It’s really frustrating that I first must change the settings (how many hours in the future can that event be scheduled) and then I must change my availability (adding the specific time/day that I want to schedule) and then hope nobody snags that time that I’ve already promised to a client before I go back in to add the client manually. THEN, I must go back and undo the two settings I’ve just modified and put them back to normal, again hopeful that nobody books before I get it set.

That’s a LOT of steps. Why can’t I simply override my own calendar?

Hi ​@Christine23884 - Thanks for reaching out!

You actually can now override your availability through the contacts tab in your Calendly account. I’ve left instructions for this below:

 

  1. Navigate to your Contacts tab.

  2. Locate the user you’d like to book with, then select Book Meeting next to the contact you are looking to reach out to.

  3. Select the event you’d like to book

    1. Edit the Title, Duration or Location
    2. Add any guests to the meeting
    3. Override your availability by selecting the button on the top right

 

This feature will also be moved to the events page soon, so keep an eye out for that!

Let me know if you have any questions!
