Template" on page 277.
Pass templates define:
l Name and a description: Used to identify the template in W-ClearPass administrative forms and views.
l Style: Boarding Pass, Event ticket, Coupon, Store Pass, or Generic.
l Colors: Foreground, background, and label. If no alternate colors are specified, then default colors will be
used. If there are alternate colors specified, then they will be used instead of the default colors.
l Summary: Short description for a voice-over.
l Icon: Displayed on the lock screen. A shine effect is automatically applied to the icon. To select an icon
image, it must first be uploaded to the Public Files area of the content manager.
l Logo: Displayed in the top left corner of the front of the pass. To select a logo image, it must first be
uploaded to the Public Files area of the content manager.
l Fields: For the front and back of the pass. The information shown on the pass is broken up into fields. Each
field is defined by a dictionary which gives it a value and label (which are displayed to the user), a unique key,
and optional information about how its value should be formatted.
l Relevant locations (GPS coordinates) and relevant date: Used by Apple Passbook to show a message on the
Lock screen where and when the pass becomes relevant.
Many settings for a pass template accept standard template code. This is the same template code that is
supported for print templates. This allows an administrator to specify either simple direct values or more
complex values based upon the evaluation of template code. All template code is evaluated at the time that
the pass is generated from the pass template, using values from the guest receipt as inputs to the pass
template.
A pass can contain both a low-resolution version (i.e. for non-Retina displays) and a high-resolution version (i.e.
for Retina displays) of each image. If uploaded to the content manager, the high-resolution version of an image
is also automatically included in the pass. The high-resolution version must be named with a @2x suffix placed
just before the file extension—for example:
Company_Logo.png (low-resolution file name)
[e-mail] (high-resolution file name)
Apple Passbook Certificates
You must have a Pass Certificate issued by Apple to be able to generate Apple Passbook passes.
As part of the generation process, the pass is cryptographically signed using a Pass Certificate. A Pass Certificate
is a special type of X.509 certificate issued by Apple through the Apple Developer portal. You need a Pass
Certificate to cryptographically sign the passes when they are generated and downloaded. This cryptographic
signature is verified by Passbook when adding a pass. Passbook will only accept a pass that has been signed by
a valid Pass Certificate issued by Apple. To obtain a pass certificate, you must have an Apple developer account.
You may register for a developer account at developer.apple.com.
For more information, see "Viewing Digital Pass Certificates" on page 274 and "Installing Digital Pass
Certificates" on page 275.
