What are time blocks, and how do I create one?

Use time blocks to temporarily block off periods when appointments can't be booked.

Time blocks let you temporarily block off periods when appointments can’t be booked. They provide flexibility around instructor or room availability without changing their regular schedule. For example, if a room is normally available from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. but needs to be closed for a few hours, you can create a time block to prevent bookings during that window.


Permissions

Permissions can be configured on user roles to manage and create time blocks in Admin and the Biz App.
