Setting up Edge Kiosk

This section of the manual covers information and the procedures that concern GANTNER consultants or Customer Service Engineers.

Setup requirements

  • Integration with Direct selling API 3.0.0 or above

    The Edge Kiosk uses the Direct selling API to fetch the offers on the Enviso Offers shop.

    Note

    The orders booked on the kiosk can be consulted from Enviso Sales > Orders (with the kiosk sales point).

  • The sales point ID of the kiosk

    You can find the sales point ID of a kiosk from Enviso Admin > Sales points.

    Note

    If sales points are not synchronised from Recreatex, you will have the option to create sales points in Enviso. See further Create Sales points

  • The Enviso Edge URL and the Admin account credentials

    The Enviso Edge URL and the Admin account credentials will be provided to you by GANTNER support. You will require them to log into the Edge Service for configuring various kiosk settings.

  • Stable internet connection at all times

    On the kiosk screen, the Edge Kiosk runs the Google Chrome web browser in kiosk mode. Therefore, a stable internet connection is required for an uninterrupted purchase experience.

Going live

When going live from the staging environment to the production environment:

  • Use the production environment API key and API secret key of the Authentication API. To get your production environment API key and API secret key, contact GANTNER support.

  • Change the base URL from the staging environment to the production environment.

    Staging environment

    https://api.staging-enviso.io/

    Production environment

    https://api.enviso.io/

Once in the production environment, your customers can buy tickets at the kiosk. Moreover, you can monitor the status of the key parameters from the Kiosk Manager.Kiosk Manager

Auto recovery always on?
