Integrate Simply Studio with Kisi

Simply Studio is a gym management software designed to manage memberships and operations for studios, such as fitness centers, yoga studios, and other similar facilities. By integrating Kisi with Simply Studio, you can grant access to users based on their membership types in Simply Studio.

info

This is a partner-built integration, maintained and supported by the partner.

Prerequisites​

  • Kisi organization administrator rights
  • Simply Studio account

Generate a Kisi API key​

You need to have organization administrator or organization owner rights to create an API key. We recommend creating API keys from the organization owner's account, to avoid the API key becoming invalid when an organization admin loses their admin rights.

  1. Sign in to Kisi
  2. On the top right corner, click on your name and click on My Account
  3. Next, select the API tab and click on Add API key
  4. Enter your name, your Kisi password, and your verification code and click Add
  5. Copy the API key shown on the screen and click Close

Set up the integration in Simply Studio​

  1. Sign in to Simply Studio
  2. Go to Settings
  3. Click on the Integration tab
  4. Locate the Kisi section
  5. Go to the API Key field and paste the API key you obtained in the previous step
  6. Click Save Kisi API Key

Once Kisi is activated:

  • All members with active memberships in Simply Studio are automatically granted access to all locks associated with the Kisi account controlling your studio's doors.
  • When a member's status becomes inactive due to membership expiration or insufficient credits, their access is automatically revoked in Kisi. They will no longer be able to enter your studio using their phones.
  • When a new member joins your studio and has an active membership, Simply Studio creates a corresponding user in Kisi. However, the Kisi admin needs to manually onboard this user in Kisi to grant them access through specific door readers (RFID, NFC, keypad, etc.).
note

Upon initial Kisi activation, all existing active members in Simply Studio are automatically granted access as part of the activation process.
