Native Integration: Area Sync
Once you have saved your Sync Configuration (described above) you can then add the individual Area Syncs to synchronise Feenics Doors against individual Areas in Sure View.

- Click Add Area Sync
- Complete the Area Sync Fields

Identifier |
This is the identifier that you want to sync your Feenics items against. You can group this in three different ways depending on how you have organised your Feenics assets
Note: Leaving the identifier blank will cause sync to bring in all Acre items. Each of these can syncronise on absolute values or make use of the * wildcard e.g.
ReaderName=BuildingA-*
Would synchronise against all readers that started with "BuildingA-" e.g.
BuildingA-1 BuildingA-2 BuildingA-3 |
