I sometimes need to book a Calendly event that ‘shouldn’t ‘ in theory be bookable.
for example,
that’s within the buffer zone of an existing booking,
or outside my set available hours,
or already has an event booked on my Outlook calendar (ie not booked thro Calendly).
So I make the changes that should make the event bookable, for example, I reduce the buffer zones or change my availability or mark as free the Outlook event… and then I wait, and wait, and wait, for the changes to take effect and for the slot I need to show up as free.
I refresh over and over, but the troubleshooter still shows the slot as ‘calendar’, or ‘buffer’ or ‘duration’, for ages, then suddenly it’s available.
Is there a refresh interval ? How does it work?
In the meantime I have to sit and watch it so that I can book it the moment it shows as free, ie so no one else can book the slot before I do. I didn’t time it but this evening I think it took about an hour, usually it’s more like 5 - 10 minutes.
I have a standard 1-seat plan
MTIA for any help.
(I used to use Acuity and it allowed me to overwrite existing events which got round this whole problem. I only changed because of VI accessibility issues)
