What is Microsoft Bookings?
Microsoft Bookings is a scheduling tool in Office 365. You create a booking page and share the link. Others open the link, pick an open time on your calendar, and book a meeting with you. The meeting shows up on your Outlook calendar.
There are two types of booking pages:
- Personal booking page: for meetings with you. This article covers the personal booking page.
- Shared booking page: for a team or office where several people take appointments.
