What you can do when NOT logged in

Here's what you can do on Inspire when you are not logged in:

• View maps of all floors of the building where your organisation resides. This can be used for:
  • Wayfinding:
    
    • Use the You are here blue dot on the map to locate yourself.
    • Tap a space type tile to view all spaces highlighted on the map.
  • Finding a space depending on the occupancy status red, amber, or green on the map.
    
    Note: Whether it's Wayfinding or Occupancy the default state, it can be defined when configuring Inspire.
  • Finding an amenity (a non-bookable space, marked in purple).
• Use layers for viewing the map as you prefer. The Spaces layer is always on, but you can turn off labels for cleaner wayfinding, for example.
• View more information about the space: picture, custom space information, space guides, booking policy if the space is bookable. Tap the space that you'd like to view more details for:

Booking a space on Inspire

To book, do the following:

1. Tap the Create a booking button.
2. Select your search criteria and tap Search.   If the booking time is set to NOW, you will be automatically checked in to your booking.
3. Select the appropriate space in the search results list.
4. Tap Book space in the map area.
5. Give your booking a name. You can adjust time as necessary but mind that at a different time the space might not be available any more.   If configured, you will have a QR code available on this page to move to Roamer to finish the booking.
6. Confirm your booking by tapping the Create Booking button.

Editing or viewing the booking on Inspire

You can view or edit your bookings only for today if you are a host (the corresponding chip will denote such bookings) or view the booking if you are an attendee. Here are your options:

• View without editing. From this view, you'll have options to edit or cancel the booking.
  
• Check in to that booking from Inspire, if you are viewing your booking as a host close to the check-in period (how close, it will be is defined by the booking policy).
• Edit your upcoming booking that is not yet in progress:
  1. Edit time. On Inspire, you can only edit the time today but never the date. To edit the date of your booking, use Flex (web) or Roamer (mobile) apps.
  2. Edit title of the booking.
