Login ID and Barcodes

Overview

The FUYL Smart Locker System can be configured to allow users to quickly authenticate at a FUYL Kiosk using either a Login ID or Barcode. These options provide faster access compared to SSO authentication.

Common Types of Login IDs

Examples of suitable Login ID attributes include but are not limited to:

• Employee number
• Student ID number
• Lunch code
• Student or employee ID card with a barcode

The term "Login ID" is used generically to cover any accessible attribute assigned to a user in a configured Identity Provider.

Benefits and Limitations

Faster authentication: Login ID and Barcode methods can be significantly quicker than using a username and password to authenticate.

Security trade-off: While faster, these methods are less secure compared to more robust authentication methods like SSO with MFA.

Using Login ID or Barcode

When a device user initiates a workflow at the FUYL Kiosk, they will be presented with a sign-in screen for either barcode scanning or entering a Login ID.

Barcode scanning: The FUYL Kiosk iPad’s camera is used to scan the barcode from the user’s ID card (e.g., student or employee card).

Login ID entry: Users can input their Login ID (e.g., employee number or lunch code) to authenticate.

The system is designed to be intuitive and quick for users, particularly in high-traffic scenarios.

Set Up Login ID & Barcode login

To enable Login ID, Provisioning must be set up and configured to map the appropriate Login ID attribute. See the SSO & Provisioning guide for more.
