OpenCCC Account Creation Confirmation Email
To better support our students access and retain the details of their new OpenCCC accounts, a system auto-generated confirmation email will be sent to the email address provided during account creation. In addition to basic user account details, the email will include the student's new CCCID (California Community Colleges Identification) and links to support services, including the OpenCCC Account Recovery system. Additional information included in the confirmation email message:
- CCCID Confirmation: The user's unique seven-digit CCCID (three letters + four numbers);
- Apply to College: A reminder that the creation of the OpenCCC account is not equivalent to applying to college, and provides a hyperlink to CCCApply.org where the student can apply to the college of their choice if they haven't done so already.
- Self-Service Account Recovery: Information and a hyperlink to the OpenCCC.net website for Account Recovery;
- Need Help? Information and a hyperlink to the online student support site, CCCHelp.info, to access 24/7, online support information.

Downloads
Fix for Boolean Formats with nullValues
A fix was made to the Download client which was defaulting to printing an empty string for boolean formats with a null value. This issue was identified after a recent release as a change in behavior from previous versions and was creating issues for some colleges. There is a workaround in place where the value can set to nullValue="<false value>" attribute in the format file; however, this release will fix the issue and revert back to the old behavior.

The following information was added to the Boolean Formatter information in the Download Client User Guide: "If the nullValue attribute is not defined, then any fields with null values will default to display the falseValue attribute in your download data." |
