Assign a User Access to a Door

Grant a user access to unlock a door

If your organization uses Directories for Access Control, see Manage Users with Directories before making changes. It explains how Directories affect where users are managed and what permissions apply.

Before a user is able to badge into a door they must be given access to the door. A user is given access to a door by adding them to an access group that has been assigned to an access level including the relevant door.

• To add a user to an access group, you must be an Access User Admin or Access User Manager.

• To add an access level and a door to an access group, you must be an Access Site Admin or Access Site Manager.

See Roles and Permissions for Access Control for more information.

Access Site roles allow you to see the access controllers and doors on your Home and Devices pages.

• If you are an Org Admin, you can give yourself Access System Admin in order to inherit Access Site Admin for all sites.

• If you are not an Org Admin, a current Access Site Admin for the site with the specific door must grant you an Access Site role.
