How to Add a Zoom Link to Microsoft Bookings Page
This process demonstrates how users can add a Zoom link to the Location field in a Microsoft Bookings page. The Zoom link used should be a recurring meeting link with no fixed time, allowing it to be reused without generating a new link for each appointment.
