Hi William, 

You have to make sure that the <WEBCREDENTIAL> tag is the first item within the <extension> tag (i.e. before the <customcolumns>). 

E.g. Change your XML to this : 



<extension> 



<WEBCREDENTIAL xmlns=" http://www.webct.com/IMS ">password123</WEBCREDENTIAL> 

<customcolumns xmlns=" http://www.webct.com/IMS "> 

<column name="User Type">STUDENT</column> 

<column name="Declared Major">COLLEGE</column> 

</customcolumns> 

</extension>

Greetings. 



I have an XML file I am trying to import with the Vista 4.2 API. However, it seems the API is not taking the password for individual users. Here is my XML snippet: 



<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> 

<enterprise> 

<properties> 

<datasource>My SIS</datasource> 

<datetime>2008-05-16T09:49:54</datetime> 

</properties> 

<!-- User account being created or updated --> 

<person> 

<sourcedid> 

<source>WebCT</source> 

<id>migueltest</id> 

</sourcedid> 

<userid>migueltest</userid> 

<name> 

<fn>testfirst Almanzatestlast</fn> 

<n> 

<family>Almanzatestlast</family> 

<given>testfirst</given> 

</n> 

</name> 

<email> my...@uh...</email > 

<datasource>WebCT</datasource> 

<extension> 

<customcolumns xmlns=" http://www.webct.com/IMS "> 

<column name="User Type">STUDENT</column> 

<column name="Declared Major">COLLEGE</column> 

</customcolumns> 

<WEBCREDENTIAL xmlns=" http://www.webct.com/IMS ">password123</WEBCREDENTIAL> 

</extension> 

</person> 

</enterprise> 



A separate XML file enrolls this particular user into a section, and the SIAPI import produces no errors upon user creation (he’s enrolled in the section, also), so I know the user is there. 



I am following the System_Integration_Utility_guide_Vista4.2.pdf file (Document Version 4.2.0.0) from BlackBoard. Is there anything I am missing?
