Skedda Tutorial

Skedda is the scheduling tool that you will need to use in order to schedule resources at Bakar Labs. Resources include conference rooms and equipment. First, you’ll need to access Skedda. You will find a link has been emailed to you. Follow that link and register your new account.

Access your account and Bakar Labs.

Go to the website: bakarlabs.skedda.com

Desktop App: Click the link above and follow the instructions.

And/or install the iOS App

And/or Install the Android App

This is the overall schedule. You can look at one day, month, grid, or list:

You can also filter out which spaces you are looking to book. The dropdown is in the top right corner (see above).

Right now, you will be able to look at these spaces:

Fume Hoods
Biosafety Cabinets (must have signed the SOPs first)
Conference Rooms
Equipment
Outdoor Event Spaces

You can also scroll through the different schedulable spaces via these arrows.

Open the dropdown to see the different types of space available to filter by.

Click on a time frame under the space you want to book to start your booking.

Adjust the time frame and click “Book” to edit the details.

Once you clock “Confirm Booking”, you’ll receive a confirmation email and if you’ve linked your calendar, your personal calendar will be updated and you can add invitees.

How to sync to your personal or work calendar or both!

Click the My Profile button and then the “Personal Calendar Feed”.

Under “ical feed link” you’ll see a link. This is personal to you and like a password. Do not share it! For google, you’ll subscribe to a calendar from a URL. For outlook, you’ll add a calendar from the internet.

IMPORTANT: this is a one-way link. It will add to your mail or calendar app so you can see it without having Skedda open all the time. However, you cannot book via your google or outlook calendar. The bookings must originate in Skedda.

Policies:

Conference room and outdoor spaces are booked and billed in 15 min increments
Reservations are required to use conference rooms or equipment.
You may cancel your booking up to an hour before the start of the booking. If within this time frame, please email support.bakarlabs@berkeley.edu.

For more information, please see the Skedda help article:

If the sync is taking too long, check out this video on how to set up a google script that makes google calendar sync with iCal links more quickly. The code for the script can also be found here.
