Resource Preferences

The Ed-Fi Configuration tool is used to establish Ed-Fi data resources.

The following describes how to enable the Student Section Association resource for Ed-Fi reporting. If the Configure or Edit buttons do not display, then the resource does not need to be mapped and the toggle button can be used to turn the resource on or off.

 If a mapping is changed, a resync must be performed on the resource in order for the new mappings to send correctly.
