For a lot of products, knowing the current location of a particular student is critical to their core experience. We're happy to announce the first of a series of experiments with near-realtime attendance data. For Powerschool SIS integrations, you can now receive period-level attendance data that is refreshed every 15 minutes.
Along with our slew of new models from a few weeks back, we've pushed a major update to our developer documentation. The biggest part of this update was a reorganization of the API Reference structure. Instead of being grouped by user / graph API, models and endpoints are now grouped by functional area.
The last major release this week is a new feature flag that will redirect users back to your application if they encounter an error while trying to sign in.
