Student and Staff Identity Integration in WISEid
Staff and Student Identity Integration allows student information system (SIS)/HR/payroll vendors to integrate with the WISEid application, which assigns a unique ID to a person.
SIS/HR/payroll vendor tools that implement this integration provide a means for their schools and districts to retrieve and review potential student matches and to create WISEids for staff and students through their vendor tool(s). The matches displayed on the vendor tool(s) should be examined before creating a new WISEid.

Using Staff and Student Identity Integration
Staff and Student Identity Integration allows student information system (SIS)/HR/payroll vendor tools to integrate with the WISEid application, which assigns a unique ID to a person. Vendor tools that implement this integration provide a means for their schools and districts to retrieve and review potential student matches and to create WISEids for students and staff through the vendor tool. The matches displayed on the vendor tool should be examined before creating a new WISEid.
If your SIS/HR/payroll vendor tool supports the Staff and Student Identity Integration feature, you can perform several WISEid tasks directly in your vendor tool, including reviewing potential student matches and creating WISEids for students. Refer to your vendor's documentation for instructions on using these features in your vendor tool(s).
IMPORTANT NOTE: Schools and districts must continue to upload student records to WISEid through the Upload Person Data tool at least twice per year: once at the beginning of the school year, and once at the end of the school year. For more information about WISEid uploads, refer to the WISEid/WISEstaff File Uploads Mini Tutorial.
