NOTE: This article assumes you have properly installed the Brivo access control system, and have full access to Brivo to set up integrations.

What Brivo Information do you need?

To set up the Brivo integration in the Rhombus console you will need the four items below:

1. Username - This is the Brivo username that is tied to your account.
2. Password - This is the password tied to your account.
3. Client ID - This is generated after creating a new application.
4. Client Secret - This is generated after creating a new application.

Activate the Integration in Brivo

To get a client ID and client secret, you must create a new integration under the configuration section. You should name this new application "Rhombus" and insert a description of your choice. Make sure to choose "password" as your Authentication Type as seen below:

After you create a new application, your client ID and client secret are under the information bubble. Your username is under the bottom left tab.

Note: Do not use your email address as your username for the integration. Your password is the same password you use to log in to the Brivo Console.

Activate the Integration in Rhombus

In the Rhombus Console, you'll navigate to the path below to turn on the integration:

Settings > Third Party Integrations > Badge Systems > Brivo 

You'll be asked for the Brivo username, password, client ID, and client secret as seen below:

Setting Up the Integration

1. Once you have activated this on both ends, your Brivo access points will appear within the Rhombus console under the "Device Name" column.

2. From here, you can select which cameras to associate with which readers.

3. Then, you can then enable additional integration options.

4. Lastly, click the "Save" button and enjoy! You have now completed the integration and will start seeing badging events on the timeline views of the associated cameras (example below).
