Create a Shared Data Pool
Learn how to effectively organize data of connected districts.
A Shared Data Pool is a monitoring feature with which you can read all district data that is accessed by your application via API using a single set API credential. A shared pool can contain an unlimited number of districts/schools. Centralizing this data enables seamless tracking of information from various districts within a single location.
You can find a shared data pool on the My Institutional page.
