Reporting Issues and Making Suggestions

To evolve and grow Ed-Fi data exchange standards and Ed-Fi Unified Data Model (UDM), community input is essential. This page describes how to participate by submitting new ideas and tracking the status of existing suggestions.

Data Standard Work Group

The Data Standard Work Group (DSWG) is an entity within the Ed-Fi Governance structure and is intended to enhance the communication, engagement and collaboration of all segments of the Ed-Fi Community members with the Data Standard team of Ed-Fi Alliance and within each other.

The main purpose is to represent the use cases and perspectives of the Ed-Fi API users in the field to guide Ed-Fi data standards model with model update ideas for the upcoming releases.

The group typically meets monthly; please see Data Standard Work Group for prior meeting notes and information on how to join the work group

Ed-Fi Jira Project

The Ed-Fi Alliance tracks issues and feature requests in Atlassian Jira Cloud. The Data Standard project is open for anyone in the world to read. Unfortunately, we are unable to open this up so that Ed-Fi community could create or comment on issues.

Submitting a Case

If you have questions or suggestions about how to use the Ed-Fi Data Standard, proposed changes, etc, then please sign-in to the Ed-Fi Community Hub to submit a "case" describing the situation. Ed-Fi's customer success team will help ensure that your request is routed to the data standard team.
