Microsoft Bookings Page iFrame does not connect
Hi there,
following issue:
I am trying to integrate an MS Booking page into our website (Joomla) using an iFrame.
This worked beautifully for two days and now suddenly I get a message that "outlook.office365.com refused to connect."
I googled that this is not unusual, because some website prevent being loaded in an iFrame. However MS Bookings itself provides an iFrame HTML Code under the embed option. So it is intended to be loaded in an iframe. Therefore I don't get why this is happening and how i can stop it from happening.
Any ideas would be highly appreciated!
Many thanks and kind regards
Adrian

miTSichredenOur booking form is working too now. But still the same issue: it's in English instead of German. Settings are correct. Pratk Can you help? Matthias' form https://pinkelephantcoach.de/erstgespraech is also in English instead of German.

Can you try to to update the iFrame code from:
<iframe src='https://book.ms/b/<xyz@abc.com>'
to
<iframe src='https://outlook.office365.com/book/<xyz@abc.com>'.- Tobias_HeinCopper Contributorwhen I update to
<iframe src='https://outlook.office365.com/book/...@....com' width='100%' height='100%' scrolling='yes' style='border:0'></iframe>
it just shows a blank page...- DeletedSame. It still doesn't work. Also when changing the link.
Since end of May the embedded iframe doesn't work anymore: blank in website page/in firefox browser the error "Zu Ihrem Schutz erlaubt outlook.office365.com es Firefox nicht, diese Seite anzuzeigen, wenn sie in eine andere Seite eingebettet ist. Zur Anzeige der Seite muss diese in einem neuen Tab geöffnet werden."
When using the direct link the booking form is in English instead of German.
I had a call with Microsoft Business Support. He had no immediate solution. I should look at this thread till the Microsoft rep gives help today.
- Ryan GardnerCopper ContributorDoing this causes the embed to redirect and load the default booking page for my users.

Updated May 4, 2023: We have updated the rollout timeline below. Thank you for your patience.
The self-schedule URL for the Microsoft Bookings Calendar, which is the customer facing URL for your Bookings Calendar to create/update/cancel appointments will be changed.
Existing URL format:
"https://outlook.office365.com/owa/calendar//bookings/"
The new URL format:
"https://outlook.office365.com/book//"
Customers who have the old URL won't face any issue as the old URL will redirect to the new URL automatically. However, if anyone has any firewall / security restriction based on the URL, they will have to add the new URL format to their allowed list to ensure the new URL won't be blocked within or outside their org access.
[When this will happen:]
The changes will roll out in mid-May (previously mid-April).
https://app.cloudscout.one/evergreen-item/mc528980/ also on the official roadmap but can't find link right now- Tobias_HeinCopper Contributorthanks for the hint. but: even converted to the new link it does not work. Even if you call up the new link directly (without iFrame), the booking page is not opened.
And Microsoft offers the old link for copying / embedding still in in bookings.- AliahmadiCopper ContributorHello everyone,
I have the same problem. via direct link works, but iframe still doesn't work. Does anyone have a solution? Thanks

I have the same problem, have several calendars in use, but gradually all of them were no longer displayed.
The language setting is also no longer adopted, it is always English!
Is it possible that Microsoft has a server problem?
