Send Automatic Email After Meetings Via Bookings
JenAH- Initially I had thought Power Automate as well, after some testing yesterday I just realized today as I was about to respond that I didn't have the email address of the person booking the appointment; the person you want to follow-up with 😵.
In any case, what we know so far is:
- Bookings does not have a Power Automate connector
- We do not have a way to GET data directly
- Booking appointments go to an Outlook calendar
- We can GET data but, we do not get the email address of the person booking
The technical stuff
I'm not going to take credit for this as I had to reach out to the Power Automate Community (👀 https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/General-Power-Automate/Get-events-V4-Filter-Query/m-p/1226247/highlight/true#M75801); essentially you can use https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/connectors/office365/#get-events-(v4) to filter all the calendar events by 'organizer' name
What you GET from the event doesn't include the email of the person booking however...
Conclusion
I am not aware of a way to send emails programmatically to follow-up with a Booking.

- Thanks so much for doing the work and determining it's not yet possible to do a follow-up with Booking. I'd love this functionality to be added to Bookings.
- You can do this from each staff account or license the shared mailbox behind Bookings. Not having a connector in Power Automate makes this a much more significant undertaking than it should be but it is possible.
- Please share how you can accomplish this on a schedule as the OP requests. Or are you saying follow-up manually via the Bookings Calendar interface?
