1.1.1 Introduction
Outlook Integration ensures that meeting room bookings made via DoorJames automatically sync with your Outlook calendar. This keeps schedules aligned across all platforms without manual intervention and prevents double bookings.
1.1.2 Prerequisites
Before connecting individual rooms, ensure that:
-
Global Activation: Outlook Integration must be activated at the organizational level.
-
Permissions: Only Organizational Admins can enable this setting. If you lack access, contact your organization's Admin.
1.1.3 Setting up the Connection
You can link a meeting room to Outlook when creating a new room or editing an existing one:
-
Locate the Outlook Connection field within the room settings.
-
If empty, click the purple pencil icon.
-
Enter the predefined Outlook email address for the specific room.
-
Confirm by clicking the purple check mark.
