Robin search covers your whole campus. Use it to find people, desks, spaces, parking spots, iPads and any other resources available to employees, without looking through floor plans. Open search from the navigation bar in the dashboard and in the mobile app. It works alongside the map and sidebar.
Search respects your permissions. You need the right permissions to see people, desks, spaces and custom resources in the results.
What you can search for
Use the Search field to find:
- People
- Meeting spaces
- Desks
- Parking spots
- Lockers
- iPads
- Any other custom resource in your workplace
As you type, matching results show in a dropdown. Select a result to go straight to that item on the map.
What happens after you select a result depends on its type:
| Search type | Result | After you select it |
|---|---|---|
| People | Individual employee | The map centers on the person's location and shows their details. If they have a reservation on a map, select the card in the sidebar to zoom to the resource. |
| Spaces | Meeting room or shared space | Room details and booking information open. |
| Desks and other resources | Individual workstation | The resource is highlighted, with its information and reservation actions. |
