Connect an ACS to Seam

Learn how to connect your access control system to Seam.

You can use Seam Console or the Seam API to connect your access control system to Seam. You use a Connect Webview to authorize the connection.

Connect an ACS Using Seam Console

1. Log in to Seam Console.

2. In the upper-left corner, click the workspace switcher and select or create a workspace.

   

3. In the top navigation pane, click ACS Systems.

4. On the Access Systems page, click New Access System.

   Seam Console displays a Connect Webview that enables you to connect a virtual ACS to Seam.

5. In the Connect Webview, follow the prompts to authorize the connection.

   If you want to connect a virtual ACS to a sandbox workspace, use the corresponding sandbox ACS credentials.

   To connect a real access control system, see the system integration guide for your ACS to learn any brand- or system-specific prerequisites, requirements, and restrictions.

The Access Systems page now displays the newly-connected access control system.
