Client Secret
-
App Name: App name is either after v1p1, or after appName= in the Token URL - Eg.https://campus.pueblocityschools.us/campus/api/oneroster/v1p1/minga - App name would be 'minga'

Once you've completed the form click Test Connection / URL to ensure Minga is able to connect to your SIS and exchange information.
Sync Settings in Minga
You can enable student, teacher, staff and admin rostering separately as well as include primary parent contact info depending on what data you want to synchronize in Minga.
Minga can automatically update information for existing users (for example if a student's name was changed in the SIS then their name would be automatically updated in Minga). By default Minga will Skip users that are already setup in Minga. To automatically update their information toggle on Auto update.
Minga can also automatically Archive (delete) users that are no longer included in the rostering data (for example when a student leaves the school and is removed from the Student Information System). To automatically remove students and staff that are no longer part of the school roster, toggle on Archive.
Please note*: Minga recommends having the Auto update and Archive settings toggled off at first until you have verified your rostering is syncing correctly in your Minga. Then toggle them on accordingly to ensure up-to-date rostering.
Get notified of Roster Sync Results
Owners can set up an email notification with all of the information from the daily roster sync. This will allow technical owners to get assurance that the sync is working or to troubleshoot immediately if any issues are detected.
Enable Automatic Rostering
Once you have completed configuration, toggle on Enable Automatic Rostering and then press Save. Rostering will now start automatically every evening.
