Sometimes you will need to have users complete workflows after arriving on site. This can slow down the check-in process if there are other people to be checked-in through a sign-in point.

The auto-logout feature can be used to set up a separate station for users to complete workflows through another device (for example, an additional iPad or computer).

To ensure that workflows are accurately linked to users, auto-logout can be enabled so that users are logged out after they complete a response and then subsequent users required to login to their account before completing a response.

How does it work?

After completing a workflow, users will be automatically logged out of their Sine account after 5 seconds.

Depending on the settings for the workflow completed, users will see one of two screens after submitting their response:

  • Approved (for auto-approved workflows); or

  • Pending (for workflows requiring approval)

Implementing auto-logout

Auto-logout is enabled using parameters when sharing a link to a Workflow. This parameter is added to the end of the URL for the Workflow you are sharing.

Loop

To enable the auto-logout loop, simply add ?autoLogout=loop to the end of the URL you are using to share the workflow, as below.

https://dashboard.sine.co/workflows/visitor/BjwOsrQFx?autoLogout=loop

When enabled the app will cycle through the same workflow, allowing users to log in, complete the workflow, and be logged out multiple times in a row.

This can be used where you will have multiple users who need to complete the same workflow in their own respective accounts.
