Add a resource
Create a room or equipment queue, set its minutes per person, and print its door sign.
Requires Location Admin
Open the page
- Classic menus: select Rooms & equipment in the sidebar. It's also linked from the How people are served here card at the top of Settings (Add rooms → / Manage rooms →).
- Queue screen: select Set up, then Add rooms → (or Manage rooms →) on the 🚪 Rooms & equipment row of How people are served here. The page is Set up → Rooms & equipment. You can also use 🚪 + Add rooms in the Live tab bar (before you have any), or Edit rooms → on the Live → Rooms tab.
The page opens with three steps: 1 · Add a room or item → 2 · Print its door sign → 3 · Visitors scan and wait.
Add one
- Select + Add (or scroll to Add a room or item).
- Enter a Name customers will recognize — "Study Room A", "3D Printer" — and Minutes per person (60 by default): how long each person gets before it frees up automatically. You can extend individual reservations later.
- Select + Add.
The room gets its own card with its QR code and a Door sign & QR → link. That page has the printable sign (Open printable page, Download PDF, Download PNG, Download SVG), Copy link, and code to add a reserve button to your website. Step 2 at the top, Download all door signs (PDF), gives you every room's sign in one file — one page per room, plus the shared "any free room" sign first when that's on.
Change it later
- Classic menus: expand Edit on the room's card.
- Queue screen: the fields are right on each card under Set up → Rooms & equipment.
You can change the Name, Minutes per person, and a short Code (up to 6 letters/numbers, used
in reference codes like 260730-SRA-001; left blank it's chosen automatically), then select Save.
To pause a room, use Disable (classic menus) or Turn off (Queue screen). A turned-off room takes no new joins and finishes its current reservation; anyone still waiting for it is cancelled and emailed. Use Enable / Turn on to bring it back.
If the QR code leaks (someone photographs it and reserves from home): open the room's Door sign & QR page and use Rotate QR code. The old code and its door-screen link stop working instantly (a saved copy shows "this code has been replaced"), current reservations keep going, and you land on the new sign to print.
Deleting: Delete resource (classic menus) or Delete (Queue screen) works only while the room has no reservation history — handy for test rooms or mistakes. Once real reservations exist, turn it off instead; its past reservations stay searchable.
Plan limits
Your plan caps how many resources a location can have, how many people can wait for each one, and how many reservations it can take per day (separate from your main check-ins). The page shows "N/M used". See Plans, quotas & limits for the numbers.
Test it
Scan the room's QR with your phone, join with your own email, and watch it assign to you (as the only person in line, it's immediate). Then select I'm done — release it on your status page.
