These guides walk you through complete integration scenarios with step-by-step instructions and cURL examples.

Available Guides

Locker & Dock Integration

Build a complete locker or bike dock management system. Discover locations, set up RFID access, reserve devices, lock/unlock, and monitor device state. Covers both smart lockers and outdoor bike docks — same API, same guide.

Best for: Office buildings, transit stations, public storage facilities, outdoor bike parking.

Bike House (Dockless) Integration

Integrate with dockless bike houses and bike hangars — enclosed spaces with controlled door access and no interior storage devices. Covers the GUARD gateway, BIKE_HOUSE_DOOR entrance devices, allowlist distribution, and the access-control-only workflow.

Best for: Residential buildings, campuses, and facilities where users park freely inside an enclosed space.

Bike House (with Docks/Lockers) Integration

Integrate with docked bike houses — enclosed bike rooms with controlled door access and interior storage devices (lockers or bike docks). Covers bike house architecture (GUARD + BIKE_HOUSE_DOOR + interior devices), allowlist distribution, and the combined door + device session workflow.

Best for: Secure parking facilities, corporate campuses, transit stations with individual bike storage.

Availability Display

Show real-time device availability on maps and dashboards. Use the public API endpoint (no authentication required) to display locations and availability counts.

Best for: Third-party integrators, municipalities, campus maps, city dashboards, mobile apps, digital signage.
