Verkada Guest offers a bells feature that allows you to configure a Guest type that sends a notification without requiring the user go through a full check-in process. This is handy for use cases, such as a delivery driver dropping off a package.
Configure a bell for your Guest site
In Verkada Command, go to All Products > Guest.
On the left navigation, click the Guest Settings (gear) icon.
Under Organization, scroll to Sites.
From the list of tiles, select the site where you want to configure a bell.
On the left, scroll to Guest Types and click Manage Guest Types.
On Guest Types:
At the top right, click the Add Guest Type icon.
Select the Bell radio button.
Click Save and Continue.
After selecting that option, you are prompted with a new menu that allows you to configure the various options for your new bell.
