How do I access all section types in the School API in addition to Academic sections such as advisory?
When pulling data from Blackbaud I am able to get the Section data if they are the offering type labeled 'academics' from the following GET commands:
The issue is I can not find the sections that are not the offering type of Academics.
We would like to pull section data that includes all types of sections such as Advisory and Athletics. The list of offering types is also attached.
- Student list (single section)
- Section List (single teacher)
- Student list (single section)

My solution for this was to create a Managed List that gave me the information I needed (including the group ID) and then read the list through the Legacy List endpoint.

There is more than one way to get there, but under Core click Analysis and then Manage Lists:

There you can create an Advanced List that can be used with an API endpoint:
After you've created an Advanced List you can hover your mouse over the Run button and in the status bar below in your browser you will something like this:
The number listed with "slid=" is a list that be called via API. It will bring everything in the query over in JSON format. Your call will look something like this:

Thanks.
