Once you've created an appointment type, people book themselves through its public booking link. This article shows you where to find that link and the easiest ways to share it.
Copy the link from the Appointments list
Go to Appointments from the main menu.
On the appointment type's card, click Share schedule.
In the Share window, click to copy the link. You can also scan or download the QR code, or share straight to Facebook, X, LinkedIn, or WhatsApp.
Copy the link from inside an appointment type
Open the appointment type.
In the sidebar on the left, click Share.
Copy the link (or use the QR code / social share buttons).
The link looks like https://your-church.gracely.io/public/appointment/.... Anyone you send it to can pick an open slot and book — they don't need a Gracely login.
💡 Tip: Want to check what people see first? Click Preview in the sidebar to open the live booking page in a new tab.
What people do with the link
When someone opens the link, they:
Pick an available date and time slot.
Enter their name, email (required), phone, and any notes.
Click Book appointment.
The booking then appears in the Bookings tab of that appointment type.
Add the booking form to your website
Prefer to embed the booking form directly on your site instead of linking out? Open the appointment type, then choose Embed to your website from the sidebar actions and copy the embed code onto your page.
⚠️ Note: If an appointment type is Closed to new bookings, the public page will show that bookings are currently closed. Open it again from the sidebar (Open to new bookings) when you're ready.
