OpenAPI Specification

openapi: 3.2.0
info:
  title: Edlink SSO API
  description: The Edlink API provides a unified, normalized interface to school roster and learning data across hundreds of SIS and LMS source systems. The Graph API operates at the institution level using an Integration Access Token to read districts, schools, classes, sections, courses, people, and enrollments that have been shared with an integration. Single Sign-On is provided over OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect, and source/integration metadata plus change events support incremental synchronization. All requests are authenticated with a Bearer token.
