Allowing Multiple Keys to be Used for a Single Action

You can allow users to tap one key in the MicroStrategy Badge app and unlock multiple physical resources at the same time by combining keys into a batch key. When a user taps a batch key, all locations controlled by individual keys that compose the batch key are unlocked.

For example, your company lounge has two doors that you want to open simultaneously. You can combine the keys for both lounge doors into one batch key. When a user taps the batch key, both lounge doors are unlocked.

To combine individual keys into a batch key, follow the steps below.

You must integrate your physical access control system (PACS) with MicroStrategy Identity. For steps, see Enabling access to physical locations with MicroStrategy Identity.
