Feature list

How To Do It (UI Steps)

  • • Admin: invite the user as a Host via Venues → Operations → Hosts → Invite host (or Bulk invite).
  • • User: open the invite link and accept; if redirected, complete the Host onboarding wizard.
  • • Open Dashboard → Meetings (Host dashboard).
  • • Link your calendar using Connect calendar (Google) or Connect calendar (Microsoft 365).
  • • In Calendar meetings, find the meeting and open Room Planner to select a space and complete Details.

Host dashboard + calendar meetings (cards/list)

Where: Dashboard → Meetings

Screenshot / video coming soon.

What it’s used for

Seeing your upcoming meetings (from your connected calendar) and linking them to meeting-room booking requests.

Configure

  • • Open Dashboard → Meetings (Host-only dashboard).
  • • If prompted that the dashboard is Hosts-only, complete Host activation first (see next feature).

Use day-to-day

  • • Use the meeting type filter (All / Onsite / Offsite / Virtual) to focus the list.
  • • Switch between Cards and List views to review meetings quickly.
  • • Use Refresh when you’ve just linked a calendar or changed meeting details externally.

Pro tips

  • • If you don’t see any meetings, link your calendar first (Google or Microsoft 365).
  • • If meetings still don’t appear, widen your date range in your external calendar and re-sync.

Host activation (admin invite + accept invitation)

Where: Venues → Operations → Hosts (admin) + invite link (host)

Screenshot / video coming soon.

What it’s used for

Enabling the Meetings dashboard for a user by inviting them as a Host and having them accept the invitation.

Configure

  • • Admin: open Venues → Operations → Hosts.
  • • Admin: enter the user email and click Invite host (or Bulk invite).
  • • Host: open the invite link and accept the host invitation.
  • • If redirected, complete Host onboarding wizard, then return to Dashboard → Meetings.

Use day-to-day

  • • After acceptance, use Dashboard → Meetings as the daily operating screen for meeting-room requests.

Pro tips

  • • Invite hosts early: they often need time to accept and complete onboarding before their first booking request.
  • • If the user is signed in as the wrong account, the invite flow will redirect them to onboarding to fix it.

Link your calendar (Google Calendar or Microsoft 365)

Where: Meetings → Host dashboard → Connect calendar

Screenshot / video coming soon.

What it’s used for

Linking your calendar so Meetings can display your meetings and sync details needed for room booking requests.

Configure

  • • Open Dashboard → Meetings.
  • • In Host dashboard, click Connect calendar (Google) or Connect calendar (Microsoft 365).
  • • Complete the provider sign-in/consent flow, then return to Meetings and confirm it shows “Connected calendar”.

Use day-to-day

  • • Use Disconnect when you need to relink or switch accounts/providers.

Pro tips

  • • If linking fails, check the visible OAuth return banner and retry after resolving the provider error.
  • • After connecting, click Refresh to ensure buttons and calendar-meetings content updates.

Request meeting room booking (Room Planner + Request booking)

Where: Meetings → Calendar meetings → Actions → Room Planner / Request booking

Screenshot / video coming soon.

What it’s used for

Turning a calendar meeting into a provisional booking request by selecting a space and submitting booking details.

Configure

  • • Connect your calendar so the meeting appears in Calendar meetings.
  • • Open a meeting card/row and open Room Planner.
  • • In Room Planner: choose Spaces, then confirm Details (Department + Cost Center are required for hosted requests).
  • • Select a room/space, then click Request booking.

Use day-to-day

  • • Track request status back on the meeting card/list and in booking-request history.
  • • Adjust space/details and re-submit if the venue/building team requests changes.

Pro tips

  • • If Request booking is disabled, check the tooltip: you may need to select a building/room, or fill Department and Cost Center in Planner → Details.
  • • Use Room Planner tabs (Additional services / Catering) if your booking requires extras.

Happy Path Runbook

Step 1 — Activate host access

  • • Admin invites host from Venues → Operations → Hosts.
  • • User accepts invite (and completes Host onboarding if prompted).

Exit condition: User can open Dashboard → Meetings and sees the Host dashboard (not the Hosts-only gate).

Step 2 — Link calendar

  • • Connect Google Calendar or Microsoft 365 from the Host dashboard.
  • • Confirm Connected calendar appears.

Exit condition: Calendar meetings are visible in Meetings and can be acted on.

Step 3 — Request and track booking

  • • Open Room Planner from a calendar meeting.
  • • Select a space and submit Request booking.
  • • Monitor status and respond to changes/requests.

Exit condition: Booking request is submitted and progresses through the appropriate workflow.

Troubleshooting

  • • If you see “This Meetings dashboard is available to Hosts only”, you are not activated yet — ask an admin to invite you via Venues → Operations → Hosts.
  • • If the invite link redirects you, complete Host onboarding wizard and then return to Dashboard → Meetings.
  • • If calendar meetings are empty, connect your calendar and click Refresh.
  • • If Request booking is disabled, check: building selected, room selected, and for hosted requests ensure Department + Cost Center are filled in Planner → Details.
