Invalid Argument for "event_type_available_times" endpoint

curl --request GET \ --url 'https://api.calendly.com/event_type_available_times?event_type=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.calendly.com%2Fevent_types%2Fd9ceda1a-7a6e-4fa1-b0af-59c2df7c2387&start_time=2020-01-02T20%3A00%3A00.000000Z&end_time=2020-01-07T24%3A00%3A00.000000Z' \ --header "Authorization: Bearer $BEARER_TOKEN" \ --header 'Content-Type: application/json'What’s wrong with my request? I tried using the request-creator tool in the docs: https://developer.calendly.com/api-docs/6a1be82aef359-list-event-type-available-times, but in that UI or in curl, i get the same error: {"title":"Invalid Argument","message":"The supplied parameters are invalid."}For reference, I got this event_type uuid from a successful call to the  https://api.calendly.com/event_types endpoint.

Cookie Alert

Hi,I’ve found that Calendly, when embedded on a website, is showing the “click to accept marketing cookies and enable this content” message.Setting “ hide_gdpr_banner=1” makes no difference.By displaying this modal message, you are forcing users to consent, before making a booking. Forced consent and linking consent with other matters both invalidate consent under GDPR, therefore you do not have a lawful basis for marketing cookies. All your tracking data is unlawful.This is a particular deal breaker for me because you’re preventing customers from booking, just so you can gather marketing data about my website.Please fix it quickly.Keith

Redirect issue: Unsafe attempt to initiate navigation for frame ... The frame attempting navigation of the top-level window is sandboxed with the 'allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation' flag, but has no user activation (aka gesture)

As the title suggests, we’re trying to redirect after booking is complete but it fails with the following error:Redirect issue: Unsafe attempt to initiate navigation for frame [URL] The frame attempting navigation of the top-level window is sandboxed with the 'allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation' flag, but has no user activation (aka gesture)We’re just using a standard Calendly embed, and it all appears to work apart from the redirect at the end.When I test using a simple HTML page, everything is fine. However this page is hosted on Framer, so I’m guessing there’s something in Framer that’s conflicting?You can see it in action here:https://recsites.com/uk/book-demo Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

event_type_available_times fails if start_time is in the past

The event_type_available_times endpoint fails if start_time is in the past. In fact if fails with an opaque 400 error:`The supplied parameters are invalid`It took me an hour to debug this non-obvious behavior.Can you please document this behavior in the api docs, return a meaningful error message in the api response, or preferably both?Thanks!

Issues Integrating Calendly API with My Website for Custom Booking Flow

Hi Calendly Community,I’m trying to integrate the Calendly API into my website to create a custom booking flow, but I’ve run into a few issues:When I use the API to fetch available time slots, the response occasionally returns empty, even though the calendar has availability. I’m receiving a 401 Unauthorized error intermittently, even though I’ve double-checked my authentication token and API key. The booking flow works fine in testing but sometimes fails to confirm bookings on the live site, displaying a “failed to process” message.Here’s what I’ve done so far:Verified that the API token is valid and has the correct permissions. Ensured my API requests comply with the documentation (e.g., correct headers and parameters). Tested the integration in a local development environment, where it works more consistently.Could this be related to rate limits, caching issues, or something else? Any insights or advice on making the integration more stable and reliable would be greatly appreciated!

When rescheduling a meeting, not receiving any webhook data for new appointment times

I am working with the calendly webhooks, and I am successfully able to use invitee.created and invitee.cancelled.  But what about when a user reschedules a meeting?  I don’t see any event types for rescheduling, and when a meeting is rescheduled, it’s giving me a cancellation event, with a rescheduled: true in the event body, but it doesn’t seem to be sending me the new rescheduled date/times.  Am I missing something here?  The documentation for calendly doesn’t show a rescheduled webhook.  Wondering how to go about this :-)Thanks!

How to Update a Custom Field in Salesforce When a Calendly Invite is Accepted by User?

Hi EveryoneI am working on integrating Calendly with Salesforce and need a way to automatically update a custom field on a Salesforce object whenever a new user is added to the organization in Calendly and he/she accepts the Invite. Here's the scenario:When a user accepts the Calendly invite, I need their unique Calendly ID and Email Address to be sent to Salesforce and updated in a specific custom field on a Salesforce object. Calendly ID should be the unique user identifier which is present in the scheduling URL of the new user. eg: calendly id which I am looking for is john-doe (slug) which is in scheduling url: https://calendly.com/john-doe Does Calendly provide any webhook or event that can notify Salesforce with the details I need, when an invite is accepted?

