Message Center
What changed since this version
Updated June 23, 2026: We have updated the timeline. Thank you for your patience.
What and Why
We are introducing an enhanced bookable desk experience for Microsoft Teams panel based desk devices, such as Logi Dock Flex and the upcoming Yealink Linkhub. This update enables users to view at-a-glance desk availability and for visitors to reserve desks directly from the device, improving flexibility and productivity in hybrid work environments. Each device requires a Teams Shared Space license.
This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 561031.
Rollout Schedule

- View desk availability directly on supported devices.
- Reserve desks directly from the device interface when they are visitors that do not have an account on the tenant.
- Devices will prompt users to connect their laptop running the Teams app to do desk reservations or to check-in to a reservation.
