About Envoy
Iru reads visitor entry logs, invites, locations, and employee directory metadata via Envoy’s API using OAuth 2.0 (authorization code). Typical scopes includeentry_logs.read, invites.read, locations.read, employees.read, plus refresh_tokens so Iru can rotate access tokens without repeated logins.
How It Works
Iru uses Envoy’s OAuth 2.0 authorization code flow. When you enable the source, a browser popup redirects to Envoy’s authorization server. You sign in, review scopes, and grant access; Envoy returns a code that Iru exchanges for an access token and refresh token.| Detail | Value |

Prerequisites

- Browser popups enabled.
Connect Envoy to Iru
- Envoy
- Iru Compliance
Complete this tab before you enable Envoy in Iru Compliance, so the right administrator completes OAuth.
Sign in to Envoy
Open your Envoy dashboard (for example dashboard.envoy.com or the URL your workplace uses) and sign in with Admin or Global Admin rights.
Confirm Premium or Enterprise API access
Envoy’s developer APIs require a plan that exposes the scopes Iru requests. Confirm your subscription matches Prerequisites in this article.
Review OAuth scopes
Skim Envoy authorization and Scopes so the consent screen matches your security review.
Continue on the Iru Compliance tab.
