All data extracted from the ASSIST system is in a .txt format to be uploaded and interpreted by another computer system, such as a campus degree audit or transfer planning application. We look forward to future releases as we expand our data sharing options, including articulation data and other data in JSON format via API.

Data Sharing Operations Expansion Overview
Work continues to strenthen, secure, and ready the system for widescale data sharing via API. System offices (CSUCO, UCOP, CCCCO) and participating ASSIST institutions will be provided priority access in by Fall (Oct-Nov-Dec) 2024 after the launch of the ASSIST self-service data portal in Summer (Jul-Aug-Sep) 2024.
Additional system security and license agreement formalization are necessary to begin sharing data with the general public or for personal use. At this time, we anticipate API data sharing access will release to non-institution requestors during the 2024-2025 Academic Year.
The request process above is not expected to change.
