This article describes the steps to configure Ed-Fi in Indiana for the 2026-2027 school year.
Configuring Ed-Fi for the 2026-2027 school year
Step 1. Update to the most recent version of Infinite Campus
To have the schema and logic in place, you must update to the most recent version of Campus. Failure to do this will result in an inability to properly report data for the new school year.
Step 2. Create a new Ed-Fi Configuration
The image below shows the proper field entries for the Connection Configuration.
Ed-Fi Connection Detail
Create a new Ed-Fi configuration for the next school year
- Click the New button. The Connection Detail editor displays.
- Select the Connection Type of State.
- Enter a Connection Name of 26-27 EdFi Configuration or something similar.
- Select the School Year of 2026-27. This requires the 2026-27 School Year to be created.
- Enter the following values:
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Ed-Fi Connection Type | State |
| O-Auth URL | https://dataexchange.doe.in.gov/2027 |
| API URL | https://dataexchange.doe.in.gov/2027 |
| Post-Amble | /data/v3 |
| ID Post-Amble | /IDOEIdentity/v2/idoe |
| Timeout in Seconds | This field defaults to 60 seconds and determines (in seconds) the time allowed to pass before the connection between Campus and Ed-Fi is considered timed out, and Ed-Fi events are not processed. These Ed-Fi events are then reprocessed the next time a Quartz job runs. |
| Connection Credentials | |
| Add Multiple Credentials | Turn on this feature if multiple districts use the same Infinite Campus instance to create multiple connections to the state ODS within the same school year. Users must enter a Credential Name, Client Key, and Client Secret for each credential. For data to be reported correctly, sites with multiple districts must populate the District Number field. Users must also select the School(s) using each credential.  |
| Client Key | The state provides the Client Key. |
| Client Secret | The state provides the Client Secret. |
| Test Connection | Click the Test Connection button to ensure that configuration values are correct and that a connection to Ed-Fi has been established. This test should be done before selecting the Save option and creating the new connection. Auto-mapping will NOT work if the initial connection is not properly configured. |
| If desired, a certificate can be imported for the Ed-Fi configuration. For more information, please see the 'Import Certificates' section of the Ed-Fi Configuration article. | |
6. Click the Save button.
7. Click the Test Connection button to ensure the configuration values are correct and that a connection to Ed-Fi was made. A "Connection is Valid" message displays when the connection is successful.
Step 3. Review the Ed-Fi Setup Checklist to ensure items are complete
Review and/or update data based on the list below to ensure data is set up properly throughout Campus.
Once complete, proceed to Step 4.
Step 4. Perform a resync for the new scope year
Now that the 2026-2027 school year's Ed-Fi configuration is in place and data has been properly reviewed, the Resync tool can resync Ed-Fi data.
Resync
- Select the 2026-2027 Configuration option from the Ed-Fi Configuration dropdown.
- All schools, Person IDs, Course IDs, and Course Section IDs must be resynced for the next year. To do so, mark the All Schools, All People, All Courses, and All Sections checkboxes.
- Mark the Select Dependencies checkbox to ensure related data is sent properly. Review the Recommended Resync Order for guidance on when to sync each resource. The options in the Ed-Fi Resource Preferences tool determine which options are available for selection here.
- Mark the checkbox next to each data set to be resynced, enter the appropriate dates, and select the desired resource(s).
- Note: For the first resync for 2026-2027, it is recommended that you enable one resource at a time. This enhances performance during massive data resyncs and allows you to address specific errors on a per-resource basis. After the first resync, all resources can be left on.
- Select the Start Resync button.
- If the resync is successful, data will flow properly from Campus to Ed-Fi. The Ed-Fi Error Log shows any errors that occur. See the Indiana Ed-Fi Errors and Resolutions article for additional information.
Recommended resync order for Indiana Ed-Fi resources
The table below outlines the recommended resync order for Indiana Ed-Fi resources (Suite v7.3, Data Standard v5.2).
Step 6. Update Ed-Fi attendance resync scheduled task
The Ed-Fi Attendance Resync scheduled task must be updated each year. Please refer to the Indiana Ed-Fi Scheduled Tasks article for more information.
Beginning of the new school year
Please see the Beginning of School Year Process article for a general (not Ed-Fi specific) checklist of activities that should be performed within Infinite Campus at the beginning of a new school year.
