Allowing to block time without event

Hey there @Sarab - great question! I’m glad you posted this topic. 

Calendly does not currently offer an ability to share a link without predetermined availability for the invitee to select from. That said - you might be interested in our One-Off Meeting feature and/or our Meeting Polls feature. Namely - Meeting Polls.

Well - what is a Meeting Poll? Let me tell you! 🤗

A Calendly meeting poll combines both voting and scheduling in a few simple steps:

1. You create your meeting details and offer times to meet.
2. People vote on their preferred times.
3. You choose the best time, and Calendly schedules the meeting for you.

Benefits

• Consolidate tools: Calendly will handle voting and scheduling.
• Take everyone’s time into consideration: Let people vote on their preferred times for upcoming meetings.
• Find the best time to meet: Book a single time to meet with a single host or multiple hosts, with multiple attendees, based on the times they prefer.
• Turn voters into attendees: Calendly will automatically send calendar invites and meeting details to everyone who votes in a poll.

Keep in mind that you also have other customization options at your fingertips! For example, with one-on-one event types you can utilize our Customize Once and Share tool. Then, the aforementioned One-Off Meeting option allows you to offer high-priority time blocks over your existing bookings/events on your connected calendar.

I know this isn't exactly what you wanted to hear but do hope the information helps, at least somewhat!
