The integration adds your customers to Avigilon, gives them their cards and PIN, and puts them in the right **access groups** based on what they have in Nexudus. You decide which doors each group opens in Avigilon; Nexudus decides who's in each group. For the cloud-based Avigilon system, see [Avigilon Alta](/integrations/access-control/avigilon-alta). The integration costs **£50 a month per location** (shown in your currency), on top of what Avigilon charges. You need your Avigilon **server address**, and a username and password for it. ## How access works | Customers get access through | When | | - | - | | **Passes** | While the pass is active — including passes included in their plan, passes shared by their team, and the pass they're checked in with. | | **Resource bookings** | From about 15 minutes before the booking starts until it ends. Only the customer who made the booking gets access — not booking guests. | | **Desks and offices** | While the desk or office is on one of their active contracts. If a team's paying member holds the contract, the whole team gets access. | The access times on a group in Avigilon always apply. Make sure they match when your passes can be used — if a pass allows 9 to 5 but the group only allows 10 to 5, customers can only get in from 10. ## Before you start Create your access groups in Avigilon — they can only be created and edited there. Each group should include every door a customer needs — for a meeting room, that's the room door, the floor door and the main entrance. ## Setting up Avigilon 1. Go to **Settings → Integrations → Avigilon** and turn on **Enable Avigilon integration**. 2. Enter the Avigilon **Server address**, **Username** and **Password**, and save. 3. Choose an **Avigilon access group** for each of your **Resources**, **Passes** and **Desks / Offices**. Leave an item blank if it shouldn't open any doors. 4. Save. Avigilon settings ## Giving customers cards Open the customer, go to **Account → Access rights**, and enter each card number in **Access cards**, pressing Enter after each one. Nexudus sends the cards to Avigilon with the customer's Nexudus PIN. Avigilon doesn't check customers in from door events — the **Presence tracking** section has no effect for Avigilon. Use another [check-in method](/platform/access-control/check-in-methods) if you track occupancy. ## Related * [Access control](/integrations/access-control/overview) — how access control works in Nexudus * [Avigilon Alta](/integrations/access-control/avigilon-alta) — Avigilon's cloud-based system This documentation is built and hosted on [Mintlify](https://mintlify.com), a developer documentation platform.
