XporterOnDemand:
Installing for Bromcom

Introduction

XporterOnDemand is a service that securely provides school data from your MIS to software partners to automatically populate their solutions with your data.

It puts you in control of your data and allows you to see exactly what information your software providers are requesting you to share with them.

Groupcall has no access to your data and all personal and potentially sensitive data is encrypted to industry standards at all times.

The Xporter tool is the part that talks to your MIS to collect that data before delivering it to your software providers.

    Getting your MIS Ready for Xporter

    To connect to your MIS, Xporter usually needs to be provided with a user account with certain permissions or some “API” details.

    “API” details usually consist of a URL (website address) and a username and password. Sometimes it might be an “API Key” instead (a long list of letters and numbers).

    Before you install Xporter, it is a good idea to have these details ready to go so you can finish the installation all in one go. Sometimes you may have to request these details from your MIS provider.

    Installing the XporterOnDemand Client

    You will be provided a link to download the installer once you finish your registration. However, if you have closed this window or moved to another machine without getting the setup file, you can visit:
