Search for a class (administrator)
Administrators can search for classes within their organization's Möbius site.
From the class search results, administrators have access to all active and previously deleted classes within their organization.
NOTE: Instructors can also perform a class search to access classes that they're enrolled in as an instructor. Check out Search for a class (instructor).
Class search results can be displayed in two ways:

As an administrator, you can perform the following tasks on any class from your class search results:
- View — Explore all aspects of a class's configuration and content.
- Edit — Make changes to a class (Example — rename a class, change the student enrollment setting, enable anonymous access, etc.).
- Delete — Remove a class from the list of active classes within your organization.
- Restore — Recover a class that was previously deleted.
NOTE: The Master Class can't be deleted.
