Virtual Attendance - Get a List

Boyd Reilly · November 2020

I have a Attending Class Virtually option to our attendance where the type is Virtual. Great for the teachers to mark students that way.

However, I have no way I know of to get a list of those students. I can easily get a list of absent students. But, there is no way I know of to get a list of student who are in attendance and those who are attending virtually.

I talked to BB about it and they seem aware of it. I need a solution ASAP.

Any ideas or am I just waiting for BB on this one?

Thanks.

I use the list described blow. It may be what you're looking for - or at least get you a little closer.

Academics > Attendance > Class Attendance List

Based on my experimenting in Lists, Advanced Lists, and data available through the API, I think that "Present" (and the "Attended Class" notation on the student's schedule) is determined by exclusion. If the student was not marked absent, tardy, or present virtually, and some attendance was taken for the class meeting, then the student is assumed to have been present.

Thanks. Works great.

I wonder why I didn't see that earlier.

Thanks.

Hi Boyd Reilly‍

I don't want to assume Brian answered your initial question, but it seems like it from your post thanking him.

If your question was answered, would you pretty please with sugar on top change the status of this question to answered? This way others can see the question was answered and will know it is worth their while to scroll through.

If your question wasn't exactly answered, then just leave the status as is...

Thank you for being such an engaged BB Community member,
