You can generate a shared secret from a website such as https://passwordsgenerator.net. Once you have your shared secret, copy and save it somewhere safe. You need this shared secret every step of the integration process.
Your Members Portal default URL
You need your Members Portal default URL to integrate TopBrewer by Scanomat. You can find this URL under Settings > Website on the Admin Panel. Copy and save this URL somewhere. You need this URL in the first step of the integration process.
Integrating TopBrewer by Scanomat
Integrating TopBrewer by Scanomat is a three-step process:
- Creating the QR code that your customers will scan to get their drinks via the Passport app settings on the Admin Panel.
- Enabling the Scanomat integration on the Admin Panel.
- Sharing your Shared Secret with TopBrewer by Scanomat.
Step 1 . Creating a QR Code on the Passport app
The first step of the process is creating the QR code your customers need to scan to get their drinks started on the TopBrewer. We use the custom page feature available on the standard and white-label versions of the Passport app to generate this QR code.
Log in to dashboard.nexudus.com if you aren't already.
- Click
- Toggle on Custom page.
- Add the name of the tile in the Custom page title field.
- Add the following URL in the Custom page URL field.
https://{your domain}/en/integrations/scanomat/customerqr
- Replace {your domain} in the URL with your Members Portal default URL.
For example, if your Members Portal URL is kalkio.spaces.nexudus.com, your full URL should be https://kalkio.spaces.nexudus.com/en/content/customerqr?id={userid}
Toggle on Show in app home page if you want the Scanomat QR code to be on the home page of your app.
Add your shared secret in the Custom page shared secret field.
Click the Save Changes button.
Now that you have a QR code set up in the Passport app or its white-label equivalent, you can enable the integration on the Admin Panel.
Step 2. Enabling the TopBrewer by Scanomat Integration
Log in to dashboard.nexudus.com if you aren't already.
Toggle on the TopBrewer by Scanomat integration.
Select the dedicated product in the Coffee and Drinks product drop-down list.
Define a Maximum amount on account if you want to cap how much members can add to their next invoices in TopBrewer by Scanomat purchases.
Add your Shared secret.
Click the Save Changes button.
The TopBrewer by Scanomat tile now appears in the Available integrations section at the top of the page.
Step 3. Adding your Shared Secret in TopBrewer by Scanomat
During the installation process, your technician should have shown you how to access a specific menu to log in to your Nexudus account and share the secret key from the TopBrewer by Scanomat app.
If you didn't get to ask the technician how to access this menu, get in touch with TopBrewer by Scanomat's technical team via their contact form. They will help you access the right menu and share your secret key to finish the integration.
Once the shared secret is updated in TopBrewer by Scanomat, you're all set! Your customers can start using the app to get their coffee via TopBrewer by Scanomat. Their purchases are automatically synced in Nexudus.
