Setup

Five steps. Most teams finish in under 30 minutes.

1. Connect your calendar

  1. Sign in to the admin page and open Calendar.
  2. Select Connect and approve access with an account that can manage room mailboxes.
  3. Copy the App ID shown after approval. You need it in the next step.

2. Limit access to room mailboxes

Run this command in your calendar admin shell. Replace <app-id> and <room-group@yourdomain> with your values. After this, MeetingRoomBoard can read only the mailboxes in that group. 

New-ApplicationAccessPolicy -AppId <app-id> -PolicyScopeGroupId <room-group@yourdomain> -AccessRight RestrictAccess -Description "Limit room display app to room mailboxes"

3. Pick rooms

  1. Open Rooms. The list shows every room mailbox MeetingRoomBoard can read.
  2. Turn on the rooms you want to show. Only rooms that are on are billed.
  3. Set a location and capacity if you want them on the display.

4. Pair a tablet

  1. On the tablet, open the display address from the Devices page.
  2. The tablet shows a six-character code.
  3. In Devices, select Pair, type the code and choose the room.

The tablet switches to the room status within a few seconds.

5. Install the kiosk app

For tablets that must stay locked to MeetingRoomBoard, install the kiosk app with your device management tool. See Kiosk & MDM.
