White-label

Passport also has settings to let you customize the colors used on the app. Nexudus uses the main color of your logo defined in your location by default if you're using standard Passport. You can change this color scheme at any time whether you're using the standard or the white-label version of Passport.

The handy preview screen lets you see what your new colors will look like on the app before saving your changes.

Access Control

This section is deprecated and unavailable for new integrations.

It isn't relevant to you unless you previously used it to let your customers unlock doors using the app and need to update some if the existing details.

Custom Page

This section lets you show a custom web page within your app to easily bring content from external systems. Providing a shared secret will sign each request to this page by computing a HMAC256 signature of the entire request URL appending the shared secret to it and placing the signature in the hash querystring parameter. Use the {userid} placeholder to include the ID of the current user in the URL.

Want to redirect users to a browser page instead of within the app?

Just add nx-link-new-window=true at the end of the custom page URL.

You can only add one custom page to your app.
