Uploading Your SIS Data (Manual Upload)

The File Uploader allows you to manually import Student Information System (SIS) data (for example, from SAM7 or PowerSchool) into Equity Analytics. This method is ideal for one-off updates, quick changes, or when your API connection is not yet set up.

Manual uploads do not process automatically. After uploading, you must email support@equityanalyticsms.com to request that your data be processed.

For details on the exact file structure required, see the SIS Data Format page.


Accessing the File Uploader

You can access the File Uploader from anywhere in Equity Analytics by using the User Menu:

  1. Click the File Upload icon in the navbar.
  2. Select Student Information System from the dropdown menu.
