# Booking links

Let users book a meeting from an experience: the survey Book Interview step with a Calendly, Google Calendar or Zcal booking link, or a button that opens any other booking page.

Two ways let users book a meeting from Jimo. The survey **Book Interview** step shows a booking schedule inside the experience, from a Calendly, Google Calendar or Zcal booking link. A button with a **Navigate to** action opens any other booking page, in a new tab if you want.

## Book Interview step

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Add a Book Interview step to a survey

In the survey, add a step of the **Book Interview** type. See [Survey components](/docs/experiences/surveys/components.md#interview-prompt).
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Paste your booking link

Paste a Calendly, Google Calendar or Zcal booking link in the step editor.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Publish

The step's primary button carries the **Book Interview** action. It is fixed: you do not pick it from the action dropdown, and you cannot remove it. When users click it, the booking schedule opens. See [Book Interview](/docs/build/actions/available-actions.md#book-interview).
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

#### Show the booking from a button elsewhere

The Book Interview step is part of a survey. To open it from a button in a tour, a banner or the resource center, build a survey with this single step, then launch that survey from the button with an action. See [Available actions](/docs/build/actions/available-actions.md) and [Chain experiences](/docs/build/actions/chain-experiences.md).

## Button with a Navigate to action

Use this route to open any other booking page, or to open the booking page in a new tab so users keep their place in your product. Add a button to your step, set its action to **Navigate to**, paste the booking URL, and choose to open it in a new tab. See [Navigate to](/docs/build/actions/available-actions.md#navigate-to).

## Verify

Preview the survey or the experience on your app and click the button: the booking schedule, or your booking page, opens.

## Limits

#### No new-tab option on the Book Interview step

The Book Interview step shows the booking schedule inside the experience and has no link behavior setting. If you need the booking page in a new tab, use the Navigate to action.
