RIO Connect

Edit here: RIO Connect‍


RIO Connect is our middleware solution that integrates RIO Education with many external systems such as Moodle, Canvas, Xero, and many more.

If you have RIO Education and you are looking for options to connect with other external applications, you are at the right place to start with.


How do I start from here?

The following are the top 3 checklist that you may want to go through internally to gauge if RIO Connect is the right thing for you:

  1. Is the application a cloud solution? Is the application accessible through the internet? (If it requires connection through VPN or similar or if it requires any strict connectivity, very likely this is a ‘no’.)

  2. Does the application have an API that can be accessed through the cloud?

  3. Does the application mentioned match any of the connectors that we have connected with as listed here?


Checklist completed - What is next?

Depending on the outcome from the top 3 checklist, the following is what you can do next:

  • If checklist 1, 2 and 3 are “Yes”:
    • Is there any reference link already shared under the connection list section here?
      • Yes, see if it covers what they are looking for.
      • No, reach out to the RIO Education consultant or partner team to get some information around the specific application.

  • If checklist 1 and 2 are “Yes”, but not 3:
    • Reach out to RIO Education team to see if this is something can be done.
    • Preparing expectations:
      • Consider RIO Connect as a simple point to point connection where possible.
      • Ideally, the integration or the sync should be a 1-to-1 scenario.
      • RIO Connect should not be considered as a data migration tool.

  • None of the above combination:
    • Highly likely that RIO Connect is not a suitable approach.


What RIO Connect is connecting to so far?

Here is a list of connections that RIO Connect has established with so far:
