Create an Identity group

The Lobby Base APP restricts access to a specific range of identity groups filtered by their prefixes. To start using the APP correctly, create an identity group starting with guest-, for example, "guest-Main Gate".

Enroll in a device group

The Lobby Base APP relies on Device Manager for configuration and software updates. To register the device to JCV Cloud, create a device group in Device Manager first. Then create a QR code for the device group. Finally, register the device by scanning the QR code.
