The Optix integration is divided into 2 parts.

Part 1: setting up the API integration.

Part 2: setting up a plan in Optix that connects with Kisi. In this integration Kisi manages the door access and Optix handles the payment of the space rent.

*Keep in mind that Optix only uses groups – so user must be the owner or admin of the place for the group.

 

Part 1 – Connecting with Kisi

1. Login to Optix and go to edit. Click on an active venue.

3-3.2 If Kisi API key was properly set in Part 1, it should show the available Kisi groups (This includes all groups that the user is not admin or owner of). Select the group with access control created for this plan, then click Create. If there are no groups visible check the Kisi dashboard to see if there are any groups created.
