Workflow Integration

Asset Events

Assets events are events used to trigger Workflow actions on an asset level. For more information about Workflows, see the Workflows section.

Last Access Event

The Last Access Event contains the details regarding the last access to a door. This can be accessed by adding an Access Denied/Granted trigger to a Workflow. Save the project and select the Last Access Event as the triggering item.

Table 5. Properties
Item ID	The unique identifier of the item.
Item Type	The type of item.
Access Granted	Whether access was granted (True) or not (False).
Date/Time	The Date and Time of access event.
Name	The name of the owner of the card.
User Name	The Username of the user that last accessed this asset.

Note: Doors will only receive Access Events from readers that share the same unique ID. In/Out doors must rely on the trigger from their associated reader.

Troubleshooting

Logs from the driver and Runtime can be viewed in the Debug Tools client. These messages contain information which can provide further context for issues during initialization, or while actively running. This can help diagnose problems.
