AeroHive WiFi tokens

In order to integrate AeroHive with Vizito you will need the following things:

  • Vizito account
  • AeroHive developer account
  • Access to your AeroHive Manager NG platform. If you are using an older platform, please contact your reseller to upgrade.

Before starting, you must request a AeroHive developer account. You can do this by navigating here and filling in the form: https://developer.aerohive.com

Once you have a developer account, log in to the developer website and create a new application in order to get your Client secret and Client ID:

developer 2 copy

developer 3 copy

On the dashboard, click on Create new application:

developer 4 copy

Fill in a name and description for the application.

developer 5 copy

Click on the API Developer Application name that you just created:

developer 6 copy

Set the Redirect URL to https://127.0.0.1. Copy or note down the Client ID and Client Secret and click on Submit:

developer 7 copy

Next you need to login to the AeroHive Manager NG platform. Go to https://cloud.aerohive.com and log in with your credentials (these are not the same as the developer credentials):

Now you will see the dashboard. Go to your profile and click on Global Settings:

platform 2 copy

Select API Token Management:

Platform 3 copy

Add a new API Access Token by clicking on the + icon:

Platform 4 copy

Enter the Client ID that you noted down earlier when creating the Application on the developer portal:

Platform 5 copy

You will get a message displaying a new token. Copy this token:

platform 6 copy

Next add a new group for Vizito by going to the menu Configure > Users > User Groups:

platform 7 copy

Click on Add and enter the details of this group:

platform 8 copy

Here you will be able to specify things like the length and complexity of the key, as well as define what visitors have access to and what not:

platform 9 copy

Next we need to get the Group ID from Aerohive. Using Google Chrome, go back to the overview of the User Groups and right click on the name of the User Group. Select Inspect. You will see a div with role=“row”. Copy the ID of the expanded div with role=“row”. It looks like this:

dgrid_26-row-11262XXXXXXXXXXX

The part behind the “-” is your User Group ID. In this example this is : 11262XXXXXXXXXXX .

Now fill in the integration details on the https://backoffice.vizito.be website:

aerohive

Client Secret and Client ID is the information that you got from the developer website.

Auth Key is the API token that was generated on the AeroHive Manager NG platform.

Group ID is the User Group ID that you created.

Owner ID can be found in the AeroHive Manager NG platform when you click on your profile and then click on About HiveManager. Copy the value for VHM Id.

Click on Save.

Tip: once integration is complete, you can use the %aerohive_username% and %aerohive_password% in your badge template or welcome message.
