SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Rock RMS administrators often need to look up scattered documentation across many manuals when configuring check-in systems, building workflows, sending communications, or scaling their instance. This Skill bundles 104 reference articles from 10 official Rock documentation sources into one searchable, on-demand knowledge base. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Check-in Administration: Covers both legacy and NextGen check-in setup, kiosks, printing, registration, attendance analytics, and advanced options like room thresholds and special needs configuration. - Workflow Automation: Includes the full Workflow Actions catalog grouped by category (AI, Communications, Finance, Groups, People, Utility) plus the Blasting Off With Workflows guide for building and securing workflows. - System Administration: References for security, API v1/v2 configuration, email/SMS setup, universal search with Elasticsearch, Business Intelligence, and hyper-scaling with web farms. - Use Case: An admin needs to configure barcode check-in with Zebra printers and set up a workflow that sends an SMS when a first-time visitor checks in — the relevant references are loaded on demand via the topic index. ## Quick Start Ask how to configure a Rock RMS administration task, such as setting up NextGen check-in kiosks or building a workflow that sends email communications.

Each action reference explains its configuration settings, filters, and typical use cases such as sending communications or updating person records.

Does Rock RMS support Elasticsearch for search?

How do I secure the Rock RMS REST API?

Rock API security is configured under Admin Tools > Settings > Security > REST Controllers, with separate settings for v1 and v2 APIs. The v2 API is locked down by default and uses granular permissions like Execute Read, Execute Write, and unrestricted variants.

Can Rock RMS scale across multiple servers?

Yes, the Hyper Scaling Rock RMS references cover web farm setup for multi-server installations, cluster architecture, and read-only database replicas via Rock Context for offloading analytics queries from the primary database.

What are the limitations of Rock check-in label printing?

Rock check-in printing supports only Zebra printers that speak ZPL, and labels are designed for a specific DPI (203 recommended). Mixing 203dpi and 300dpi printers or cutter and non-cutter models in one system is not practical.
