Manage Guest Access for Meeting Rooms

Enable or disable Guest Access for single or multiple meeting rooms, or even all meeting rooms that exist for a structure (i.e. country, city, building or floor), can be managed under Room Settings in Humly Control Panel.

When configuring Humly Control Panel for the first time you will have the option to set the default setting for Guest Access in Default Room Settings. This means that whenever you create a new country in Buildings &, Structures the Default Room Settings will be used.

Default Room Settings can be changed after configuring Humly Control Panel. However, the change will only affect thereafter newly created countries and their structures.

Changing a room setting on a structure level will affect all descendant structures and all rooms that has the structure as an ancestor.

For example, in this guide we change the Guest Access setting for a city. This setting change will affect all building, floor and room settings which are descendant to the city.
