Updating Your Download Client XML Files

In general, in order to download new and changed data fields and values that get deployed in CCCApply applications, you must first add and/or make changes to the fields in your application-specific Format Definition XML file(s) and update the existing (transfer-client.jar) file for current release. 

For the 6.57.0 Pilot release, update your Standard Application Format Definition XML file with the data field changes specified in the New & Changed Data Fields table, above.   

To ensure your CCCApply download files are always in synch with the latest release version, we recommend that all new and changed data fields be added to your download files (Format Definition XML) and replace/update the Download Client Jar file with each release. This should be done whether you plan to import the new fields to your college SIS system.
