4 How it works

Bookings get sent to the locks at the set time prior to check-in. A booking info code Remotelock_PIN which will show the pin number created for the booking.

You can change the pin manually in the LOCKSTATE_PIN booking info code and the new pin will be sent to the lock at the next update.

To force no pin to be sent for a booking, change the value of the LOCKSTATE_PIN booking info item to none, (i.e. the word "none")

Updates are sent multiple times per day and sends bookings for the selected days in advance. To instantly push updates through click "Send Data to Lockstate".

If the dates of the booking is changed or the booking is moved to a different room those details will be sent to the locks.

If bookings are cancelled we delete the guest out of LOCKSTATE this will remove the access.

The Email address of the guest is sent to Lockstate. You can set Remotelock up to automatically send Emails to the guest. Alternatively you can set up an Auto Action in SETTINGS->GUEST MANAGEMENT->AUTO ACTIONS.

The template variable for the Pin is [BOOKINGINFOCODETEXT:LOCKSTATE_PIN].

5 Auto Check-in

Auto check-in will add a booking info item called CHECKIN to the booking when the guest first uses the lock. To use auto check-in you must setup a webhook to send notifications from the lock to Beds24.

There are two steps to the webhook setup:

1) Add a Webhook Notification Contact in Remotelock

the URL of the webhook must contain your Beds24 ownerId number at the end like ?ownerid=12345

https://api.beds24.com/lockstate.com/notify.php?ownerid=<Your Beds24 owner ID>

The Content Type must be "JSON"

The secret can be left empty

2) Add a Notification in Remotelock

The notification type is "Webhook"

The Webhook Notification Contact is the contact you created in step 1)

The source should be "Account"

The Events must be "Access Granted" and "First Access Only"

6 Common Problems

Lockstate have two types of access: users and guests. Bookings from Beds24 create guests.
