Personal Room: Claim your desk with privacy controls

Personal rooms are like having your own desk in Cosmos. You can personalise it, control who can join you, and make it truly yours.

Why use a personal room

  • Belonging: Claim your spot and feel part of the team
  • Visibility: Teammates can see if you're at your desk (available) or away
  • Quick navigation: Return to your home base with one click from anywhere
  • Automatic spawning: Join Cosmos directly at your desk every time
  • Personalisation: Add customisations to make your desk feel like home

How to set up your personal room

1. Navigate to the meeting room you want to claim as your desk

2. Click Set Home in the bottom right toolbar

Once set, the room name will change to "[Your Name]'s Room" for everyone in your space.

Control who can join your room

Set room access to manage availability at your desk:

  1. Open: Anyone can join your room and the call will start automatically. Perfect for collaboration hours when you're available for quick chats.
  2. Knock Required: People need to knock before entering your room. You'll receive a notification and can accept or deny their entry request. Great for when you're working but open to interruptions.
  3. DND (Do Not Disturb): No one can join your room. Ideal for focused work sessions or when you're unavailable.

To change your room access:

1. Go to your personal room

2. Click on the Room Settings icon

3. Select your preferred access level


How to return to your room

1. From anywhere in Cosmos, click Go Home in the bottom toolbar

2. You'll instantly teleport back to your personal room

Perfect for quickly returning to your desk after meetings or conversations.
