Calendar Integration
Customer IT / SpaceIQ Onboarding Team
SpaceIQ can integrate bi-directionally with your organization's Corporate Calendar (as long as it's Exchange/Outlook, Office365, or Google Calendar).
With this integration turned on:
- Your administrator can connect specific spaces (typically meeting rooms, conference rooms, huddle rooms, etc) in SpaceIQ to the matching resources in your Corporate Calendar.
- SpaceIQ users can then see which rooms are free/busy based on their status in your Corporate Calendar.
- When SpaceIQ users book these spaces in SpaceIQ, that booking is automatically synced back to your Corporate Calendar so that everyone can see that its book in Outlook or GCal.
To enable great security and performance, the integration leverages a piece of middleware called Cronofy Enterprise Connect.
When the user books a room via SpaceIQ, the following occurs:
- The SpaceIQ user creates a Room Booking via SpaceIQ.
- SpaceIQ submits a booking request through Cronofy to your Corporate Calendar.
- Your Corporate Calendar checks to see that the user has permission to create a booking and that the room is free, if the room is free then it is booked and the resource's calendar is updated.
- SpaceIQ reflects that the room is booked.
The following integrations are supported:
