Create and Edit Rosters Through File Uploads

If you have many rosters to create or edit, it may be easier to perform those actions through file uploads. This task requires familiarity with composing comma-separated value (CSV) files or working with Microsoft Excel.

Tip: You can pull the information you need from TIDE to edit existing rosters through file uploads by exporting the roster information from the Manage Rosters page, including the teacher’s email address.

To upload rosters:

1.From the Rosters task group, select Upload. The Upload Roster page appears.

2.Following the instructions in the section Uploading Records, fill out the Roster template, and then upload it to TIDE.

For additional information on the options available in this upload file, check the PDF version of the TIDE User Guide on the Portal: https://idaho.portal.cambiumast.com/.

3.Designate a roster as a Reporting roster by adding an email address for a teacher. Leaving this field blank creates a TIDE-only roster.

Alert: If you want to change a roster from a Reporting Roster to a TIDE-Only Roster or vice-versa, you’ll need to use the Edit Rosters task. Uploads do not support changing from one roster type to another.
