How to Create Booking Links

Step 1: Sign Up and Connect Your Calendar

Create your account by signing in with Google or Microsoft. This connects your calendar so Don't Double Book Me can check your availability when someone tries to book time with you.

You can connect multiple calendars across Google and Microsoft Outlook. All connected calendars are checked for conflicts when someone books through your link.

Create Your Account

Step 2: Set Up Your Booking Profile

Choose a username and set your timezone. Your booking page will be available at dontdoublebook.me/username.

Your profile is public and shows your available event types. Only your free/busy status is visible—your calendar event details are never exposed.

Step 3: Create an Event Type

Define the types of meetings people can book with you. For each event type, configure:

• Name and description. Give your event type a clear name like "30-Minute Meeting" or "Coffee Chat" so bookers know what to expect.
• Duration. Set how long each booking should be—15, 30, 45, or 60 minutes.
• Availability. Define your available hours for each day of the week. Only times when you're free across all connected calendars will be shown.
• Video conferencing. Google Meet and Microsoft Teams links are automatically generated when someone books. No extra setup required.

Step 4: Share Your Link

Your booking link follows the format dontdoublebook.me/username/event-slug. Share it in your email signature, on your website, or anywhere you want people to be able to schedule time with you.

When someone clicks your link, they see your available time slots. They pick a time, enter their details, and the booking is confirmed instantly with a calendar event created for both of you.

Send Bookers to Your Own Page

By default, everyone lands on our confirmation page once they've booked. If you'd rather send them somewhere of your own, set Redirect URL after booking on the event type and we'll take them straight there instead. It's useful for a thank-you page, an onboarding form, or anything you want someone to see next. The address needs to start with https://.

We add the booking details to the end of your URL as query parameters, so your page can greet people by name or record the booking:

• invitee_name and invitee_email tell you who booked.
• starts_at and ends_at give the meeting time in UTC.
• booking_type_name is the name of the event type they booked.

Any query parameters already on your URL are kept, so campaign tags like utm_source still work. If you happen to use one of the names above, ours replaces it.

Treat these values as a convenience for what you show on the page, not as proof that a booking happened. Anyone can open your page with whatever parameters they like, so don't use them to grant access or record anything you can't afford to be wrong.

One thing to keep in mind: these details end up in your page's address, which most analytics tools record. If you run analytics on the page you're redirecting to, check that it's set up to handle names and email addresses the way you want.
