When you receive a "NotAllowedError" or a "NotFoundError", it often refers to a situation with your webcam or microphone.

NotAllowedError

What does it mean?

  • You have the devices connected, but you rejected our authorization request

How can I fix it?

  1. Please visit this page (chrome://settings/content/siteDetails?site=https%3A%2F%2Fschoolhouse.world%2F) and either select "Ask (default)" or "Allow" for Camera and Microphone

  2. Reload the certification page and click on "Turn on mic and webcam"

  • Note: If you select "Ask (default)", you'll need to click on "Allow this time" or "Allow every time" after Step 2

  • Note: If you still run into any issues after completing both steps, please email [email protected] and explain the situation (screenshots are helpful!)

NotFoundError

What does it mean?

  • You do not have all of the devices connected that we’re looking for. Maybe you have the webcam, but not the mic, or vice-versa

How can I fix it?

  • Please email [email protected] — let us know that you're running into the "NotFoundError" and please send screenshots of what you see when you open these two links: chrome://settings/content/microphone and chrome://settings/content/camera

  • From there, an engineer can help you figure out how to fix the error

If you do not have a webcam to complete your certification video, please visit this FAQ article.
