CUD attributes

Data attributes available

Expand All

The CUD attribute set (CAS) comprises a list of attributes which are available, by default, to all registered users of CUD for all person records in CUD.  Some attributes in the CAS are consolidated values from multiple sources, others are single values taken from a single source.  Consolidated values are established by "data democracy": the most popular value presented by the underlying sources is selected, with tie-breaks settled randomly.  The values used for this may be obtained from the CUD UI by downloading the results as XML with the "Use structured data format" box ticked.

The default available attributes also include the foreign keys from the source systems, i.e. the unique ID values in those systems.

* SITS provides the foreign key attribute (and data) for students. The OSS foreign key attribute is historic and remains unchanged from as it was on 19 December 2014.

Continuing students have the same value for SITS Student Code as it was for OSS Student Number.

Additional attributes, not included in the CAS, are available on application. You must have a good reason for using additional attributes, access to which will be considered in consultation with the data owner. 

Requests for access to SITS attributes (those within the "cud:uas_sits:" namespace) will need to be approved by the local information custodian.

* SITS attributes available from 5 January 2015. OSS attributes were removed from CUD on 26th November 2019.

[1] cud:uas_sits:oss_code refers to the OSS-style Course Code, now mastered in SITS for legacy reasons.

[2] Richer, structured, nested data.

[3] For values, see CUD Data Reference

[4] The cud:uas:universitycard_paxton_id attribute is now deprecated: IAM do not recommend using this door access method as the calculation reduces the identifier number space and results in Paxton identifier duplication across unrelated cards.
