UniFi Access - Add Door Attendant

Once the Access application is set up, the UniFi OS owner will automatically be the door attendant for each door. This article describes how to add door attendants and receive doorbell notifications. Door attendants have permission to:

• Receive the doorbell notifications from doors assigned to them.
• Access the live view of doors assigned to them and unlock doors remotely.
• Monitor the door statuses in real-time.

Requirements for Receiving Doorbell Notifications

• Your readers have met the requirements.
• The UniFi OS Owner has enabled "Remote Access" in the local OS Settings > Console Settings > Advanced.
• The door attendants have enabled notifications for their UniFi Access applications, UniFi Access mobile apps, Identity Enterprise mobile apps, and UniFi Identity Enterprise workspaces:
  • Browser notifications are enabled on the system settings of their PC.
  • UniFi OS and UniFi Identity Enterprise workspace notifications are enabled in their browsers.
  • Notifications of the UniFi Access and Identity Enterprise mobile apps are enabled on their mobile device's system settings.
