Genea access control

Overview

Integrate Genea with Robin to allow Genea-controlled doors to check users into Robin with a badge swipe automatically. This guide will walk you through the steps to set up and start using the integration. 

How it works 

When users swipe their badges at the Genea-controlled doors, they'll be automatically checked into the office via Robin, streamlining the check-in process and enriching attendance and usage analytics.

• If a user has a desk reservation, they’ll be checked into their desk and reflected as "Checked in or confirmed on-site".
• If a user does not have a desk reservation when they swipe their badge, a visit will be created, checked in, and reflected as "Confirmed on-site".
• Admins can view a real-time list of who is in the office from the Daily Roster and see who checked in via a badge swipe. 
• Badge data shows up in analytics as a desk check-in and/or counts towards someone "confirmed on site" and specifies the check-in method used.
