Steps

  1. Set up an API user account in Envoy and use the OAuth2 password grant to authenticate
  2. Register a synchronous webhook endpoint for the sign-in event
  3. When Envoy calls your endpoint at visitor sign-in, evaluate the visitor and return an approve/deny response before sign-in completes
  4. Use the invites API to pre-create expected visitor invites so your webhook logic can match against them
  5. Test with a non-production location before enabling org-wide
