Managing admin roles in Workspace Reservation

Account owners and admins can use role management to define a custom scope for workspace access and permissions at the location or workspace level. Additionally, account owners and admins can use Workspaces location hierarchy and allow admin permission to be given at any location level, including the room and workspace levels. 

You can also set up workspace administration for specific workspaces.

Requirements for managing Workspace Reservation admin roles

• Pro, Business, Education, or Enterprise account
• Account owner or admin privileges
• Either a Zoom Workspace Reservation subscription, Zoom Rooms subscription, or Zoom Common Area Phone subscription

Workspace Reservation admin management options

Choose the management option that best fits your situation:

• Assign users to a role that includes the View and Edit settings for Workspaces Management. This role setting permits a user to view and/or edit all Workspaces settings across the entire Workspace Reservation location hierarchy. These permissions include the creation, modification, and deletion of locations (from the location hierarchy) and workspaces.
  Note: Assigning this role setting does not allow you to limit access to certain locations or workspaces.
• Assign users to the Workspaces Admin configuration setting directly in Workspaces Management Account Settings, or to a specific location in the Workspaces Management location hierarchy. Assigning a user in this manner permits them to edit all workspace settings for the assigned level of the location hierarchy. These permissions include the creation, modification, and deletion of locations and workspaces in the assigned location(s). The user cannot add or delete locations unless they are also assigned as a Location Admin in the centralized location management.

  Note: Assigning users as Workspaces Admins at the account or location level permits them edit access. It is not possible to permit view-only access.
