Set where each meeting happens—a video call, a physical office, or a phone call—and even let bookers choose their preferred option at booking time. In Cal ID, the location is defined per event type, so different meetings can meet in different places.

​
Supported location types

Cal ID offers a wide variety of ways to connect. When setting up your event, you can choose from any of the following:
Third-party web conferencing apps must be integrated from the Cal ID App Store before they appear as a location option.
If you do not select any specific location during the event setup, Cal ID sets the location to Jitsi by default.
If you want video without wiring up an outside account, use Cal ID Rooms — Cal ID’s own built-in conferencing. It creates a unique meeting room for each booking, so there’s no third-party install step before it shows up as a location.

​
Multiple locations (attendee choice)

You can offer more than one way to meet for a single event. For example, you can let a booker choose between a “Zoom Call” and an “In-person Meeting.” Add multiple location options in the event settings. When the booker selects their time slot, they will see an additional required question on the booking form. They must pick their preferred location from your list before they can confirm the meeting.

Privacy option: show after booking
