Mobile Integration Server cache
The Mobile Integration Server caches certain data that changes infrequently.
The table below lists the types of information that are cached by the Mobile Integration Server, and shows the default item count (number of items of that type that are cached) and the default expiration time after which the data is refreshed. The table also indicates which SIS's (Banner, Colleague, or PowerCampus) use each type of information.
If you want to change the item count or refresh interval, use the procedure in Change the Mobile Integration Server caching behavior. To immediately clear the cache, use the procedure in Manually clear the Mobile Integration Server cache.

| Grades | Colleague | A set of grade definitions that map the Grade ID from the student's record to a display value, such as "B+" for use in the Grades module.
