An access code is a code used for a keypad or pinpad device. Unlike physical keys, which can easily be lost or duplicated, PIN codes can be customized, tracked, and altered on the fly.
When you create an access code on a device in Seam, it is created as a managed access code. Access codes that exist on a device that were not created through Seam are considered unmanaged codes. We strictly limit the operations that can be performed on unmanaged codes.
Prior to using Seam to manage your devices, you may have used another lock management system to manage the access codes on your devices. Where possible, we help you keep any existing access codes on devices and transition those codes to ones managed by your Seam workspace.
Not all providers support unmanaged access codes. The following providers do not support unmanaged access codes:

messageString
is_managedBoolean
Indicates that Seam does not manage the access code.
nameString
Name of the access code. Enables administrators and users to identify the access code easily, especially when there are numerous access codes.
Note that the name provided on Seam is used to identify the code on Seam and is not necessarily the name that will appear in the lock provider's app or on the device. This is because lock providers may have constraints on names, such as length, uniqueness, or characters that can be used. In addition, some lock providers may break down names into components such as `first_name` and `last_name`.
To provide a consistent experience, Seam identifies the code on Seam by its name but may modify the name that appears on the lock provider's app or on the device. For example, Seam may add additional characters or truncate the name to meet provider constraints.
To help your users identify codes set by Seam, Seam provides the name exactly as it appears on the lock provider's app or on the device as a separate property called `appearance`. This is an object with a `name` property and, optionally, `first_name` and `last_name` properties (for providers that break down a name into components).
