Member Profile

Purpose

The page is used to set up rules for which membership cards may be used in a Speedgate. The profile consists of a header and a number of lines that control:

• which membership types are allowed
• whether guests may be included
• whether member data and photos should be returned in an API call (Ticket Scanner App/Gate software)
• which admission codes apply
• any day and time restrictions

Header fields

• Code
  • Unique code for the profile.
• Description
  • Description of the profile.
• Validation Mode
  • Strict (reject undefined): cards without a matching rule are rejected.
  • The field is read-only on the page.

Line fields

Each line defines a rule for a membership card.

• Rule Type
  • Allow or Reject
  • Automatically created as Allow
• Description
  • Description of the line
• Membership Code
  • Which membership type the rule applies to
  • Blank = applies to all
• Allow Guests
  • The member may bring guests
• Include Member Information
  • Return member information in the API response
• Include Member Photo
  • Return member photo in the API response
• Item No.
  • Limits the rule to a specific ticket product
• Admission Code
  • Specific admission/access point
  • Blank = use the default from the ticket setup
• Calendar Code
  • Calendar that controls which days access is allowed
• Allow From Time
  • The time from which access is allowed
• Allow Until Time
  • The time until which access is allowed

How to use the page

1. Create a new profile.
2. Fill in Code and Description.
3. Create one or more lines.
4. Select the relevant Membership Code.
5. Optionally set:
   • Admission Code
   • Calendar Code
   • Allow From/Until Time
   • Allow Guests
6. Link the profile in Speedgate Setup as the default profile or on a specific scanner.
7. Test with valid and invalid membership cards.

How validation works

When a membership card is scanned, the system typically checks:

• whether the card exists
• whether the card is not blocked
• whether the membership is valid
• whether a suitable profile line exists
• whether the date, calendar, and time match
• whether the admission code matches

If everything matches, access is granted.

Important rules and pitfalls

• Allow From Time and Allow Until Time may only be used on Allow lines.
  • If they are used on a Reject line, an error will occur.
• A profile in Strict mode without any lines will effectively reject all cards.
• Validation Mode cannot be changed directly on the page.
• New lines are numbered automatically.
• When the profile is deleted, its lines are also deleted.

Typical use

Use the page when you want to control member access in Speedgate, for example:

• specific memberships may enter
• access only on specific days
• access only within a specific time period
• guests may or may not be included
• member information or photo should be shown on scan through the API
