"Connectathon" is SIF lingo for live connection tests between SIF Agent developers. This month's tests will be held on Tuesday, May 26th from 12PM to 3PM MST. We'll set up some zones and chatrooms, and connect any SIF agents we have available. At the end we will also have a Q&A session with some of Edustructures SIF agent developers.

The theme for this third connectathon of the year will be staff data. The PowerSchool 2.2 SIF agent, which is in beta, will be featured in this connectathon, adds support for the SIF StaffAssignment object. Participants will also be able to do testing with all other SIF objects supported by PowerSchool, including the following list:

• CalendarSummary

• SectionInfo
