These setup instructions apply to schools using Orah for taking attendance.
Overview
Orah connects directly to TASS APIs to sync multiple data types.
This is a read-only integration but there are options available to export attendance records from Orah to TASS as you need to.
What data can you sync?
Orah syncs all the necessary data to view and manage staff and student timetables and take attendance in Orah:
Student information: basic data such as name, student ID, email, phone etc
Contacts: parent, family and other contacts including relationship, phone, email etc
Houses: house name
Staff: email, name etc
Groups: academic & non-academic groups
Prerequisites
The required API credentials need to be setup in TASS before configuration in Orah. See TASS API Setup in TASS.web
The Orah user configuring the integration must have administrator access to the Orah instance.
Enabling the integration
Via the Orah App Directory, select the "TASS" option from the list of available integration options.
To access the setup screen, click the "Connect to Orah" button in the top right of the page. This will open the integration details screen where you can enter your API credentials.
For day school attendance, select the 'Student Details API' rather than the 'Boarding API' as the base API.
Note that both the Student Details API and the LMS API need to be configured.
Once applied, click enable integration and follow the on-screen instructions to configure each data element.
