How to create your first space
A space is a room, office, meeting area, floor, lab, warehouse, car park, or anywhere with a limited capacity. Hot Desk has three different types of space you can create.
- Allocated desk space A space where people select the desk they want to be allocated. This space type can also be used for car parks with numbered parking spaces.
- Meeting space A space to hold meetings available to book for short periods of the day.
- General space A space to manage offices, floors, car parks, labs, or anywhere else with limited capacity.
Step 1: Open the Hot Desk app in Slack.
Step 2: Choose the type of space you want to create. In this example we will create a general space, to continue click the "Create a general space" button.
Step 3: Enter the name, location, and capacity of the space. The capacity will determine how many people are allowed to be booked in a single day.
Step 4: Select if you want to allow guests to be booked.
Step 5 (optional): Enter the names of users you want to be able to use the space. If you want everyone to use the space skip this step.
Step 6: Click "Create space".
Done! You should see the space you created and can book in. Want to add more spaces? Find out how to sign up to a paid plan.
