Creating calendar events for workspace reservations


Users can create calendar events for their workspace reservations. You can make a desk or room reservation, and the reservation will automatically be added to the calendar attached to your account.

When enabled by an account owner or admin, you can also control how calendar events (created by Workspace Reservation) appear by setting your calendar status as free or busy. You set the default configuration when you book a room or desk or during the booking process. This default setting (free or busy) for desks and rooms is configurable by users as well as the option to change an event during the booking process.

After enabling calendar events for workspace reservations, you can view calendar notifications. In the calendar notifications, you can view the desk name in the calendar event location, see an informative message about your workspace reservation in the calendar event body, and check in to/check out of your workspace reservation from the calendar event (if remote check-in is enabled). You can click the link in the calendar event that will direct you to the Zoom app or Zoom web, allowing you to view, edit, delete, or create a workspace reservation.
