Many SIS Vendors build exports via a Representative, who may request a Template to send to them. Some Student Information Systems send OneRoster files, and this can work, but if they have the ability to create separate custom files this may create more flexibility for you to add fields in the future.
Note: Apptegy has worked with enough SIS Vendors repetitively, it may benefit to also ask to see if your SIS has created default templates for Apptegy Alerts
Types of Fields:
We can accept any information in most formats sent over, in any order as well, however, we do have recommendations on fields that are helpful. If you have additional fields that your SIS is capable of sending, no problem, we can map them out on our end once we received them.
Here are some suggestions of what you could send, although feel free to add other fields as needed:
