To develop your mobile key app, perform the following procedures to connect your Visionline development account to Seam:
Connect your Visionline development account to Seam.
This process includes installing and running Seam Bridge to connect your on-premises Visionline application to Seam. For more information, see Seam Bridge.
ASSA ABLOY Credential Services stores all the mobile credentials that your application issues. For more information about ASSA ABLOY Credential Services, see the ASSA ABLOY Credential Services integration guide.
You received a Credential Services development "tenant" account during the mandatory ASSA ABLOY mobile development course. To find out the credentials and details for this account, see Retrieve Your ASSA ABLOY Credential Services Development Account Details. Then, connect your development Credential Services account to Seam.
Locate your ASSA ABLOY Credential Services development tenant account details in the ASSA ABLOY Global Solutions Technology Partner Portal.
In a web browser, go to the ASSA ABLOY Global Solutions Technology Partner Portal.
Log in to the ASSA ABLOY Global Solutions Technology Partner Portal.
Click Accounts > Account List.
In the Agreements area, locate and open the text (.txt) file.
This text file contains the following information:
ASSA ABLOY development tenant account username
ASSA ABLOY development tenant account password
System ID for the development phase
Application ID for the development phase
ASSA ABLOY credential services URL for the development phase
In the top navigation pane of Seam Console, click ACS Systems. Then, in the upper-right corner of the Access Systems page, click New Access System.
In the Connect Webview, perform the following steps:
Click Continue.
If the Connect Webview displays multiple brand options, select Assa Abloy Credential Service.
In the Username field, type your development tenant account username.
In the Password field, type your development tenant account password.
In the Credential Services URL field, type the development Credential Services URL.
Click Submit.
Configure your ASSA ABLOY settings in Seam Console, as follows:
In the top navigation pane of Seam Console, click Settings.
On the Workspace Settings page, next to Assa Abloy Settings, click Edit.
In the Assa Abloy Settings dialog, type your development application ID.
Click Save.
ASSA ABLOY assigns you a preliminary application ID during the development phase. You cannot use this preliminary application ID to connect to live sites. After you receive certification, ASSA ABLOY provides a production application ID that you can use to connect to real sites. This production application ID uniquely identifies your application within both the iOS and Android app stores.
When you obtain certification, you must edit your Seam workspace settings to update this application ID.
Perform this process for each Visionline site that you want to connect to Seam.
In the top navigation pane of Seam Console, click ACS Systems.
On the Access Systems page, click New Access System.
Seam Console displays a Connect Webview that enables you to connect your ACS to Seam.
In the Connect Webview, click Continue.
If the Connect Webview displays multiple brand options, click Visionline.
On the Set up your Seam Bridge page, click latest Seam Bridge client.
Seam Bridge is a software-only component that enables you to connect on-premises software systems to the Seam platform. Because Visionline is an on-premises ACS, Seam Bridge is required for Visionline systems.
Download the Seam Bridge executable onto the on-premises computer that is running Visionline or onto a computer on the same network.
For systems requirements, see Seam Bridge.
Run the downloaded Seam Bridge executable file.
This application opens a webpage containing the Seam Bridge settings.
Click Create Pairing Code.
Copy the pairing code that the webpage displays.
In the Connect Webview, click Continue.
On the Visionline info page:
In the Enter your pairing token field, paste the pairing code that you copied.
In the Name your bridge field, type a unique name for Seam Bridge.
Click Submit.
On the Enter your credentials page:
In the Visionline Site Name field, type a name to identify the Visionline site within your Seam workspace.
In the Username field, type the username for your Visionline development account.
This account is the one that you created or identified in Visionline for the connection with Seam.
In the Password field, type the password for your Visionline development account.
Select the Mobile Keys will be issued in this system checkbox.
In the Mobile Access UUID field, type 1.
In the System ID field, type your system ID for the development phase.
If Seam Bridge is not installed on the same computer as Visionline, select Seam Bridge and Visionline server are installed on different computers and then type the local IP address of the on-premises computer running Seam Bridge.
Click Submit.
Click Close.
