API Documentation - ODS / API v2.1.1

The Ed-Fi ODS / API enables applications to read and write education data stored in an Ed-Fi ODS through a secure REST interface. The REST interface to the Ed-Fi ODS / API exposes metadata describing the exposed resources as well as the inputs, HTTP verbs, and schema of the exposed entities. This metadata enables a user interface (based on the Swagger framework) to display API documentation.

The documentation pages also provide a means to interact with a sandbox version of the ODS using the API, which allows developers to experiment with API calls and to view responses in a test environment.  

You can explore the API's interactively using the following credentials:
