The new personal bookings page feature in Microsoft Outlook, also known as "Bookings with me", simplifies the process of scheduling meetings by integrating directly with the Outlook calendar. This feature allows you to create custom meeting types, set your availability and preferences, and share a link with others, who can then easily schedule time with you. Both parties receive an email confirmation, and attendees can update or cancel scheduled meetings directly from your Bookings page.

To access and set up your personal bookings page:

  1. Go to https://outlook.office.com/bookwithme/ or use the "Create bookings page" menu item in your Calendar on Outlook for web. After the setup, this menu item will change to "Edit bookings page".

  2. To create a new meeting type, click the plus sign in the Public meeting pane. This will also initiate the Bookings page setup process. You will then enter a title for the meeting type, which will automatically appear on invitations created from this meeting type. Then click "Save" to proceed. You can also customize your meeting with settings like category, description, location, duration, and whether it's public or private. There are also detailed timing specifications you can set up, such as meeting hours, buffers before and after the meeting, limit start time, minimum lead time, and maximum lead time.

The setup of the Bookings page requires some initial processing time. A progress bar will indicate the setup's status, which you can dismiss once the setup is complete.

Once the setup is complete, you can personalize your page and let others know it's available. You can change your banner image, copy the link to your public Booking page for easy sharing, share via email, or automatically add the link to your Outlook email signature.

The personal bookings page in Outlook on the web comes with two different views: the Organizer view and the Scheduling view. The Organizer view enables users to create custom appointment types, while the Scheduling view is visible to other people when an Outlook user shares their personal bookings page.

Microsoft began rolling out this new feature in preview to commercial customers in mid-June. It will be available by default to all Microsoft 365 Business and Microsoft 365/Office 365 E1/E3/E5, F1, F3, A3, and A5 subscribers, and IT admins can disable this feature for users in their organization if they choose.

Overall, this new feature is intended to simplify appointment scheduling for users, eliminating the need for third-party tools and helping businesses, especially SMBs with limited resources, manage appointments with customers.
