Using Workspace Reservation recommendation

Workspace reservation recommendation makes it easier for users to find a workspace to book, instead of manually looking through the reservation map to find an available spot.

When enabled, Workspace Reservation automatically recommends dates and desks for users to reserve a workspace. Zoom will display labels on the map to point out recommended desks. Recommended desks are generally based on the workspaces that the user frequently reserves and workspaces that are near others in the user's same department. Users can accept the recommendation or select a different date or workspace when they reserve a workspace in the web portal
