How it works
Creates a shared list of places where sessions take place. Calendar events pick a room from this list instead of free text, so the schedule can be viewed and grouped by room.
Rooms are managed in the Rooms section of Settings, in the Scheduling group. The section only shows with the Manage events and their sessions permission (the owner always has it), and with it you add, rename and remove rooms.
Names are unique in the school regardless of capital letters and can be up to 100 characters. Removing a room doesn't change events already held in it. If you later add a room with the same name, the removed room is restored and events pointing to it have a room again.
Good to know
A duplicate name or another error shows “That didn't work. The name may already be in use.”
Unlike categories, rooms have no manual order.
