# Share or change your link

> Copy your booking link to send it to your students, or change the name that appears in it.

Your booking link is the page where your students pick a day and time to book a session with you. You'll find it in **My link**, ready to copy.

You have two links, and both carry your name:

* **Student portal** (`https://your-name.smartcookieapp.com`): your students choose to book or log in to their portal.
* **Booking link** (`https://your-name.smartcookieapp.com/book`): goes straight to booking.

If you only want them to book, send the **Booking link**. The student portal is their personal space, with their sessions, packs and payments: see [Invite students to the portal](/en/student-portal/invite-students).

## Before you start

* [Let students book sessions](/en/booking/turn-on-booking): your link only shows courses with booking turned on.

## Share your booking link

1. Click your photo or initials, top right, and choose **My link**.
2. On the **Booking link** card, click the copy button (**Copy booking link**). The button turns green: the link is copied.
3. Paste it in a message to your students: WhatsApp, email or your website.

To see the page the way your students see it, click **Open booking link**, the button to the right of the copy button.

## What your students see

Your page shows your name and the courses they can book. **1 to 1 lessons** courses aren't shown straight away. Your student clicks **Show your private courses**, types the email you have saved for them and clicks **Show my courses**. If it matches, they see their courses.

Then they pick a day and time. Your students don't need an account to book.

## Change your link name

<Warning>Your old link stops working as soon as you save the new one, and someone else could take it. Send the new link to your students.</Warning>

1. In **My link**, delete the name in the box at the top and type the new one.
2. Wait until you see **Available** below the box.
3. Click **Save**. You'll see "Link updated successfully". All done!

The name changes in both links at once. It follows these rules:

* From 3 to 63 characters.
* Only letters without accents, numbers and hyphens. Capitals become lowercase and spaces become hyphens.
* Accented letters and ñ are deleted whole as you type (`josé` becomes `jos`). Type `jose` instead of `josé`, and `n` instead of `ñ`.
* It can't start or end with a hyphen, or have two hyphens in a row.
* It can't be a reserved name, like `admin` or `help`, or someone else's. If it is, you'll see "This link isn't available" or "This link is already being used".

## What you can't do

* You can't have a different link for each course. Your students choose the course on your page.
* You can't keep your old link after you change it.
