Wouldn’t it be great if the Calendly API allowed you to send a time range (a start time and an end time) and then receive a response indicating whether that time slot is available? I envision an API endpoint where you send a new appointment request with a specified start and end time, and Calendly returns:

• Whether that time slot is available for scheduling, and

• If available, the option to create a new meeting/appointment directly via the API.

 

This feature would make it much easier to integrate Calendly into automated workflows and scheduling systems by allowing us to quickly check availability and then book appointments if the slot is free. Looking forward to feedback and discussions on this idea!

Hi!

Thanks for sharing this thoughtful feature request. Being able to check availability within a specified time range and create appointments directly via the API would indeed be a powerful addition for many developers and integrations.

Currently, Calendly’s API doesn’t support sending arbitrary time ranges to check availability or creating scheduled events programmatically. These capabilities are on the radar of our product team, and feedback like yours helps prioritize future enhancements.

I recommend keeping an eye on Calendly’s developer changelog and roadmap announcements for updates on API improvements.

If you have more details about your use case or specific scenarios, feel free to share them here or contact Calendly Support via live chat (for paid plans) or email support@calendly.com — the more input, the better we can advocate for these features!

I hope this helps, and thanks again for contributing to the community!
