How to configure Firewall settings for Cloud Connectors
Complete the Cloud Connector and Sensors configurations
The first step in the sensors integration configuration is to configure and prepare your setup in the Disruptive Technologies studio.
Please check the steps on the Disruptive Technologies support page and follow the step-by-step guide.
Getting started with your first sensors
If your company already uses DT sensors, request that an administrator include you in the existing Organization. For additional information, please visit Distinguishing Between Organizations and Projects.
Create a service account
Now that you have prepared your DT configuration and claimed the sensors, the next step is to create a service account for Humly Sense integration.
1. Log in to the Disruptive Technologies studio. If you have multiple projects, start by selecting the project you want to configure. Once logged in, you should see a similar screen
2. Select the service account from the left menu under API Integrations, and create a new service account
3. Give the service account a name that you prefer, and click Add
4. Grant the service account a Project Developer role. Save the Service Account email as you will need it later.
5. Create a New Key Secret by clicking on the create icon, and the created Key details will appear. Make sure to save the Key ID and the Secret, as the secret will be shown only once.
Now you have created the service account, and you should have the following:
- Service Account email
- Key ID
- Secret
Configure Humly Control Panel Settings
After creating the service account in the previous step, you are now ready to enable the sensors integration from Humly Control Panel.
1. Navigate to your Humly Control Panel and go to the settings page
2. Check mark "Enable Sensor Integration"
3. Select Disruptive Technologies for the sensor distributor, fill in the email, key ID, and the secret you have created in the previous steps, then click save.
4. You should see a confirmation message that the credentials are saved successfully
Use a desk occupancy sensor for desk booking
From Humly Control Panel 2.5, a Disruptive Technologies desk occupancy sensor can be assigned to a desk as its presence sensor. The desk is then booked when someone sits down and released when they leave, in the same way a motion sensor books a room.
1. Claim the desk occupancy sensor in the Disruptive Technologies studio, in the same project as the service account.
2. In Humly Control Panel, open the resource settings for the desk and scroll to the "Sensors" section. If the sensor is not listed, click "Refresh list here".
3. Select the desk occupancy sensor under Presence sensor. A resource holds one presence sensor. Selecting a new one replaces the previous one.
4. Scroll to "Presence sensor booking", check Enable presence sensor booking and choose a booking mode. See Motion Sensor Booking for the booking modes and for how bookings are created and ended.
5. Click Save.
The same sensor can also drive Presence Check-in on a desk with check-in required. Disruptive Technologies states that the sensor typically reports a change within 10 minutes, so the booking and the release follow with that delay.
Troubleshooting
- If you have any issues with the sensors or the cloud connectors, please check the Disruptive Technologies support page
Disruptive Technologies - Troubleshooting - I have connected a new sensor, but I can not find it in the resource settings
Ensure you click the "Refresh list here" under the resource settings
- My desk occupancy sensor is not listed under Presence sensor
Desk occupancy sensors need Humly Control Panel 2.5 or later. On 2.5 or later, click "Refresh list here" under the resource settings. - HCP and HRD are showing old sensor data
Ensure the data connectors are enabled, and there are no sync errors. If you see sync errors, ensure the integration credentials are correct in HCP settings
