- Some LEAs are having issues with the Key and Secret on the TEA Ed-Fi IODS Connection screen. We have added this statement to our instructions:
- Note: Due to characters such as I (capital I) or l (lowercase L) being interpreted differently depending on keyboard attributes, etc., it is highly advisable to first paste the key and secret to Notepad or Notepad++ and then copy/paste that to the Key and Secret in OnDataSuite.
