WARNING! If your school district/organization is using our XML API, you’ll need to switch to our JSON API as soon as possible. We will be sunsetting the XML API in March of 2026. You can go to Getting K-12 Data Using the JSON API for details about our JSON API offering. If you have any questions about migrating from XML to JSON, you can email k12apisupport@calamp.com.

CalAmp K-12 (https://login.synovia.com)


  • Integrated the Vision Portal screens into CalAmp K-12. These are the new Vision menu options: Home, Safety Events, Trips, Live View, Coaching, Video Requests, Drivers, Challenges, Reports, Assets, Users, and Configurations.

    The previously existing screens, Video Events and Video Requests, are still available as well, but the latter of these now is named Video Requests (K-12 Portal) on the menu.
  • Made it possible to schedule the Event Count reports for an overnight time range that spans midnight using the Night common range on the Timespan tab and Start and End times (for example, 9:00 p.m. and 5:00 a.m.).


CalAmp K-12 Mobile App


  • Fixed a bug that wasn’t sending messages from CalAmp K-12 to the CalAmp K-12 mobile app (producing a Failed to Send error).


Comparative Analysis


  • For consortium customers, fixed an issue that would show itineraries for another district on the Fleet Tracking screen’s Itineraries panel (if the vehicle previously ran routes for their district). 


Here Comes the Bus/Student Ridership


  • Fixed an issue that was preventing scan notifications from being sent out.


Student Ridership


  • Added support for the new PvA engine to the Rider History screen.
  • Changed old (inactive) boarding cards to no longer be visible on the Boarding Cards tab of the global search results by default. In addition, added a Show Inactive button to the top-right toolbar, which, when selected, will show the inactive cards.


Time and Attendance


  • In the Standard Time Card report parameters, added a Show FTE toggle. When this is selected, the results for each employee will include an entry that shows their FTE percentage and what that equates to in work hours, such as “FTE: 100% (8h/d; 40h/w).”
