CS Gold: Door Access

Last updated: October 5, 2026

Housing.Cloud is capable of generating a Door Access CSV file with the intent of being consumed by CS Gold. The CSV transmission process will follow Housing.Cloud's standard SFTP process.

Configuration

  1. Institution will provide their CS Gold Site ID
  2. Institution will specify the transfer cadence of the file (e.g. every 30 minutes)
    1. The cadence can be any value supported by a Cron string, but it must be equal to or greater than every 10 minutes

File Format

Column Header Data Type Description
PRIMARYKEYVALUE string A Resident's sisId in Housing.Cloud
OCCUPANCY_START date string The date in which a Resident checked in
OCCUPANCY_END date string The date of the Occupancy end, or the date when a Resident checked out *
SITE_ID string Pass through value provided by Institution
BUILDING_ID string Building id in Housing.Cloud
FLOOR_ID string Floor name in Housing.Cloud
SUITE_ID string Suite name in Housing.Cloud
ROOM_ID string Room name in Housing.Cloud

 

Data Type Clarifications:

  • Date String will be an ISO date string using the format: yyyy-mm-ddTHH:MM:SS.MSZ
  • It is possible that FLOOR_ID and SUITE_ID are empty strings as those Inventory Levels are not required in Housing.Cloud. If those levels exist in Housing.Cloud, those fields will be populated in the file

Notes:

  • By default, an Occupancy will appear in the file as soon as the Resident is checked in
    • A configuration such that an Occupancy will appear in the file as soon as the Occupancy is created in Housing.Cloud
  • By default OCCUPANCY_END will be set to the Occupancy end date, until the Resident is checked out. As soon as the Resident is checked out, the OCCUPANCY_END date will be the check out date *
  • If your institution utilizes Ethos to connect Housing.Cloud to your SIS, the inventory naming pattern in CS Gold's Access Map must match the inventory naming pattern in your SIS. This is not an issue if your institution utilizes SFTP.
