Master pages allow you to combine multiple Booking pages and Event types into one point of access for your Customers, providing support for a wide range of scheduling scenarios.
When you create a Master page, you can it set up so that Customers can select the Team member they want to book with, or set it up so that bookings are automatically assigned to Team members according to rules you create. Alternatively, you can create a Master page that combines Booking pages representing different locations or channels. You can create as many Master pages as you need to meet your organization’s requirements.

In this article, you'll learn how to create a Master page.
Tip
If you would like to generate one-time links which are good for one booking only, you should use a Master page using Rule-based assignment with Dynamic rules.
One-time links eliminate any chance of unwanted repeat bookings. A Customer who receives the link will only be able to use it for the intended booking and will not have access to your underlying Booking page. One-time links can be personalized, allowing the Customer to pick a time and schedule without having to fill out the Booking form.
