Bookings: How to extract data from your bookings calendar

Question

How can you extract data from your Bookings calendar?

Answer

Bookings collects data in a 120-day range to enable basic reporting on services provided in a calendar.  History beyond 120 days is not retained; therefore, extract your data on a schedule to maintain a historical reference of Booking events scheduled.

  1. Access your Bookings page from your Office 356 app launcher.
  2. Click the calendar option from the navigation menu.
