title: Edlink 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.
