Checking in and out of a workspace reservation


You can easily view your upcoming reservations and check in to and out of your workspace reservations.

If the Workspace Check-In and Check-Out feature is enabled, you must check in to keep your reservation. If you do not check in within a configurable number of minutes after the scheduled start time, the workspace reservation is released from the scheduled time, and the workspace will be made available for others to use.

Starting a scheduled meeting, starting an instant meeting, making a phone call, and starting a screen share count as checking in and do not require a separate check-in. For desks and reservation-only room workspaces, QR codes can be printed and placed on workspaces for check-in. 

In addition, if Automatic Reservations Check in through USB is enabled, users can connect their device via USB-C to the booking device, and automatically check-in for their reservation if they are logged into the Zoom application. 

If you want to leave your reservation earlier, you can also check out before the scheduled time ends, which shortens the calendar event and makes that unused time available again for others to use.
