Make last N digits of private student identifier unique
jpslav opened this issue · comments
We will want platforms to protect the Exchange identifiers for their students like any other PII or password.
That said, it'd be nice if the last 6 digits of each identifier were unique so that Platform and Exchange folks could discuss records for a specific student just by using those digits and without needing to give each other the entire private ID.
Could easily 0-pad the ID to 6 digits and concatenate it.
We discussed this and decided that it's probably not necessary, at least for now.
