What the Sentral integration does

RollCall is a certified Sentral integration partner. Using the Sentral API, student and guardian data syncs automatically into RollCall so staff never re-enter enrolment details. The integration is fully supported by the Sentral Customer Care Team.

Data flow

One-way sync

Sentral is the source of truth. Student and guardian data flows one-way from Sentral into RollCall on an automated nightly sync, with a dry-run preview before changes are applied, so you never re-key enrolments.

Setup

Gather your Sentral credentials
From your Sentral administration console, obtain an API key and your base URL (RollCall supports multi-campus tenants). Your Sentral customer care team can assist if API access isn't already switched on.
Enter them in RollCall's student sync
Add the credentials in RollCall's student sync setup. They're stored securely and used only to read the student and guardian data needed to build your bus rolls.
Preview with a dry run
Run a dry run to preview exactly which students and guardians will be created, updated or made inactive before anything is imported.
Enable the nightly sync
Once the preview looks right, switch on the automated nightly sync (you can also trigger a manual sync any time) so RollCall always reflects your current roll.
