Supported Functionality
Edlink makes it easy to connect to PowerSchool and sync data between PowerSchool and other systems by providing an Edlink plugin for PowerSchool.
Single Sign-On (SSO)
Edlink does not support SSO with powerschool at this time, but Edlink can facilitate SSO via a secondary source with matching email addresses.
Rostering
Edlink synchronizes core rostering data from PowerSchool. There are many configurable options which control how we consume rostering data from PowerSchool, which can be adjusted depending on the needs of the school district.
Extended Rostering
For more complex use cases, Edlink supports extended rostering, which includes data models like attendance, incidents, and many others.
See below for the full list of supported models.
Managing Coursework and Grades
Edlink enables developers to list and create assignments, categories, and grades in PowerSchool.
Special Features
- Realtime Attendance Sync: We have the ability to sync PowerSchool attendance data every 15 minutes, which essentially provides near real-time attendance data for students in the classroom.
