OneRoster Integration with MagicBox

  • Last updated on April 22, 2021 at 3:48 PM

In the absence of an accurate class roster, digital learning material cannot be not helpful for students and teachers. MagicBox has adopted the OneRoster standard, streamlining the delivery of class rostering in an easy and secure way. Schools can now skip the tedious student account set up process and get right to the important tasks using MagicBox to improve learning outcomes.

Expired and incorrect class rosters are dragging down the learning potential of many online resources in the classroom. In order to resolve this challenge, MagicBox provides the following transfer options:

1. OneRoster CSV - Import/Export through common a CSV template. You can choose this option to upload OneRoster 1.1 CSV files created via your SIS provider.

2. OneRoster API - Import/Export through system to system secure data exchange using REST API. You can choose this option to make a direct connection and sync your school's data directly with your SIS provider through the OneRoster 1.1 API.

3. OneRoster SFTP - Choose this option to make a direct connection to the SFTP and pick the OneRoster 1.1 CSV files from the input folder location.
