Setting up Communication with UTREx
Administrators can request Student Achievement Backpack files from the USBE UTREx system directly from a student's PowerSchool Student Backpack page. When PowerSchool sends these requests to the UTREx system, the Backpack data is pulled into the student's Student Backpack page. Requesting and pulling a student's backpack file into PowerSchool requires setting up communication between PowerSchool and UTREx.
To set up communication between PowerSchool and UTRex :
- On the Start page, click the School link and choose District Office. The District Start Page appears.
- In the left panel, under Setup, click System. The System Administrator page appears.
- Under State, click Ut Backpack Communication Setup. The Backpack Communication Setup page appears.
- In the Client Authentication Credentials field, enter your API credentials.
- If the remaining fields are blank, click Restore Defaults. The values below appear.
- Click Save.
