Integrate Bookings with me with Sigsync email signature

'Bookings with me' is an online booking service within Microsoft 365 that enables users to create a personal booking interface, called a booking page. This page allows you to manage appointments and meetings efficiently. The booking page can be shared with colleagues or external contacts / clients. By sending them a link to your booking page, they can conveniently schedule a meeting with you.

Bookings with me option is included in the Microsoft 365 business plans detailed here. Being a native Microsoft feature, it integrates directly with your mailbox, calendar, and Teams for a cohesive experience.

You can easily integrate your booking page link with Sigsync Office 365 email signature service. By adding your booking page link to your email signatures, you can:

• Allow others to quickly view your availability and schedule meetings with you.
