timeware® × Brivo Access · Integration
The Brivo integration.
Cloud access control, cloud timesheets.
Brivo Access lives in the cloud. So does timeware®. The two connect directly, cloud to cloud: door unlocks stream to timesheets in real time and users stay in sync, with nothing to install.

✓
No agent, no server: Brivo and timeware® connect entirely in the cloud.
✓
Card, mobile credential and PIN unlocks land on the timesheet in real time.
✓
You choose which doors count as clocking points.
✓
User sync runs Brivo → timeware® or the reverse, your choice.
✓
Set up in minutes with a scoped API key you can revoke at any time.
Connect
Nothing to install. Connected in minutes.
Cloud-to-cloud over encrypted APIs, authorised with a key you can revoke at any time.
No agent, no server
Brivo and timeware® are both cloud-hosted, so the connection lives in the cloud too. Your network is not involved.
Scoped access
Authorised with an API key that grants only what the sync needs, revocable at any time.
Always visible
Every sync is logged with a live status, so you can see exactly when data last moved.
Managed by us
Our support team monitors the connection and runs syncs for you, part of the managed service.
Zero loss
Built so a clocking can never go missing.
Resume from last event
NO GAPSThe sync tracks the last event it received and works forward until it is current, after any interruption on either side.
De-duplicated
NO DOUBLESEvery event carries a unique key, so a retry or a re-send can never put the same clocking on a timesheet twice.
Quarantine, not silence
SELF-HEALINGAn event for an unknown person is held with the reason attached, and where the data allows, timeware® creates the missing employee itself and lets it through.
Questions
The Brivo integration, answered.
Is there anything to install?
No. Brivo Access is cloud-hosted, so the integration is cloud-to-cloud: no agent, no server, nothing on your network.
What firewall changes are needed?
None. Both platforms talk over encrypted APIs in the cloud; your network is not involved.
What happens if a site loses internet?
Brivo controllers keep recording locally. Once the site is back online the events flow through, de-duplicated, so nothing is lost and nothing is double-counted.
Which events come through?
Access-granted events from the doors you nominate as attendance points: card, mobile credential and PIN, landing on timesheets in real time.
How is the integration licensed?
Each integration is enabled by an annual licence, included in your timeware® agreement and supported as part of the managed service.
