What is a One Time Link?
A Single-Use Link is a specialized scheduling tool tailored to your calendar, engineered to deactivate automatically once an appointment is confirmed. Diverging from both the permanent and regular scheduling links, this unique feature grants access to your calendar for a single instance only.
Why are One Time Links important?
- One Time Links are valuable across businesses, particularly for individuals who prefer not to share their entire calendar.
- These links automatically expire after each booking, giving you more control over your availability and preventing unwanted bookings.
- Once someone uses the link to book time with you, they can't do it again unless you give them a new link.
- This also prevents attendees from sharing your availability with people you don't know.
How to Share a One Time Link?
To share a one time link to your calendar:
- Navigate to Calendar Settings > Calendars.
- Click on the three dots next to your calendar and select "Share."
Note: You can now access the Scheduling Link, Permanent Link, One Time Link and Embed Code from the "Share" option in Calendar Settings
- In the sharing options, locate the "One Time Link" tab.
- Click on "Copy" to easily copy & paste the One Time Link wherever needed.
- To create a new link, click on the "Generate New Link" option to obtain a fresh URL.
What Happens After Booking
Once a booking has been confirmed and the link has lapsed, any subsequent attempts to schedule an appointment through the expired link will prompt users to reach out to the owner. This precaution guarantees that only active and up-to-date links are utilized for scheduling appointments.
