this will be a weird question, any chance you have to clear cookies and cache? What version are you on? I would see if any other users in your district that use b+ is having the same issue and if they are then you should open a ticket with support.

@burnsc The Data Dictionary has been removed as it is public facing, likely due to the recent breach (this is a guess as to why, but it has been removed).

Thank you Jeff. I did wonder if it was related.

Cool cool, but I need it to do my job, and nobody's putting the toothpaste back in the tube. Any alternatives?

According to the Alberta community Zoom meeting that just ended, it will be reactivated (though no guesses as to when) and will be hosted on the server protected by login access privileges rather than public facing.

To follow up on this: I realized that the SQL Studio plugin has a built-in data dictionary, so I was able to use that to figure things out. Thanks.

The data dictionaries have been moved to the PowerSchool SIS Knowledge Bases > PowerSchool SIS Data Dictionaries section.

Understand your need to remove the Data Dictionary. However, want to express my extreme dislike of removing the Data Dictionary. It takes too much time to drop and look here.

They are downloadable pdfs. Save them to your local machine so you will always have them handy.

Every time I try to go to the data dictionary, it states I do not have access. I have read the article, and submitted a request. Any reason why I cannot access this? I am the technical contact and PowerSchool admin at my school.

Would you please confirm if you are still facing issues with accessing the resources?
