Temporary keys. BLE device

On the Temporary keys tab, administrators can track and manage temporary keys. These keys are assigned to users for interaction with the current BLE device during a specific period. The Temporary keys tab presents a list of keys, associated users, and provides key management, search, and filtering tools.

The temporary key list is presented as a table with an overview of the main data on each key:

  • ID: unique system identifier of the record linking the user to the temporary key.

  • Name: name of the user associated with the temporary key. Selecting this field opens the user card.

  • Login: user login associated with the temporary key. Selecting this field opens the user card.

  • Key status: current state of the key. Possible states:

    • Active: the key is valid.

    • Inactive: the key is invalid and its validity period has not started yet or has expired.

  • Start date: date and time when the key validity period begins.

  • End date: date and time when the key validity period ends.

Each row ends with a vertical ellipsis icon that opens the context menu for deleting a specific key.

For quick key search and management, the interface provides:

  • Column sorting

  • Search by user name and login

  • Key filtering by status

Add a temporary key

Administrators can add a temporary key only for BLE devices linked to an access point.

To add keys, the administrator requires permissions from the following groups:

  • BLE devices: View BLE device list, View BLE device, View and manage BLE keys.

  • Billing users: View billing user list, Update billing user.

  • System users: View system user list, Update system user.

  • Platform tree: View and manage platform tree.

  • Access points: View access point list.

To add a temporary key, follow the steps:

  1. Select Add temporary key.

  2. The Login selection drop-down opens. The list displays system users, billing users, and subusers with the Active or Blocked status who currently have neither a permanent nor a temporary key for this BLE device.

  3. Specify the start date and time.

  4. Specify the end date and time.

  5. Once users are selected, select Add.

The maximum number of keys created simultaneously is 500.

The system then checks for available licenses with the BLE keys parameter:

  • The number of free licenses must match the number of selected users. If sufficient free licenses are available, the system adds keys for all specified users.

  • If the available license count is insufficient or the BLE key license limit is reached, the system aborts key creation and displays an error message.

The system generates the Temporary key addition event in Devices > BLE devices > Added > BLE device card > User actions tab.

Delete a temporary key

To delete a temporary key:

  1. Select the vertical ellipsis icon to open the context menu in the key row.

  2. Select Delete and confirm the action.

Upon key deletion:

  • The license with the BLE keys parameter releases.

  • The key is no longer associated with the user account. The BLE device no longer appears in the list of available devices in the mobile app.

  • The system generates the Temporary key deletion event in Devices > BLE devices > Added > BLE device card > User actions tab.
