Generate a single-use code that can be used to log into the scanner app and check-in ticket holders for the selected event. This is useful to be able to give front-of-house staff access to the scanner app without needing to give out your main login details.
​
A single-use code will provide the user with access to continuously check tickets for a particular event until the code is deactivated or logged out of the app.
​

Create a single use code

Follow the steps below to successfully create a single use code:
​
1. On the Access Tonic dashboard, click Manage next to the event you wish to access on the app.
2. Go to the Settings tab.
3. Select the Scanner tab.
4. Click + ADD on Device Settings.
5. Enter a Device Name.
6. Save to generate a unique token ID.
7. On the sign-in screen of the app, select sign in with a single-use code.

App Settings Key

  • Device Name: A name given to a scanner. Note: Multiple scanners can share the same device name.

  • Remote Verification: Attempts to sync data with the admin on every scan.

    • We recommend only activating if you have a strong wifi signal.

  • Validate Only: Disables the device from checking in tickets and validates only.

  • Dark Mode: Make the interface a darker colour for low-lit environments.

  • Device Stats: Displays (other) device stats on the scanner if there are multiple scanners in use.

    • This only works with an internet connection.

  • Token: A short single-use token used to sign in to the device.

  • Status: A token can only used once. The status can be new, used or revoked. Revoking a token will sign a user out who has used the token to sign in to the Scanner.

  • Restricted Mode: Disables the ability to change settings
