BoothBook

Last Update één jaar geleden

In BoothBook, each user can integrate bookings with their external calendars such as iCal on iPhones, or Outlook Calendars on windows PCs. Any calendar application that accepts an ICS file will work, by using your unique calendar URL from BoothBook.

Who sees what.

Each user has their own unique calendar link. Depending on their permissions they will see different information. 


Attendants - Using their own link attendants will see the upcoming bookings they have been assigned to. 

Admins - Using their own link, admins will see all upcoming bookings in their calendar whether they are assigned to them or not. 

Getting the information you will need from BoothBook.

1. Click your user icon

2. Click My Calendar and scroll to the bottom

3. Click on the link in Sync your Calendar, and right click and copy.
