Possible problems with periodic sync aproach?
- Feb 07, 2018
Thanks for the quick answer. I know that the sections stay intact but what about the students if in the new CSV-files there is no mention of the section listed in previous CSV-files. Here is the scenario:
Sync 1 with CSV files batch 1: Section A (SIS ID 11111) with students
Sync 2 with CSV files batch 2 (same sync profile as Sync 1): Section B (SIS ID 2222) with students . In the batch 2 there is no mention of Section A in the section CSV file nor the student enrollment or teacher roster CSV files!
What will happen to Section A after Sync 2 is run?
- Section A will be gone and students too (I beleive this will not be the case)
- Section A will be there but with no students
- Section A will be there with the students
So, I want to find out how does the comparison actually work between different CSV-files :)
Hi!
"When you archive a section (it is not included anymore in the SDS data)"
That depends how you define your query.
"Group and the attached Team in the cloud will remain at the state, where they are left at that point."
Thats interesting. If I understand you correctly, you mean that also members will remain in those groups?
"SDS will not delete Groups/Teams."
No it don't.

Hi.
I don't understand your first point, of course depends on query, but as stated, if course/class data is not included anymore, the state will be left were it was when last synced.
"Group and the attached Team in the cloud will remain at the state, where they are left at that point."
Thats interesting. If I understand you correctly, you mean that also members will remain in those groups?
Yes.

Hi!
I mean, that students and teacher are removed from group/Teams.
Group/Team are not deleted and data is left intact, you propably mean that.
The origal questions was "Will the students and teachers from the classes (sections) of previous periods stay unchanged so that students are not removes from previous courses (sections) etc.?"
