We've created this "Get Started" guide to help you set up your location and build on the basics. Explore how to save time and provide excellent service to members with your new app.
Introduction
To begin, familiarize yourself with several key concepts:
Location — the specific physical place or address where your space site is situated. Location settings apply to a particular location only. Only the location administrator can change location settings.
Network — the collection of locations your company manages in the unique instance of your app. Changes apply immediately to all locations and branded mobile apps. Only the owner has access to and can manage Network Settings.
1. Set Up Your App
Total time: 10 minutes
You'll need the following:
Your business's brand materials (square logo, colors).
Access your domain name's control panel to create a custom domain.
Your privacy policy and terms of use text.
Your app description.
Your Twilio integration details (if necessary).
Steps to set up your app:
The owner needs to log in to the web app. If you forgot the web app URL, log in through our website.
Go to (...) More > Network Settings page in the app.
You will be redirected to our marketing website, where you can set up custom domain, an email footer, customize your app's look, and paste your policies' text.
Since you are processing personal data, various country laws and app publishing platforms require you to disclose privacy practices and forbid questionable content and behavior. You must add a privacy policy and terms of use to your application.
2. Set Up Locations
Total time: 15 minutes
You'll need the following:
Basic location information (name, address, description, contacts, photo, or video).
Location guides (e.g., parking, pets, printing)
Your business's billing and bank details.
Local sales or VAT tax rate.
Steps to set up the locations:
Complete the Information page (the "Information" icon next to the location's name)
3. Go through the Settings of your locations (the "Settings" icon next to each location's name) to set general settings, enable features you'll launch first, and connect integrations such as a payment gateway.
3. Set Up Modules
Total time: 30 minutes
You'll need the following:
Cover photos for rooms, desks, offices, and any other services you provide.
Prices for your products and plans.
Steps to set up the modules:
Go to Locations > Settings > Rooms and add your rooms.
Go to Locations > Settings > Desks and add your desks.
Go to Locations > Settings > Offices and add your offices.

To test what your web app looks like for members or nonmembers, explore it from the user's side.
To improve your customers' experience, you can purchase various add-ons for the existing modules, such as floor plans, a room display app, a reception app, and others.
