Hey all, is there documentation out there for assigning an NFC tag to a matter lock through the new matter lock capabilities in the latest release? I’m also curious about the fact there is now an action for assigning fingerprints…

Thanks, I had seen that documentation. I guess I was more-so hoping for info on passing that hexadecimel string from an NFC tag to Home Assistant when setting these credentials. Or also, if fingerprint is an option as it is listed, how does one register a fingerprint?

What is the purpose of exposing those options if it is not possible? (Not meant to be confrontational, I'm genuinely curious)

Currently the cluster only defines the metadata format for notifications when a fingerprint/ finger vein credential is used to access the lock and doesn’t describe how to create fingerprint/finger vein credentials.
