It automates the scheduling process and ensures both you and your customer have all the necessary meeting details instantly. ### 📅 How to Book an Appointment Follow these steps to schedule an appointment with a customer during an active conversation: #### Step 1: Open the Chat Session Navigate to your Messages module and select the active conversation with the customer who wants to book an appointment. #### Step 2: Open the Appointment Form On the right-side information panel or chat shortcut menu, click on the Appointment Booking Form icon to launch the scheduling widget. #### Step 3: Fill in the Meeting Details Enter the relevant information for the session: * Customer Details: (Automatically populated from the active chat profile). * Date & Time: Select the agreed-upon date and time slot for the meeting. * Meeting Subject: Add a short title or reason for the appointment (e.g., *Product Demo*, *Consultation Call*). #### Step 4: Configure the Meeting Link By default, the appointment booking form is natively integrated with a Jitsi meeting link. > 💡 Using Alternative Platforms: If you prefer to use another meeting provider (such as Zoom or Google Meet), simply create a separate meeting link from your preferred external calendar, then copy and paste that meeting link directly into our appointment booking form field. #### Step 5: Save and Send Click Confirm / Book Appointment. The system will automatically generate the booking confirmation and send the meeting details—including the link—directly to the customer's chat timeline.
By default, the form features a native integration with [Jitsi](https://jitsi.org/) to generate meeting links automatically. If you prefer to use an alternative platform (such as Zoom or Google Meet), simply generate a meeting link from your preferred external calendar and paste it directly into the appointment booking form.
