Overview
Calendly automatically includes a Zoom link when Zoom is set as the event location; there’s no way to disable that while keeping Zoom selected. To control what link invitees receive, you can set the event location to Custom or by setting your Zoom settings to send a custom link.
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Change Event Location from Zoom to Custom:
- Open your event type and go to Location.
- Select Custom and add a note in the field: “You will receive the Zoom link after booking.”
- Set Zoom to send your Personal Meeting ID after each booking:
- Sign in to the Zoom web portal.
- In the navigation panel, click Profile.
- Click Edit to the far right of Personal Meeting ID.
- Check Use Personal Meeting ID for instant meetings.
- Click Save.
Key Notes & Limitations
- If Zoom is selected as the location, Calendly will include an automated Zoom link in confirmations; this cannot be disabled.
- To avoid auto Zoom links, you must select Custom as the location and send your link separately.
- If you’d like to use your Personal Meeting ID, you will need to change this in Zoom directly.

Q: Can I use Zoom as the location but stop Calendly from sending the auto-generated Zoom link?
A: No. If you choose Zoom as the location, Calendly will include a Zoom link in the confirmation. Use Custom as the location to prevent this.
