Assign a dedicated desk to multiple users

Hi everyone,


As you (may) already know, you can manage users with dedicated desks using Waldo. It's helpful to know when and where you are in the office, even if you have a dedicated desk.


We’re excited to announce that you can now assign a dedicated desk to multiple users.


In the example below, desk D41 can only be reserved by Emily and Janice. No one else can reserve this desk.



Previously, you had to create an area with just one desk, and allow the area to multiple users. This wasn’t very convenient.


Enjoy your day

Hello,


Now that you can have multiple people in the "Can Only be Reserved by" parameter, it would be really useful to be able to add groups into this (either Entra groups directly or groups made in Waldo would suffice). 


I can't see a way to do this with the user automation, and it would be really handy to say any of group "department x" can book this parking space.


Many thanks


Adam


ps. Thanks for giving the "can be reserved by" option the ability to add multiple people! 



Hello Adam,


You are correct; this can't be done at the moment. We're considering ways to implement it, but even then, these groups won't be dynamic due to a technical limitation.


Do you use the concept of areas? With areas, you can create "tasks" and automatically grant access to an area based on an AD/Entra group.
