How to use the setup wizard ​

The setup wizard gets a new library ready in four steps. It opens by itself after you create a library, and you can come back to it any time.

Who can do thisOwner, Org admin by default, or any staff role given Org Settings → Manage in Settings → Staff role permissions.

Open the wizard ​

  • It opens straight after you create your library.
  • To open it later, click Setup Wizard in the left menu: under your library's name, or under Settings. If you run several libraries, open the right library first.

Step 3: Create Time Slots ​

  • Select a Preset to start from a ready-made set of slots, or
  • Create Custom Slots with a Slot Label, Start Time, End Time and Price.

  • Quick User Setup creates a few demo members so you can try bookings straight away.
  • Add User Manually adds a real member with their name and email.

When all four steps are done, click Finish Setup.
