Review the school changelog for recent updates

New

We've added two new endpoints, GET Academics sections for student (BETA) and GET Calendar for User (BETA). These endpoints are currently in BETA and are apt to change during this development phase.

The GET Academics sections for student (BETA) endpoint returns an array of section objects associated with the required student_id parameter. Each section object contains identifiers such as the section_id and section_identifier, as well as the cumulative_grade for the section if the user group requesting the endpoint has authorization to view grades. The endpoint requires that the requesting user have an id that matches the student_id and either a Parent or Student role.

The GET Calendar for User (BETA) endpoint returns an array of event objects. The endpoint has two optional parameters: start_date and end_date. start_date and end_date when provided, exclude events outside of the date range from the response. The endpoint requires the requesting user have either a Student, Parent, or Teacher role. If the requesting user group does not have permission to view an event type, then those unauthorized event types are not included in the response.
