Infinite Campus API Sync

For Studio and IDHub, RapidIdentity pulls data from Infinite Campus via the OneRoster Provisioning API, which is free for districts.

Infinite Campus API Sync Details:

• Runs by querying the OneRoster API Syncs all students who are designated as "active today" (activeToday = 1)
• Syncs all active staff members (employment.active = 1)
• Supports co-teachers for sections (sectionInfo_teacherPersonID, sectionInfo_teacher2PersonID, etc)
• Students and teachers need Infinite Campus Portal accounts in order to sync to RapidIdentity (see below)
• RapidIdentity only has access to OneRoster compatible fields made available by Infinite Campus.
• The available fields can be found here.

Requirement: User (Portal) Accounts

In order for a person to be accessible in the Infinite Campus OneRoster API (and thus synced to RI) the person needs a User (Portal) account in Infinite Campus.

For documentation on creating user accounts, please review this documentation. To create user accounts in bulk, please review this documentation.

To verify if a person has a user account, search for the user in Infinite Campus. If the person has a username, they have a user account. In the example below, "Amelkin, Federique" has a user account but "Freda, Irene" does not. As a result, "Freda, Irene" will not be accessible to Clever via the Infinite Campus OneRoster API. To add a user for a person, click Add User.
