found — expected until someone creates the first course.

Verification​

You are set up correctly when: the Scholiq dashboard renders without an error banner, the left navigation lists the entries above, and clicking through to Courses (or any other list) shows either rows or a clean No items found state — not a load error.
