Our step-by-step guide describes how visitor can self-register by providing their phone number. This method facilitates a straightforward and secure way to create an account, leveraging phone number for initial verification and communication.
Overview
User Experience
To initiate the guest connection, the guest needs to follow these steps:
Step 1 : Connect to the designated SSID.
Step 2 : Visitors are greeted with a captive portal where they can input their phone number and accept the terms of use and privacy policy. Optional personal information (like First Name, Last Name, Country, Company, etc.) can be provided.
Step 3 : Guest click on "Sign up". Upon clicking the registration button, an automated process triggers an API call. This call generates the visitor's credentials and dispatches a text message containing their password to the visitor's phone number.
Step 4 : To authenticate, visitors must return to the portal, select the login option, and enter their phone number and the received password in the login form.
Additional Options for Improved Security and User Experience
- OTP (One-Time Password) Validation : enhance security by sending a one-time password (OTP) via SMS for the initial login or registration process. This OTP must be entered to validate the visitor's phone number and proceed with the registration.
- Auto-Connecting After OTP Verification : automatically connect once the OTP has been successfully verified. This streamlines the user experience by eliminating the need for manual login immediately after registration, fostering a smoother and more welcoming first-time visitor interaction.
- Credentials Required for Registration : specify additional credentials or information required from visitors during the registration process. This could include personal details, consent forms, or acceptance of terms and conditions to ensure comprehensive and compliant user profiles.