Pending Scheduled Events and Creating Meeting Polls via API

Hello,I'm currently working on integrating Calendly more deeply into our scheduling workflow and have several questions regarding the API's capabilities, specifically around scheduled events and meeting polls. Querying Pending Events: Is there a way to specifically query for scheduled events that are in a 'pending' state, such as meeting polls? This functionality would be incredibly useful for managing large numbers of appointment requests. Creating Meeting Polls via API: While the API documentation provides details on creating One-Off Event Types, I am curious if there is a similar capability for creating meeting polls. I noticed that the event type class includes a pooling_type attribute. Could this be utilized to create meeting polls, and if so, could you provide some guidance or point me to the relevant documentation? I appreciate any help or direction you can provide. Thank you for supporting the community with your insights!

Can you add atributes for getting custom styles for form ?

Could you add an attribute that would help developers customize the form styles with their own CSS properties. Here is a simple way to implement it. <script src="https://assets.calendly.com/assets/external/widget.js" type="text/javascript"></script><div class="calendly-inline-widget" data-url="https://calendly.com/andry-heyreliable/30min?hide_gdpr_banner=1" style="height:700px;"  data-custom-css=”https://testsite.local/custom-styles.css”  ></div> Just simple `data-custom-css`  will help to change styles of widget by having more strong priority

Calendly API How to add custom fields outside the widget?

Is it possible to include any custom fields like the one in the image in the Calendly form request that will display them in the body of the emails that the client and site owner receive?I read in the documentation about new fields, and questions that come with iframe But this is not quite it. My task is to add my OWN fields when sending the form. Is it posiable in some JS code ?

I keep getting a error when trying to test the API

I just signed up for Calendly and am testing it out. There seems to be an issue when I create the Personal Access Token and use it for the API connection. Here is what I am getting returned: 401 Unauthorized {"title": "Unauthenticated","message": "The access token is invalid"} I am trying to test it within the docs, and have also tried testing through Postman, etc. Everywhere is showing the same error.  For security, I replaced the personal access token. Thank you for your help in advanced.

Webhook not working

I have an integration with an app I’m developing for scheduling meetings. My app checks the Calendly API and verifies the calendly subscription still exists everytime when it starts. I’m running NGROK to forward requests locally currently with the subscription and I can no longer see requests from Calendly. I confirmed the subscription is still there. I just tested another webhook for an esignature API I also have setup and it’s working and forwarding. The calendly one is broken and doesn’t forward (invitee.created in this case).It was working before, I have no network issues so I assume this is a Calendly problem. I can see the token shows last access date so auth/connect is fine. I am just not receiving payloads anymore. I last saw this working a few days ago.

GDPR Cookie banner still loading on embedded reschedule popup widget even with GET param "hide_gdpr_banner" set to true

I’m running into an issue when trying to suppress the GDPR banner for rescheduling events using the embedded widget integration.Calendly documentation indicates the GDPR cookie banner can be hidden using the “hide_gdpr_banner” GET parameter when calling the embedded popup integration. However, the banner still appears when I have the parameter set in the URL. The parameter is working correctly for embedded popup widgets to create an event and to cancel an event, but doesn’t work for rescheduling.Is this a bug in the Calendly integration?

Expose more fields than just `uri` for `calendly.event_scheduled`

Feature RequestThe https://developer.calendly.com/api-docs/2d6c9df9b89de-notifying-the-parent-window, and personal testing confirms that the only data available to the parent window when an event is scheduled  (calendly.event_scheduled) is the uri of the event and invitee. However, I see in the network tab that many fields are returned. Can you expose all, or some of these other fields? At least start_time, end_time, and uuid My Use CaseI would like to create my own “you are scheduled” page, because calendly is just one of the steps in my flow. I would like to show my users this ‘scheduled’ information alongside a few more “what’s next/what to expect”, my own styling for FAQ link, etc.

How do I dynamically capture UTMs on an embedded Calendly submission?

Hi all, I hope someone can help me with this.Issue:I’ve embedded a Calendly widget into my website.I’ve tried following along with the documentation to dynamically add UTM parameters to the data-url (as the documentation says) and reinitialise the Calendly widget (along with trying a range of other things): https://help.calendly.com/hc/en-us/articles/4406950779799-How-to-source-track-your-Calendly-embed-with-UTM-parameters#h_01HBEHS384CGRJB9RHQH0T4A8YStill whenever I submit the widget, no UTMs are passed through.I’ve tried adding them to the data-url, using prefill, and reinitialising the widget after adding them. Use Case:I need to be able to track the source and medium of sessions (especially who come from campaigns) when a user fills out the Calendly widget on an embedded calendar on my website.It seems everything (all integrations and help pages) is geared around people booking on a Calendly page and not via an embedded calendar on a website.Surely there is a solution to this?It ne

The email field should have an option to be prepopulated and read only for security purpose

Hi,I’m using your webhook that react the scheduling of my users.I pre fill via the URL the name and email of the user.But if one user decide to change the email for something else, eventually it can crash the app. I can find a way around with an “if email exist” statement, but if the user decide to put an already existing email that is not his, the webhook will still process it and change things in the database of the user’s mail used.There should be a way to go around that.Thank you
