Interface for accessing SynergyVUE data

SynergyVUE Python Client

Access your StudentVUE information via Python.

About

StudentVUE object provides access to student data via python WSDL.

StudentVUE is a product from Edupoint that schools use for both parents and students to access course and grade information. I'm not affiliated with or work for Edupoint.

This project is a result of wanting to provide student data as sensors/attributes for Home Assistant. If you are into home automation, definitely check out Home Assistant!

StudentVUE vs ParentVUE?

StudentVUE is what an individual student uses to access their own information only. iOS apps and web interfaces are available for students to login.

ParentVUE is for parents to access their children's information. iOS app and web interface is available for parents to use.

The main difference is as a parent, you start up at a higher level and can pick which of your children you want to view information for. Once you choose a child, it then behaves pretty much the same as StudentVUE. Parents also have their own account to use so you don't have to worry about keeping track of your child account username/password.

Testing

I am only able to test this with our public school district. However, doing google searches on SynergyVUE results in the URL's for the login page for other districts. By grabbing the hostname and adding the WSDL URL to the results, I am able to pull up the interface which looks the same as the one for our school. My assumption is this will work for anyone using StudentVUE. If you are able to test and verify, please let me know!

TODO
