To generate a view of the XML for a specific SIF object or record:

  1. Select the School Year. This defaults to the latest available year. 
  2. Select the Zone. Only zones configured for the selected school year are available for selection.
  3. Select an Agent
  4. Select the SIF Object. The list of available objects depends on the zone and agent selected as well as how Data Access Rights are configured in your instance of Infinite Campus. 
  5. If a person-related SIF Object is selected, you must enter the PersonID of the person you wish to view or the RefId of the record you wish to view. 
  6. If a non-person related SIF Object is selected, you must enter the RefId of the record you wish to view.
  7. Once the RefId or PersonID (depending on object) is entered, click the Generate SIF Data button. The XML for the object/record will appear below.
