ClassTag Connect Districts and Schools can manually upload SIS files to ClassTag using a OneRoster-compatible format.

You will need the following files to complete this process:

1. Prepare OneRoster files

If you upload data at a school level for just one school, your files need to include data for one school.

If you're trying to roster multiple schools from a district level, your files should include School IDs that will need to be added on ClassTag for school matching.

2. Update existing ClassTag schools and classrooms

Updating schools includes adding School IDs on ClassTag. Adding School IDs is only required for the district-level roster uploading. For the school-level sync, adding a School ID is optional. Please follow the steps here if you are manually uploading District-level files.

Updating classrooms may include adding IDs to classrooms, or just archiving them. Please refer to this article for the steps on how to review and update existing ClassTag classrooms.

3. Self-check

Please read this article to know what else you have to consider when uploading OneRoster files manually. This will help prevent issues in the future when you are ready to upload new and updated files.

4. Upload the OneRoster files

NOTES:

  • It is recommended that you upload the files as a Dry Run first before actually uploading them to make changes and updates to your District or School.

  • Before you upload the OneRoster users.csv file for the first time, we recommend archiving all existing students. After you upload new students, it will be possible to merge them with the existing ones. Please refer to step 6 of this guide to learn more about it.

District Level Upload

a. Go to the District page and then click Settings from the ellipses on the header.

b. Click SIS Rostering.

c. Upload users.csv, classes.csv, enrollments.csv, guardians.csv, and student_attributes.csv files.


School Level Upload

a. Go to the School page and click Settings from the ellipses on the header.

b. Click SIS Rostering.

c. Upload users.csv, classes.csv, enrollments.csv, guardians.csv, and student_attributes.csv files.

5. Check the upload results

  • You will find the results of the uploaded files right at the bottom of the Manual SIS Uploaders page.

  • Click the arrow to download the results. Make sure everything shows SUCCESS.

  • If you see any errors, please contact support@classtag.com and we'll be happy to assist you in correcting them.

6. Merge duplicated students

If you choose not to archive all students before the sync, there will most likely be duplicates. To merge them, please follow the steps in this article.

You are all set! Please do not hesitate to reach out to our Support Team at support@classtag.com if you experience any issues with these steps.
