Yes, we can work with you to determine what fields will be most beneficial to have in the matched dataset. Agile has over 900 fields we could append or fill in the blank with.

After standardizing your data to ensure the highest match rate, we perform a combination of exact and fuzzy matching on multiple fields.

First, we match the accounts. Then, when matching contacts, we narrow the search by first matching personnel within the matched accounts. For contacts, we may also check against our database of teachers at home information which includes email & physical addresses.

If multiple records match to the same Agile record, they will be flagged as Possible Duplicates. This indicator does NOT mean that your records were compared against each other.

Fields used for the match are below:

Accounts: Institution Name, Agile UID (if present), NCES ID, IPEDS IDs, Address/State/Zip (up to 2
addresses per account), Email Domain (explicit or from linked contacts), Website, Phone Number.

Contacts: First Name, Last Name, Email Address, Account Name, Address/State/Zip, Phone Number, and Agile institution and personnel UIDs (if available).

Recommended Fields: If you are unable to provide a full export, here are the recommended fields. Please provide as many of these fields as possible, even if the field is not populated on all records. IMPORTANT: Your unique record ID must be included for you to successfully import match results.

Timing is dependent on size of the files we are matching, the format, and layout of the original data to be matched. A 10-business day turnaround is standard in most cases.
