ECF Downloads: help requested

Post by John Upham » Fri Oct 29, 2021 9:16 pm

I'm attempting to locate links to be able to download:

1. The current ECF membership list
2. The current ECF ratings list

Any help would be most appreciated. :D

Have you contacted the people responsible for the data? It is a basic courtesy to approach those responsible first.

Thanks Alex.

Is there a separate download for persons who are a member but may not have a ECF rating code?

Not a full answer because I've no idea how the data can be downloaded, but the system has already issued grading codes to both of the people who have joined W&Hz. This seems to be an efficient process.

Depending on people being available and there being an inventory, a job allocating new members their rating refs can occur twice a week.

So, there is no means of downloading a complete list of ECF members?

Neil,

Thanks and I knew how to do that.

I need to be able to import a list of members (who may or may not have a rating code) into the London League LMS.

When I asked a similar question in 2019 I got the following response:

"The full detailed membership spreadsheet is in the organisers area of the ECF website. You can apply to Andrew for password access as an organiser.

Sorry - GDPR meant we had to do it this way."
