Change the Meeting Platform After a LinkedIn-Booked Call Is Confirmed

You used LinkedIn Scheduler, Calendly, or another tool to book the call. The invite went out. Then plans changed: your Zoom room hit its limit, you switched to Teams, or you consolidated to a single platform. Now the confirmed meeting points to the wrong place.

The calendar event is what attendees see. The original booking link is just how they got there. Changing platforms means updating the event, reconfirming everyone received the new details, and shutting down the old link so nobody books the wrong room by accident.

How do you move a confirmed call to a different platform?

Open the calendar event in the calendar where it lives: Google Calendar, Outlook, or whichever service received the original booking. LinkedIn Scheduler and Calendly both send calendar invites to your connected calendar, and that event is now the meeting.

Replace the meeting location or conferencing link. In Google Calendar, click the event, select the pencil icon, and change the location field or video conferencing option. In Outlook, open the event, click the location dropdown, and select a new Teams meeting or paste a new link. Save the event.

Send the update. Both Google and Outlook prompt you to notify attendees when you save changes. Choose the option to send updates to all participants. The updated invite arrives in their inbox and their calendar reflects the new link.

Attendees who accepted the original invite will see the revised event. No new acceptance is required unless your calendar system treats a location change as a reschedule.

Which old links must be disabled?

If you used LinkedIn Scheduler, the scheduling link expires automatically after the date set in your Scheduler settings, typically one to three weeks. No separate action is required to disable it, but you cannot manually revoke a link that was already sent.

If you used Calendly, the original event type remains active until you turn it off. Go to your Scheduling page in Calendly, find the event type, and switch it off. Existing bookings remain on your calendar, but new invitees cannot book using that link.

For Calendly bookings specifically tied to a LinkedIn profile button, you can disconnect the link by editing the Book an appointment button in your LinkedIn profile settings and removing or replacing the Calendly URL.

Test the old link yourself after disabling it. Try to book a new meeting. If the page still accepts bookings, the link is not fully disabled.

How do you reconfirm attendees without creating duplicate events?

Send the calendar update first. The updated invite replaces the old event in their calendar automatically. No duplicate appears unless you create a second event instead of editing the first one.

If you want explicit confirmation that attendees saw the change, send a brief message outside the calendar: a LinkedIn message, an email, or a Slack note. Reference the meeting date and time, state the new platform, and paste the new link.

Do not create a new calendar event and send it alongside the update. Recipients will see two meetings at the same time, accept both, and show up confused about which room to join.

Check your calendar the day before the meeting. If the event still shows the old link, you edited a copy instead of the original. Open the correct event, make the change again, and send the update.

What if the original booking tool controls the meeting room?

LinkedIn Scheduler with video conferencing enabled generates a meeting link when the candidate books. According to LinkedIn Help, Scheduler sends a real-time calendar invite with the meeting details to your calendar. The invite contains the link, and your calendar displays it to attendees.

To change platforms after booking, you must update the calendar event. LinkedIn Scheduler does not provide a separate dashboard for managing booked meetings; the calendar event is the only record attendees interact with.

Calendly works the same way. When an invitee books, Calendly writes an event to your connected calendar with the location you configured in that event type. Changing the platform means editing the calendar event, not adjusting Calendly settings after the fact.

If the new platform requires a fresh meeting room (for example, switching from Zoom to Teams), generate the new link in that platform, paste it into the calendar event location field, and save the update.

When should you create a new event instead of updating the old one?

Create a new event if the original event cannot be edited: someone else owns the calendar event, the event was imported from a read-only calendar, or the platform lock prevents changes.

Create a new event if the date or time changes alongside the platform change. Updating both fields in one edit can confuse attendees about which change matters. Cancel the original event with a clear note, then send a fresh invite with the correct time and platform.

Otherwise, update the existing event. A calendar update preserves the meeting history, keeps replies and notes attached to the same event, and avoids duplicate notifications.
