CCGI - API
It would be great if there was an API to CCGI. They had mentioned one and when we ask about it they said they are waiting on Aeries to reach out and create a timeline. Can an API be done? Is it in the plans?
Hello, we wanted to let you know that we are evaluating whether an API is needed for the CCGI extracts. Automated scheduling and SFTP delivery of extract files to CCGI is planned for the 3/31 release, meeting CCGI’s requirement for an automated file transfer process.
CCGI has also confirmed that an API will not address real‑time data needs, since the data would still be extracted to flat files and processed the same way by CCGI. The API was considered primarily to make it easier for districts to submit data, not for real‑time ingestion.
Instead, we will first focus on supporting term mapping by school and school year, along with adding optional fields to the extract.
