Tempus integration

Tempus integration for Buzzshot allows players to pre-register online before they arrive to play your games. The booking player's information will be collected and if you have a waiver the player will be asked to agree to it. The booking player will then be asked to invite other players by giving their email addresses. Each invited player will then receive an email asking them to pre-register as well.

Before setting up the Tempus integration you should edit the invite emails sent out by going to the Emails section in the admin settings. You'll want to edit the "Buzzshot to Player invite" email (sent to the player who booked) and "Player to Player invite" email (sent to players that the booking player invites).

Please note that only bookings made from the time you activate the integration will appear in Buzzshot. Existing bookings from before you set it up will not show up.

Setting up

Double-check your timezone in buzzshot

Before connecting your booking system please do double-check that the your timezone is set correctly in your Buzzshot account (this helps ensure booking times will sync correctly when you do connect your booking system).

Getting your Tempus connection code

First you'll need some information from Tempus

  1. Log into your Tempus account then select Settings from the side menu and go to *Buzzshot integration
  2. Copy the connection code it gives you to your clipboard

Connecting in Buzzshot

This part tells Buzzshot about Tempus using the code collected in the previous part.

  1. Log into the Buzzshot Admin page and click Settings then Integrations
  2. Click Connect next to the Tempus integration
  3. Paste in the connection code you got from Tempus above
  4. After connecting Tempus you'll be asked to match up rooms, select a Buzzshot room for each Tempus room. If you add rooms to Buzzshot or rooms to Tempus you'll need to revisit this page in the future.
  5. You will be taken back to the Integration page.

Congratulations! Buzzshot is now integrated with Tempus.

Testing it works

Once connected, your booking system will notify Buzzshot of any new bookings made via your website, and a group will be created automatically in Buzzshot against the correct date, room and timeslot and the bookers name will be added as player one. To ensure your integration is working exactly as you expect we recommend you make a test PAID booking via your own website. If everything is working correctly your test booking will appear in Buzzshot as expected and you as the booker will get to experience exactly what your customers will.

Note: Any bookings made before the integration was connected won't appear in Buzzshot automatically because your booking system has not told Buzzshot about them. However, whenever a booking is cancelled or updated in your booking system, it will then appear/refresh in Buzzshot. If you wish to get existing bookings into Buzzshot the easiest way is to update them in your booking system.

Finding pre-registered teams

Teams who have pre-registered will show up in the Buzzshot app with their details already present, tap on a team to open the team edit screen and allow other players not already present to add themselves. By default the Buzzshot app will not show teams booked in for future days but you can turn this on from the side menu.
