# Create or modify Badge Reader Integration event handlers

# Create or modify Badge Reader Integration event handlers {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Australia  
Updated March 12, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
Configure actions associated with a badge scan event and define the code to execute
when a badge is scanned.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn_badge.badge_admin

## About this task

Using the Badge Event Handlers module you can map badge event
handlers to multiple badge readers. For example, you may have a badge reader at your
San Diego, CA walk-up location and another badge reader at your Santa Clara, CA
location. Both of these badge readers can be mapped to the same Walk-up Badge Reader
event.

Badge Event Handler records are delivered as part of the Walk-up Experience
application-specific badge reader integrations.  
Note:  
The code entered in the Script field of the Badge
Event Handler form is executed using a GlideScopedEvaluator in the
BadgeScanProcessor.

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllBadge Reader IntegrationBadge Event Handlers.  
   The Badge Event Handlers list appears and displays any existing badge event handlers.
2. To modify an existing badge event handler, click on the name.  
   Otherwise, to create a new badge event handler, click New.
3. Enter a name for the badge event handler in the Name field.  
   For example, <kbd class="ph userinput">Walk-up Badge Event</kbd>.
4. Enter details in the Short description field, if desired.
5. Enter code after `// your code goes here` in the Script field.  
   Note:  
   The Application field is set to Global until you enter the code specifying Walk-up Experience application in the Script field and save or submit the record.
6. Click Submit to create the record.
