Enabling email notifications and adding meeting details
Zoho Bookings sends a default email to your staff and your customers whenever an online meeting booking is made (if you have enabled notifications). However, this email will not contain the link to start or join the meeting. To share the meeting link with your staff and customers via email, you need to enable notifications for the related workspace and add the meeting information variable within the email template.
