Hello!

From what I understand, this plugin will send the same Zoom meeting link to all of my clients when enabled, and it does not have the capability of creating a new Zoom meeting for each appointment with different meeting IDs.

I'm a hypnotherapist, and confidentiality is important for me to maintain. I can't have multiple clients with the same Zoom meeting link for the risk of one of them joining that meeting while I'm in session with another client.

Are there any plans in the future to integrate with the Zoom API more so that individual meetings can be created with each appointment?

Thank you!

Hi Michael,
Currently, OS Services Booking doesn't have feature to create different Zoom private meeting for booked timeslots. But we will find solution to implement it in future.
Thanks
