How to schedule a meeting in Zoom
Zoom lets you schedule a meeting in advance and share the join details, from the desktop app or the web portal.
- Open Zoom and click Schedule
In the Zoom desktop app, click the Schedule icon on the home tab (or Meetings → Schedule a Meeting on zoom.us).
- Set the details
Add a topic, date, start time and duration. Choose your video, audio and security options (waiting room, passcode).
- Pick a calendar
Under Calendar, choose Google Calendar, Outlook or iCal so the meeting is added there and you can invite people.
- Save
Click Save. Zoom generates the join link; copy the invitation and send it, or let your calendar send the invite.
The faster way: share a link, not a time
Every method above has the same gap — you still have to agree the time first. Flip it: instead of proposing slots, share a Calenkli booking link. The other person picks an open slot from your real availability, shown in their own time zone, and the meeting (with a Zoom link) is created automatically.
Stop scheduling by email. Calenkli turns your calendar into a booking link people can use in one click — free, with reminders that cut no-shows.

How do I let people book a Zoom call with me automatically?
Connect Zoom to a booking tool. With Calenkli, set an event to use Zoom and every booking creates the Zoom meeting automatically — the invitee just picks a slot and gets the link.
Turn time into booked meetings
Calenkli gives you a free booking link: people pick a slot in their own timezone, answer your questions first, and the meeting lands on your calendar automatically.
