Hello first timers! If you are ready to set up the integration between Element451 and Common App follow the steps below:

  1. Contact your Common App representative and let them know you would like Element451 to be the recipient of your Scheduled Delivery Service (SDS) files. This is a crucial step as Common App will not send anything to Element451 without your sign off and we cannot proceed with the integration until this step is complete.
  2. Let Element451 know you are wanting to set up the integration with Common App.
    1. Currently in implementation with Element451? Reach out to your Implementation Strategist.
    2. Are you live with your Element451 instance? Reach out to your Account Manager.
  3. You’ll be prompted to fill out a form with all the information Element451 needs to get a head start on the integration before an initial meeting.
  4. An Element451 team member will schedule a call to review the integration components and next steps.
  5. For the testing phase, Element451 runs a small sample of records through the import by hand. These records will be imported into a segment and shared with your team to review.
  6. After confirmation that the records are populated correctly, the Element451 team member will turn on the external scheduler and your Common App integration will be live!
