# How to connect ProDataKey

This guide shows you how to connect a ProDataKey (PDK) access control system to Guestway, so you can manage access codes in Guestway.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Before you start**

* You have the **Super admin** role, or a role with access to integrations.
* ProDataKey is in early access. It shows in the list, with the **Early Access** badge, only when Guestway has turned it on for your organization.
* You have the system ID and the cloud node ID of your ProDataKey system.
  {% endhint %}

## Connect the account

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Open the integrations

Go to **Settings** → **Organization** → **Integrations** and click **Create**.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Choose ProDataKey

Under **Smart Locks**, click **ProDataKey**. In **Integration name**, keep the suggested name or enter your own.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Connect with your system ID

Click **Access with API Key**. In **Api Key**, enter the system ID, a colon and the cloud node ID, with no spaces: *systemId:cloudNodeId*. Click **Authenticate**, then **Finish**.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

Guestway imports the locks of your ProDataKey system.

## Link the locks

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Choose the locks to use

Open the integration and its smart lock tab. Tick **Subscribed** for each lock you want to manage in Guestway. See [How to choose which listings and devices sync](/integrations/integrations/how-to-choose-which-listings-and-devices-sync.md).
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Link each lock to its listing

In [Smart locks](/reservations-and-operations/smart-locks.md), open the lock and link it to its listing or complex.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

## Troubleshooting

<details>

<summary>Why does Guestway say the API key has the wrong format?</summary>

The value must be the system ID, a colon and the cloud node ID. The system ID is a long ID with dashes. Check that both parts are complete and that there are no spaces.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Why is there no Open Door button?</summary>

Guestway cannot open ProDataKey locks remotely.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.guestway.io/integrations/smart-locks/prodatakey.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
