To create a Microsoft 365 room, refer to this documentation: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/admin/manage/room-and-equipment-mailboxes 


Ensure to assign a Microsoft Teams Room Basic license to your meeting room.

  3. Click Add meeting rooms...

  1. Go to https://admin.hellowaldo.app then select Maps.

  2. Choose your map.

  3. Click Meeting rooms.
