Avigilon Alta Access + Milestone XProtect Access
Powered by App-Techs. Available through Alta Apps.
Get the integration through Alta Apps →
App-Techs brings Avigilon Alta Access and Milestone XProtect together through a bi-directional integration that puts access control monitoring, video verification, and door commands in XProtect Smart Client.
Monitor access events, check door status, and review associated camera footage from the same interface. Operators can also send lock and unlock commands back to Alta directly from Smart Client, subject to configured permissions. When conditions such as a forced entry or a door left ajar require attention, access control events can trigger XProtect alarms for investigation and response.
Originally created by App-Techs for Openpath, the integration continues as part of the Avigilon Alta ecosystem. Available through the Alta App marketplace, it connects Alta’s cloud-managed access control with the Milestone environment customers already use.
What the integration brings to your operators:
- Video alongside access activity. Associate doors and entries with XProtect cameras to review access events with visual context.
- Door status in Smart Client. Monitor entry status through XProtect Access alongside your video security workflow.
- Access event alerts. Receive events including entry forced, entry ajar, and entry unlocked.
- Door commands from XProtect. Lock and unlock entries directly from Smart Client, subject to configured permissions.

How it works
The integration connects Avigilon Alta Access to Milestone through XProtect Access. Alta manages the access control system; XProtect provides the associated video and the Smart Client interface for monitoring access activity and issuing supported door commands.

- Configure the XProtect Access connection. Complete the integration setup in your Milestone environment using the documented configuration process.
- Associate entries with cameras. Link access points to the XProtect cameras that provide the relevant view.
- Monitor and respond in Smart Client. Review access events and associated video, check door status, and issue supported lock and unlock commands.
Built by people who know XProtect
App-Techs develops integrations that connect third-party security systems with Milestone XProtect. Our work on the original Openpath integration is part of that history: connecting access events, video, and operator controls in a practical workflow.
