User Flag Importer
What does it do?
The User Flag Importer scheduled task will scan a directory for CSV Files (Comma Separated Values) and import the data inside of them into Student User Flag fields.
Expected File Format
- The file must be a CSV (Comma Separated Values) file.
- The first row must contain headers. The actual header names are ignored during the processing of the file.
- The first column must be the student id.
In this example; each row contains one student id, a user flag code and value to update. The user flag code MATH must exist in the Setup -> Districts -> User Flags Codes screen or it will not be imported. Y values will add the flags to the students while N will remove them
Example File 1
STUDENT_ID, USER_FLAG_CODE, USER_FLAG_VALUE
1234, MATH, Y
1235, STSANDY, N
1236, VERBAL, N
This will not affect files under doc management
Configuration Options:
Path on server to scan for files to import
The task will scan this directory for all files. For every file it finds; it will try to import it.
Delete File After Import
If this option is enabled; the file will be deleted from the directory after it has been processed.
If the file is not deleted; it will be processed over and over again until someone manually removes the file from that directory.
