Genea access control

About the Genea integration

Integrate Genea with Robin so that a badge swipe at a Genea-controlled door checks users into Robin automatically. This article shows how to set up and use the integration.

How it works

When users swipe their badges at Genea-controlled doors, Robin checks them into the office automatically. This makes check-in faster and adds data to attendance and usage analytics.

• If a user has a desk reservation, Robin checks them into their desk and shows them as "Checked in or confirmed on-site".
• If a user has no desk reservation when they swipe their badge, Robin creates a visit, checks it in and shows the user as "Confirmed on-site".
• Admins see a real-time list of who is in the office on the Daily Roster, and see who checked in with a badge swipe.
• Badge data shows in analytics as a desk check-in, as a count toward "confirmed on site", or both. It also shows the check-in method.
