Visitor registration is available to all user roles (Tenant Admins and Regular Users have different views and permissions). When a visitor is registered, they automatically receive two notification emails: one at the time of registration and a second the morning of their visit.\n\nThe dashboard supports registering one visitor at a time, quickly re-registering a past visitor using the reinvite a past visitor search, or adding multiple visitors at once using the Paste a List option. All methods share the same visit details and notification settings.\n\nRegister Visitors on the Dashboard\n\nRegister Visitors on the Mobile App\n\nBulk Upload Visitors\n\nEditing Visitor Directions for Your Organization\n\nRegister Visitors on the Dashboard\n\nNavigate to the Visitors module and open any day-to-day management page.\n\nClick + Add a Visitor.\n\nFill out the Host Details section:\n\nTenant: Select the tenant the visitor is associated with.\n\nFloor: Select the floor the visitor will be visiting.

Supported formats include comma-separated (Jane Doe, jane@example.com), tab-separated rows pasted from a spreadsheet, and standard Name <email> formatting. The platform will infer first name, last name, and email from each row. If your site has SMS notifications enabled for visitors, phone number will also be detected.\n\nThe platform will review each row and display how many entries are valid and how many have issues. Click into any flagged row to see the details and make corrections. Required fields are based on your site's visitor settings, so if email is not required at your site, a missing email will not be flagged as an error.\n\nYou can also add individual visitors manually within the same paste list flow using the add visitor option. Select the visitor type (Visitor or Vendor). This applies to all visitors in the list.\n\nWatchlist matching does not display inline during the paste list flow.
