Tips to avoid unwanted bookings
To further protect your calendar, try these suggestions:
- Be careful with public sharing: If your scheduling link is in your email signature, consider removing it when emailing recipients who shouldn’t have access to book meetings.
- Make events secret: Hide event types from your landing page. This way, only invitees with the direct event link can book with you.
- Share single-use links: Use single-use scheduling links to ensure invitees cannot reuse the link for additional bookings.
- Set a limit for booking in advance: Control how far into the future invitees can schedule meetings by adjusting your availability date range.
- Change your event link: Update the URL of a specific event type to create a new, secure link.
By following these practices, you can maintain control over your calendar and reduce the risk of abuse and unwanted bookings.
