Hi Kelvin_Lim2395,

This is a by design behavior for additional security. This verification code is not required for an user who is logged into a Microsoft account. Hope this info helps. If this is an enhancement request, will submit this ask for the product prioritization.

 

Thank you!

I understand the security desires here but for non technical guest users, requiring a verification code might scare them away. We have used Calendly forever and want to switch over to Bookings but this verification code functionality is a barrier to adoption. Can it be added to the product as optional? Sreereji

    Same here, customer experience is terrible with the verification code.

      There should be an option to disable this feature. It's a roadblock in the name of a feature.
      No other popular scheduling apps are authenticating users and it's working fine for them.
