Creating a new building

Creating a building is how you set up your office in Mapiq. Each building you add becomes the anchor point for all office data bookings, sensors, room calendars, and capacity are all tied to it. Once it's live, employees see it in the app and it starts showing up in your Insights reports.

Create a new building

  1. Navigate to admin.mapiq.com > Buildings.

  2. Click on + Add building.

  3. Enter the following details:

    1. The building name

    2. The time zone the building is located in

    3. The opening days of your office

    4. Address (street and house number)

    5. City

    6. Country

    7. GPS Coordinates (automatically filled in based on address)

  4. After filling in all the details, the Map updates and you can create the building by clicking on Save.

  5. After creating the building, you’re presented with an overview page of your newly created building.

Filling in the Address line and selecting the address from the suggestion dropdown menu updates all necessary address fields accordingly, including the GPS Coordinates.

Behind the scenes

  • Nothing is live until you publish — A new building starts as a draft. Your employees cannot see it until you publish it.

  • Draft and published buildings behave differently — Some features only work on a published building. Sensors, for example, can only be linked to published locations, while you can already add email addresses to meeting rooms in a draft.

  • Pick the address from the list — Selecting an address from the suggestions fills in the GPS coordinates for you. Pick from the list to make sure the location is accurate.
