Pass Update Manager

The Pass Update Manager enables users to create and schedule pass updates in bulk. Using the up and down arrows, you can filter each column in ascending or descending order. You can also filter the results by status: Draft, Scheduled, In Progress, Completed, Canceled, Paused, or Failed. Updates can be paused if they are ‘Scheduled’ for a future date and time and are not ‘In Progress’ yet.

Create Update

Steps to Create a Pass Update

1. Choose the Pass Template associated with the Pass records that you want to update. If you have multiple Pass Templates in your account, ONLY the Pass records associated with this template will be updated.
2. Choose a name for your update for internal use only. This update name will not be visible on the Pass.
3. Choose the type of update that you want to perform from the drop-down menu.

Update Types

Update Type	Description	When to Use
Pass Template Update	This performs an update on the entire pass template, meaning all records installed for this Pass Record will be updated.	Choose this option when an update needs to be reflected on all Pass records including installed, uninstalled, expired, voided, redeemed, and active Passes.
Update the Pass Expiration Timestamp	This will update the expiration timestamp on pass records associated with the selected Pass Template. When this update type is selected, you will see a box to choose a date and time for the new timestamp.	Choose this option when you need to extend the expiration date on a pass or expire passes that are currently active.
Update the Pass Status to ‘Redeemed’	This will update the pass status to ‘Redeemed’ for the selected data type. If an update to the pass status hasn’t already taken place, a field will appear on the back of the Apple Wallet Pass and below the Google Pay Pass saying: ‘Pass Status: Redeemed’ If you’ve previously updated the pass status, the existing field will be updated to reflect the new Pass Status.	Choose this option when the pass has been redeemed and you do not want the user to be able to redeem the pass more than once.
Update the Pass Status to ‘Expired’	This will update the pass status to ‘Expired’ for the selected data type. This update will cause the barcode to be greyed out on Apple Wallet Passes and read ‘this pass has expired’ below the barcode. For Google Pay Passes, this update will move the Pass into the ‘Expired Passes’ section in the App. If an update to the pass status hasn’t already taken place, a field will appear on the back of the Apple Wallet Pass and below the Google Pay Pass saying: ‘Pass Status: Expired’ If you’ve previously updated the pass status, the existing field will be updated to reflect the new Pass Status.	Choose this option when a pass is no longer valid after a certain time.
Update the Pass Status to ‘Voided’	This will update the pass status to ‘Voided’ for the selected data type. If an update to the pass status hasn’t previously taken place, a new field will appear on the back of the Apple Wallet Pass and below the Google Pay Pass saying: ‘Pass Status: Voided’ If you’ve previously updated the pass status, the existing field will be updated to reflect the new Pass Status.	Choose this option to invalidate a pass for any reason.
Update the Pass Status to ‘Active’	This will update the pass status to ‘Active’. Updating the pass status to ‘Active’ will remove the ‘Pass Status’ field from the back of the Apple Wallet Pass and below the Google Pay Pass.	Choose this when you have a pass or passes that are expired, redeemed, or voided that you want to update with a new offer or new balance, for example.

4. Choose which data you want to update for the Pass records associated with the selected Pass Template.

5. Add a custom Pass Update Notification to let users know that their pass has been updated and what exactly has been updated (ex. Your expired coupon has been updated to active!). Learn more about Pass Update Notifications. The notification will appear as a new field on the back of the Apple Wallet Pass and below the Google Pay Pass. The notification will also appear on the lock screen of IOS devices with the Pass installed. If you do not add a notification, the pass will still be updated.
6. After creating an update and clicking ‘Save Update’, you will be redirected to the Pass Update Manager page. Clicking ‘Save Update’ does NOT automatically schedule the update. You will need to click ‘Schedule’ on the Pass Update Manager page to schedule the update.

Edit Update

Editing the Pass Update will show all of the same fields in the Create Update page except for two new fields: Pass Update Created By and Pass Update Edited By. These two fields will inform you who created the update and the last person to edit the update.

Steps to Schedule an Update:

1. After creating the update, click the ‘Schedule’ button that correlates to the update you wish to schedule
