# What is WiFi Auto Check-In?

WiFi Auto Check-In automatically checks users into their **desk or parking bookings** when they connect to an approved office WiFi network at booking start time. This reduces missed check-ins and removes the need for manual action.

### Configuration Overview

WiFi Auto Check-In supports **two levels of configuration**:

##### 1. Building-Wide Networks

- A single WiFi network applies to the entire building
- Users are auto checked in when connected anywhere within the building

##### 2. Floor-Specific Networks

- Different WiFi networks per floor
- Auto check-in triggers only when the user connects to the correct floor network

### How to Configure WiFi Networks

**Step 1:** In the Settings module, click **WiFi Check-In Settings**.

**Step 2:** Enable the **WiFi Check-In** toggle button.
