# API Integration: Install Munetrix PowerSchool Plugin

## Provides step-by-step guidance to install the Munetrix PowerSchool plugin to share student, teacher and roster data with Munetrix.

### Overview

The Munetrix Plugin for PowerSchool, once installed, will allow Munetrix to access PowerSchool data on demand.  This allows Munetrix to provide data to our customers that is updated daily without the hassle of setting up SFTP drops or manual exports.  The Plugin also pulls all data required for all Munetrix products.

The plug-in consists of a zip file storing one primary XML file and a supporting folder of additional XML files.  The primary XML file defines all of our data access requests as well as defining the plug-in name and version amongst other similar details.  Additional XML files are stored in a folder named queries\_root.  Each XML file in this folder defines the SQL PowerQuery that will be executed when we access PowerSchool data.   

The zip file containing the plug-in will be provided prior to installation.  The file does not need to be unzipped or otherwise altered in any way prior to installation. 

 

### Installing the Zip File

Once the zip file has been received follow the below steps to install it on the PowerSchool server: 

*Note:  There may be some slight differences between your version of PowerSchool and the images shown in the provided examples.* 

- From the PowerSchool homepage select System Management \> Server \> Plugin Configuration

### Retrieving Credentials

Munetrix requires three pieces of information from the district to access data via the newly installed plugin.   

- The PowerSchool URL for the customer
- Client ID
- Secret

 

The PowerSchool URL for the customer can be seen in the web address bar of your browser when logged into PowerSchool.  It usually takes a form like - **https://\<district name\>.powerschool.com** 

- From the list of Installed Plugins in the Plugin Configuration page **select the newly installed plugin**.  This will open the Plugin Setup page.

- From the Plugin Setup page select **Data Provider Configuration**.
