Instead of reading a code aloud or copying it manually, you can send a setup invitation email directly to the person who will be setting up the device. The email includes the registration code and a direct link to the check-in app. Check-In Devices admin panel showing the Send Setup Email button

When to Use Email Invitations

Email invitations are useful when:
  • The person setting up the device is in a different location
  • You want to schedule device setup without being present
  • You are sending instructions to a non-technical operator who needs a clear setup link
Unlike codes generated from the Generate Code button (which expire after 15 minutes), email invitation codes do not expire — they remain valid until used.

Sending the Invitation Email

  1. Navigate to Check-In Devices in the admin panel
  2. Click Send Setup Email
  3. Fill in the invitation form:
    • Email address (required) — the recipient will receive the setup link here
    • Recipient name (optional) — personalizes the email greeting
  4. Click Send
The system generates a unique registration code and sends an email containing:
  • Your organization’s name and logo (from your whitelabel settings)
  • A direct link to https://scan.idpage.link
  • The registration code to enter during setup
  • Step-by-step setup instructions
The email is delivered in the language configured in your organization’s settings (English, French, or Arabic).

What the Recipient Does

When the recipient receives the email:
  1. Open the link to https://scan.idpage.link on the device
  2. Follow the setup wizard (as described in Registering a New Device)
  3. Enter the code from the email when prompted

Bounce Detection

If the recipient’s email address is invalid and the email bounces, the admin panel will show an error notification. Check the email address and try again.

Security Note

Each registration code can only be used once. After it has been used to register a device, the code is invalidated and cannot be reused. If the code is used by the wrong device by mistake, you can revoke the device from the admin panel and generate a new code.
