Add Pre-Meeting Block

Does Zoom Scheduler have a feature in which you can set an amount of time to block in which a client can schedule a meeting? For Example, I would like to block clients from scheduling meetings within 4 hours from now. I believe that Calendly had this feature. The goal here is to block the ability to schedule last minute meetings. Thanks all!

Hello,

 

This is possible with Zoom scheduler. You can find out more about this feature here: https://support.zoom.com/hc/en/article?id=zm_kb&sysparm_article=KB0058092

 

There is an option within Scheduler when creating a schedule, under availability near the bottom will be a place called 'buffer'. You can user this to add in a 'Buffer time between schedules' with a certain amount of minutes so that you can block off time between meetings.

 

I hope this helps and if so please mark as the solution!

 

Thank you,
Jake

Hey Jake, I was able to solve this via "Set minimum time before a schedule starts that attendees can book." Thanks for getting back to me!
