Using Workspace Reservation on the Zoom web portal
Workspace Reservation allows users to reserve workspaces in the office. Users can easily reserve available desks or meeting spaces either at the office, on a Virtual Receptionist Kiosk and Zoom Rooms for Touch devices, or on the Zoom web portal. Workspace Reservation provides easy QR code check-in to Zoom device-enabled desks, interactive maps, and desk occupancy status.
Note: When you reserve a workspace, a prompt will appear, informing you that you must complete the workspace questionnaire (if enabled by an admin) and check in on time for your reservation. If a questionnaire is not submitted on time or if check-in is not performed on time, then the workspace will be automatically released. This information will also be included in the reservation confirmation email.
