Sending one-time links using OnceHub for Gmail

The OnceHub for Gmail extension enables you to schedule meetings directly from your Gmail account. OnceHub for Gmail gives you instant access to all of your booking links without the need to change apps.

In this article, you’ll learn about sending one-time links using OnceHub for Gmail.

Section titled “Understanding one-time links”

One-time links are good for one booking only, eliminating any chance of unwanted repeat bookings. One-time links can be personalized, allowing the Customer to pick a time and schedule without having to fill out the Booking form.

When you create a one-time link using OnceHub for Gmail, the Customer’s name and email address is automatically taken from the email. When the Customer uses the Personalized link to schedule a meeting, they only need to choose a date and time, then confirm the meeting. The Booking form is skipped and they will not have to provide their name and email address.
