For schools using Blackbaud as their SIS, there is an incredible amount of valuable data that you are able to access and utilize (such as advanced lists) to help manage your systems and data syncing. Think about syncing rosters, contact information, enrollments, etc. Oftentimes, you are stuck with this process: Create the list, Run the list, Download the data as a spreadsheet, and then do this all again once there is new data and try to keep all the spreadsheets named correctly. What if you were able to leverage the Blackbaud Sky API and Google Apps Script to break into Blackbaud and automatically pull this data out for you in an automated way! The possibilities are endless! Suddenly, this process went from the tedious task of constantly manually exporting outdated data to automatically pulling up-to-date data all the time. Take some time with Nick to learn how to set this up for your school and start exporting automatically and not manually.
