**SchoolDay** supports Secure Data Sync with a wide range of the district's student information systems (SIS). One of them is *Synergy SIS*. Synergy is the foundation of the enterprise-level Synergy Education Platform (Synergy EP®), providing all the data and process management functionality you expect from a world-class SIS while extending beyond traditional SIS boundaries to deliver greater value. Synergy SIS empowers your district to do more, saving time and money while helping to improve efficiency and educational outcomes.

To configure data sync with Synergy, perform the following steps:

1. [Obtain Synergy API credentials](https://help.gg4l.com/knowledge/skyward?hsLang=en#clientid-clientsecret)
2. [Setup Synergy app on SchoolDay](https://help.gg4l.com/knowledge/skyward?hsLang=en#skyward-in-sp)
3. [Sync data with Synergy](https://help.gg4l.com/knowledge/skyward?hsLang=en#run-sync)

### Get Synergy API credentials

To get your Synergy API credentials, refer to the [Synergy Setup Guide](https://help.schoolday.com/hubfs/OneRoster_SetupGuide_Rostering.pdf?hsLang=en) up Third-Party Integration and where to find the API credentials you need.

### Setup Synergy app on SchoolDay

To integrate Synergy SIS with SchoolDay, add the Synergy app from the gallery and configure it.

#### Add Synergy app from the gallery

2. Go to **Connect** \> **Application Gallery**.
3. Type "Synergy" in the search box.
4. Select **Synergy** from results panel.
5. Click **Activate.** Wait a few seconds while the app is added to your environment.

   ![synergy\_delivery config](https://help.schoolday.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base/Configuring%20SIS%20API%20Integration/synergy_delivery%20config.png?width=688&height=177&name=synergy_delivery%20config.png)
2. (Optional) Click **Advanced Settings**:  
     - **SIS ID prefix:** If multiple data sources of the same type are used, add a prefix to avoid merging entities with equal SIS IDs.
     - **Bulk Upload Mode**: Select to detect deleted records by comparing them with the previous upload.
     - **Data will be uploaded from multiple data sources**: Select if uploading data from multiple sources (e.g., SIS and Active Directory). Leave clear if it uses a single source (e.g., SIS only).
     - **Compare records accordingly to the Domains of Uniqueness:** Select to activate duplicate detection.
     - **Preview of data upload:** Select to manually approve every data sync. New data won’t be available until you accept the changes.
     - **Sync hold threshold:** Set a threshold for significant changes. Updated data won’t be exported until you approve these changes.
3. (Optional) Click **Test Connection** to verify the connection with Synergy SIS.
4. Accept the **Terms of Use and/or Privacy Policy**. Click **Next**.
5. In the **Schools Mapping**, choose schools you wish to sync with SchoolDay. Select specific schools by dragging the slider or choose all by clicking the **Auto Mapping** button. [See Schools Mapping](https://help.gg4l.com/knowledge/schools-mapping?hsLang=en#scenario_1). Click **Next**.
6. In the **Attributes Mapping**, specify which Synergy attributes will sync with SchoolDay. Click **Next**. **Tip**: You can finish the configuration of the Synergy app in this step.  
   ![attributes-mapping\_finish-configuration](https://help.schoolday.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base/Configuring%20SIS%20API%20Integration/attributes-mapping_finish-configuration.png?width=688&height=212&name=attributes-mapping_finish-configuration.png)
7. (Optional) In the **Data Requirements**, configure what actions should be taken if some data attributes are missed. Click **Next**.
8. (Optional) In the **Filter Rules** step, set up data filtering by different entity types. Click **Next**.
9. (Optional) In the **Domains of Uniqueness**, define parameters that are required to be unique to avoid duplicates in the system. [See Domains of Uniqueness](https://help.gg4l.com/knowledge/configuring-new-domains-of-uniqueness?hsLang=en). Click **Next**.
10. (Optional) In the **Master Fields**, define rules to prevent data duplication when synchronizing data from your app and an SIS to SchoolDay. [See Master Fields](https://help.gg4l.com/knowledge/duplicate-records-in-school-passport-after-data-sync?hsLang=en). Click **Next**.
11. (Optional) In the **Schedule**, set up how often you want to automatically sync data with Synergy SIS. Click **Next**.
12. (Optional) In the **Done**, click **Finish** to complete the setup.
13. Wait a few seconds for the app configuration to apply, after which you will be redirected to the Synergy application dashboard.

### Sync data with Synergy SIS

Once the Synergy integration is set up, you can run sync with Synergy SIS at any time. 

We recommend running a sync if you have new or updated data in Synergy for SchoolDay. Please note, that if a teacher or student is removed from the sync, their enrollments will also be deleted.

To run a sync with Synergy SIS, go to the Synergy app in SchoolDay and click **Run Import**.
