This documentation serves as an introduction to the latest features and significant changes made for the Ed-Fi ODS / API v2.1.1.
This release has focused on remaining backwards compatible with the Ed-Fi ODS/API v2.0 and v2.1 releases, and is still aligned to the Ed-Fi Data Standard v2.0. In addition to a significant number of enhancements and bug fixes that improve stability and performance, this release introduces API Composite Resources, which allow platform hosts to create API endpoints that combine and re-shape resources – analogous to the way a database view can join information from multiple tables. The as-shipped configuration contains two useful API Composites, one for enrollment data and another for assessment information.
Audience
This documentation is for technical professionals who work with educational data, including business analysts, database administrators, and software developers.
