deskbird's calendar sync integration connects your workplace with Google Workspace or Microsoft 365. You can sync meeting room bookings, schedule statuses, or both — keeping everything in one place and reducing context-switching for your team.
1. What you can sync
deskbird offers two independent calendar sync integrations. You can find both under Admin > Company settings > Integrations. Enable one or both, depending on your needs:
🗓️ User schedules (planning status)
Syncs deskbird work location schedules to your employees' calendars. Statuses like Office, Mobile work, and Absent appear as calendar entries.
🚪 Rooms calendar sync
Syncs meetings bi-directionally between deskbird and your organisation's room calendars. Users can book rooms in deskbird, and all bookings are reflected in Google/Microsoft room calendars.
2. Meeting rooms without calendar sync
If you don't need calendar sync but still want to manage meeting rooms in deskbird, you can create them manually:
- Open the deskbird web app.
- Go to Admin > Floors & Spaces.
- Click + Add area and select Meeting room.
- Enter room details (name, capacity, etc.) and click Save.
⚠️ Note: manually created meeting rooms (non-synced meeting rooms) cannot be synchronized with Google or Microsoft calendars. If you want to sync room bookings, follow the provider-specific setup guide above instead. A non-synced meeting room cannot be converted to a synced meeting room; in this case you need to re-create the room as a synced one.
