The following section only applies to Legistar Users. If you don’t have the Legislative Management Suite, you can skip to the Launching iLegislate topic.

Before you can get started with iLegislate, you must complete the following steps to create and publish your agenda. For detailed information on these steps, see your Legistar User Guide.

  1. Generate your agenda in Legistar.

Note: If you are using Manual Sync, at this point you will need to export the agenda to the Granicus Platform by selecting Tools > Export Data. If you are using Auto Sync, proceed directly to publishing the agenda to InSite. If you are unsure which of these you are using, ask your Legistar Administrator.

  1. Verify that the agenda link was exported to the Granicus Platform. This is what triggers the data to show in iLegislate.
  2. Publish your agenda to InSite.

Tip for Success! If you are having trouble accessing a Legistar agenda in iLegislate, verifying that these steps have been completed is a great place to begin troubleshooting. If you haven’t completed the above steps, you won’t be able to see your agenda in iLegislate.

Note: To include attachments with your agenda export to Granicus, select Administration > System Settings > General >Export Attachments to MediaManager >Yes. Selecting this setting allows attachments to appear in iLegislate.  Also, please note that in order for the text file to be sent to iLegislate as an attachment you must have Auto Sync functionality turned on.
