# Instagram booking link reply template

This recipe helps someone who asks to book find the actual appointment page. The incoming keyword receives a short explanation and your maintained scheduling destination. Keep availability, confirmation, cancellation, and payment in the system that handles the appointment. Do not imply that the Instagram message itself reserves a slot.

## Channel

Instagram: supported incoming interactions

## Setup

1. Test the scheduling page

Open the link as a new visitor. Check the correct service, timezone, and how confirmation is provided by your booking process.

2. Choose BOOK or a service word

Configure a matching incoming DM journey. Write a concise introduction that describes the appointment rather than promising instant availability.

3. Walk through the handoff

Send the request and follow the destination. Verify a real confirmation in the scheduling process before describing the appointment as booked.

## Example incoming request

BOOK

## Sample reply to customise

Here’s the booking page for a consultation. Available times and the confirmation steps are shown there.

## Next step

Open your booking page

Linkar sends the destination; your booking process confirms the appointment.

## Be clear about the service and timezone

A wrong scheduling destination creates more work than a slow reply. Check the appointment type and local time display, particularly for remote services. Keep cancellation or rescheduling instructions on the booking page and route custom requests to your team.

## Keep incoming message replies useful

Use the words people actually send, then choose a matching mode that suits the request. An exact campaign code and a broader question keyword serve different purposes. Test an expected request, a longer sentence, and an unrelated message. Review other active flows so the same incoming question does not produce several competing answers.

Prepared replies should answer known questions with information you maintain. They are not a reason to improvise product claims or make custom commitments. Leave a clear route to your team and respect the supported messaging window. If the destination changes, update and retest the reply before the next campaign.

Replace all sample wording and destinations. This is a workflow plan, not an importable or already-published automation.
