What is Bookings in Teams

Bookings in Microsoft Teams lets you track, manage, and organize your team's appointments and calendars all in one place. You can create a Bookings calendar and add team members to it, build new appointment types, and create and manage in-person and virtual visits for your staff and attendees.  

For staff: 

  • Bookings calendar - Create a Bookings calendar and view your staff's availability in a calendar view. 

  • Appointment type - Set up different appointment types and add details like a title and confirmation message that attendees will see. Toggle on attendee options to let them join from a mobile browser, or to send them text message confirmations. You can also add an email reminder for your staff members and attendees about an upcoming appointment.

  • Schedule appointments - Select New appointment, choose an appointment type, and make it a Teams meeting or an in-person one. Details from your chosen appointment type get pulled in, but you can add customized notes as needed.

For attendees: 

  • Join virtual appointments - Attendees can join a booking by phone or desktop. Turn on your audio and video to create a more personal experience in the meeting. 

Create a Bookings in Teams

In Teams, select Bookings


Choose New booking calendar or Existing booking calendar.
Type in a business or department name — this name will be displayed in emails and used for the email address to send booking invites.

Add more details, and then select Save.


To switch to another Bookings calendar, or if you want to set up a new one, select the dropdown arrow next to your business name and choose the one you want.
