Tool Search: Electronic Release Setup
Districts can establish connections for the electronic release of student transcripts through an eTranscript vendor if their vendor of choice uses an electronic release API. The district's system administrator must request this information from your eTranscript vendor. Infinite Campus does not provide this information to districts.
Establishing a vendor configuration is Step 4 in the eTranscript Workflow.
