Scenario / Question
What setting needs to be changed so invitees do not have to sign up or log in?
Overview
Invitees do not need to create a Calendly account or log in to book a meeting with you. As long as your invitees have an email address, they can schedule time directly from your booking page—no signup or login required.
Step-by-Step
- Share your Calendly booking link: Copy your event or scheduling page link and send it to your invitees.
- Invitee opens the link: The invitee clicks the link and is taken to your booking page.
- Invitee selects a time: They choose an available time slot.
- Invitee enters details: They provide their name and email address (and any other required information you’ve set up).
- Invitee confirms the booking: No Calendly account or login is needed—just submit the form to complete the booking.
Key Notes & Limitations
- Invitees only need an email address to book; no Calendly account is required.
- If your booking page is asking invitees to log in or sign up, double-check that you are sharing your event scheduling link, not a Calendly admin or community login page.
- Invitees may need to log in only if you are sharing a link to the Calendly Community or an internal admin page, not a booking page.
