A group is a collection of bookable spaces (resources) that have the same access and booking rules.
Group access types
Groups can be Restricted or Open.
Restricted group: Only users who have been granted explicit access to the group can book a space in a Restricted group.
Open group: Any user can book a space in an Open group.
Typically, most groups for personal spaces in an organization are open, allowing anyone to book, but workspaces located in more sensitive areas, HR, for example, can be managed by restricted groups so only specific users can book them.
Good to know
- Groups manage booking rules and access.
- A group can span more than one location/building but can only belong to one country.
- A group can manage multiple workspace types, such as desks, parking spaces, and lockers.
- An individual workspace (resource) can only belong to one group.
- An unlimited number of groups can be created.
- To make the resources in a group visible in searches and on the booking grids, the group must be added to a location.
- Groups can be Restricted so they can only be booked by users who have been granted explicit permissions. A group is a Restricted group when the make bookings permission is not granted.
Before you start
Before you can create a group you must create a location.
