Transfer Check-in Profiles and Settings via QR Code

Updated

This article explains how to save check-in settings as a profile, load them onto additional devices, and transfer them via QR code.

WHAT IS A CHECK-IN PROFILE?

A profile loads preconfigured check-in settings for your event, such as data source, filters, notifications, printing, access, and location. This allows you to configure multiple devices identically in seconds.

Profiles are saved per event. 
When you change a profile, all devices on which it is active automatically adopt the change.

You can open profiles under Settings > Check-in > Check-in Profile.
If no profile is active, the app displays No profile applied and uses the device's local settings.

CREATE A PROFILE

  1. Configure all settings as you want the profile to load them later.
  2. Open Check-in Profile and tap Manage profiles.
  3. Tap Create profile and enter a name, such as “Main entrance”.
  4. Confirm. The profile contains your current settings.

APPLY OR UPDATE A PROFILE

  • Apply: Under Profiles, select the desired profile. The settings are transferred to the device.
  • Use local settings: Select No profile applied.
  • Update: Tap Save current settings to profile and select the profile. The profile configuration is overwritten and updated on all devices using this profile.
  • Reload or delete: Under Manage profiles.
Important: If you change a setting while a profile is active, the app asks “Disconnect from profile?”. 
After disconnecting, the device no longer receives automatic updates to the profile.

TRANSFER SETTINGS VIA QR CODE

Without using a profile, you can transfer a device's settings directly via QR code.

  1. On the configured device, open Check-in Profile and tap Show QR code under Transfer settings via QR.
  2. On the target device, open the same event and tap Scan QR code.
  3. Scan the code. The app displays “Settings imported”.
Important: Both devices must have the same event open. If the configured printer cannot be reached from the target device, the printer settings will not be transferred.
