1. How to book a space using the map view
Booking via the map view (Workplace → Map) is the best option for users who want to reserve a space in a specific area of the office.
To book a desk, workstation, or a parking space straight from the map, select the available space (green circle) and press “Book now”.
Then, select your booking date(s) by pressing on them. You can use either daily or calendar view:
< Daily view
< Calendar view
Define your booking timeframe. If you want to reserve a space for a custom time period, use the “Other” option to adjust it. From the drop-down menu, select the time from the predefined intervals or enter your own. Press "Set".
Finish by adding booking details (optional step, only if applicable) in the "Notes" field and press "Book now", and you're all set. The confirmation will be sent via email. You can check your booking at Workplace → My bookings.
2. How to book a space using the timeline view
Booking via the timeline view (Workplace → Timeline) is the best option for users who want an instant overview of spaces' availability by hour.
To make a booking via the timeline view, press any empty time slot in the row of your desired available space:
You will be directed to the date selector. Proceed by following the same steps as in booking via the map view. The booking will be confirmed via email.
3. How to book a space using "Find a space" option
Booking via the "Find a space" option (Workplace → Find a space) is the best choice for users who have complex requirements such as multiple spaces, specific amenities or the interval of availability.
If you are a user looking for more information about space search options, read this article.
To book a space, access the "Find a space" search and specify your requirements:
The system will offer you a space that match your criteria. Proceed with the booking process, just as in Map or Timeline view.
As always, we will send you an email with the booking confirmation.
4. How to book a space using the calendar view
If you want to book a space using the Calendar view, go to Workplace → Calendar and press the + button which will appear when you hover on the selected day (if you are using the weekly or monthly calendar views) or your name (if you are using the daily view). Then, press "Book". Proceed with the booking process, just as in the Map or Timeline view.
We will send you an email with booking confirmation. The booking will also appear on your Calendar.
5. How to create a recurrent booking
Recurrent bookings can be made using all of the 3 options described above.
To do it, simply activate the "Repeat" field below the date selector. You will be requested to describe the recurrence settings (repeats every X day; week; month by day; month by week day), and its end time (at a specific date or after a number of occurrences).
The number of occurrences is limited to 30.
You can define unique timeframes for each recurrent booking. For example, one booking can be made for a full day, another - for morning only.
If the space you are booking is unavailable on the recurrent day / booking is disabled on the recurrent day, the recurrence won't be saved.
6. Incognito bookings
Incognito bookings are private - their details (booker's name and profile image, meeting title, etc.) are not visible to other users (except Administrators, Supervisors, and Location Managers).
To make an incognito booking, simply activate the "Incognito booking" toggle when booking a space:
