Step 5. Add room calendars to spaces

Pair room calendars with spaces

Pair Google room (resource) calendars with Robin spaces so that employees can book spaces, such as conference rooms, in advance and avoid scheduling conflicts. You can add room calendars in the Layout tool or on the space settings page.

Add room calendars in the Layout tool (recommended)

You must set up spaces in Robin before you can add Google resource calendars. In the Layout tool, you can set up spaces (if you have not already) and add room calendars. To start, follow the steps in the Layout tool guide.

Add room calendars on the space settings page

If your Robin maps are not complete yet, you can start to set up your spaces while you wait. Add the basic details, including the Google room calendar, on the space settings page:

1. In the web dashboard, go to the Manage tab.
2. Select an office building > floor > space. To add a space first, select + Add Space in the right corner, fill in the details and select Create Space. Then select the space in the list to open the space settings page.
3. On the space details page, scroll down to the Schedule configuration section and select the Scheduled option.
4. Select Google Apps.
5. Select Add a calendar. A drop-down menu opens with a list of the calendars that the connected Google account manages.

   

6. Select the calendar to pair with the space.
7. Select Save. Your current and future events sync with Robin. The first sync of all events can take up to 10 to 20 minutes.
