# Scheduling Links

Share your availability and let others book time with you.

## Overview

Scheduling links let external parties book meetings with you by showing your available time slots. Create one-off links for specific meetings or recurring links for ongoing availability.

## Types of Scheduling Links

### One-Off Links

Share specific time slots for a single meeting:

- Select exact times you're available
- Link expires after booking
- Perfect for "let's find a time" scenarios

### Recurring Links

Ongoing availability based on your work hours:

- Always reflects current availability
- Reusable link for multiple bookings
- Ideal for office hours, sales calls, interviews

## Creating a Scheduling Link

### One-Off Link

1. Open the Quick Menu (`⌘+K`)
2. Select **Create Scheduling Link**
3. Choose **One-off**
4. Select specific available times
5. Configure meeting details
6. Copy and share the link

### Recurring Link

1. Go to **Settings → Scheduling Links**
2. Click **Create Link**
3. Choose **Recurring**
4. Configure availability settings
5. Save and copy your link

## Configuration Options

### Duration

Set how long meetings can be:

\| Setting \| Description \|
\|---------\|-------------\|
\| Fixed duration \| Single option (e.g., 30 min) \|
\| Min/Max range \| Let booker choose (15-60 min) \|
\| Multiple options \| Offer specific choices \|

### Buffer Time

Add padding between meetings:

- **Before** — Time before meetings
- **After** — Time after meetings
- Prevents back-to-back scheduling

Example: 15-minute buffer ensures you're never double-booked.

### Title & Description

Customize how your link appears:

- **Title** — "Coffee Chat with Sarah"

### Location

Set where the meeting happens:

\| Google Meet \| Auto-generate Meet link \|
\| Phone call \| Booker provides number \|
\| Custom \| Specify location/link \|
\| Let booker choose \| Multiple options \|

## Availability Settings

### Work Hours Integration

Recurring links respect your work hours:

1. Set work hours in **Settings → Work Hours**
2. Links only show times within work hours
3. Blocked calendar time is excluded

### Calendar Checking

Links check your connected calendars:

- Existing events block those times
- All-day events can optionally block
- Choose which calendars to check

### Minimum Notice

Require advance booking:

- "At least 24 hours notice"
- Prevents last-minute bookings
- Configurable per link

### Booking Window

Limit how far ahead bookings can be made:

## Multiple Scheduling Links

Create different links for different purposes:

\| Link \| Use Case \|
\|------\|----------\|
\| 15-min intro \| Quick calls \|
\| 30-min meeting \| Standard meetings \|
\| 60-min deep dive \| Detailed discussions \|
\| Office hours \| Open availability \|

## Tips for Effective Links

### Descriptive Titles

Help bookers understand the purpose:

- ✓ "Product Demo - 30 min"
- ✓ "Career Chat with Alex"
- ✗ "Meeting"

### Reasonable Buffers

Prevent meeting fatigue:

- Add 15 min buffer for breaks
- Longer buffers for intensive meetings
- Consider travel time if in-person

### Keep Work Hours Updated

Accurate work hours = better availability:

- Update when schedule changes
- Block focus time in calendar
- Review periodically

## Troubleshooting

### No Available Times Showing

- Check your work hours are set
- Verify calendar is syncing
- Ensure booking window isn't too narrow

### Wrong Time Zone

- Bookers see times in their timezone
- Verify your timezone in Settings
- Link converts automatically

### Double Bookings

- Ensure all calendars are connected
- Check calendar sync is working
- Add buffer time for safety
