Xporter On Demand (XoD) is an API providing JSON or XML outputs against a schools Management Information System (MIS) database, located on premise or in the cloud.
Xporter on Demand (XoD) Core will limit access to basic student and staff data from an Management Information System (MIS), with a lower query limit per 24 hours.
If you require more frequent queries and data such as parental contacts, assessment or attendance, then you will need to opt for XoD Standard or Enhanced.
A full overview of coverage is provided on the XoD web UI and do check with us if in any doubt.
Yes, Xporter on Demand (XoD) features a web UI for running sample queries and is backed by demo databases of available Management Information Systems (MIS).
Note that not all MIS provide integrators with a demo database.
You can utilise webhooks to be notified when schools activate Xporter on Demand (XoD) against your API to help automate backend processes, along with email service notifications.
You can also access logs for troubleshooting and testing.
All relevant data is AES encrypted at rest, while additionally being transmitted over TLS/HTTPS protocols.
Individual school data is also isolated within Xporter on Demand (XoD).
Every partner and school must agree to a data sharing agreement between all parties to ensure adherence to data processing and legislation requirements.
Your partner registration with us includes your data access scope and this is detailed to schools when they consent to share data.
We accompany this information with a link to your DSA and two checkboxes to both agree the DSA and to confirm authority to accept the DSA.
If you later change your data access scope then schools must re-consent to your new scopes.
When a school consents via the Groupcall Management portal we can email your nominated address or call a webhook to notify you.
Pre-written integration code in NuGet and PHP is available, with support for other languages coming soon.
Our technical support team can also offer advice and guidance on your data scope and any issues pursuant to a particular Management Information System (MIS).
Our team has been working with many MIS vendors and supporting integration for over a decade and that valuable insight should help accelerate your R&D.
