Quick Lists are groups of URLs that can be quickly added or removed to your exceptions list. They can be added to block or allow mode scenes. There are three types of quick lists, GoGuardian Quick Lists, Shared Quick Lists, and Custom Quick Lists.
GoGuardian Quick Lists
When using block mode scenes, adding a single URL to your exceptions list may not be enough to allow access to that site. Many websites use a series of redirects and subdomains in order to access their site. Google Docs, for instance, has 21 subdomains and redirects that need to be accounted for in order to access all features in Google Docs. So, GoGuardian put together Quick Lists for commonly used educational websites so that you can quickly add the site to your exceptions list without having to track down the URLs individually.
If you add a URL that matches one of these Quick Lists to your exceptions list, the corresponding Quick List will be automatically added to your exceptions list.
GoGuardian Quicklists are typically used with block mode scenes. Adding the Google Docs Quick List to an allow mode scene will cause all Google Docs services to be blocked.
To add a GoGuardian Quick List to your scene:
- Create or edit a Scene
- In the Add Lists section of the Scene, under GoGuardian quick lists, click on one of the lists
- Click Add Lists at the bottom

To view what sites are on each quick list, click on Create/Edit Lists towards the top of the Lists section, then click on a list under GoGuardian quick lists. This will open up a copy of the GoGuardian Quick List, allowing you to view or edit the full list.
Shared Quick Lists
Shared Quick Lists(also referred to as District Quick Lists) are collections of URLs managed through Org Management by a Super User. These Quick Lists will be accessible to all Teachers within the organization.
