I run a business and use Calendly for clients to book in meetings, I have 10 different event types and I have set each one to max 2 per day. The problem is because the event types are all different, there’s nothing stopping more than 2 being booked each day. 

I have set 30minute buffers but don’t want really long buffers as it means clients have very restricted time slots to choose from. However, I also don’t want more than 2 events to be booked in a day! 

I don’t think there’s an ideal solution to this yet. But I think my best option is once I have 2 events booked on a day, I change my availability to “unavailable” for that day, so no other clients are able to book a slot. My question is, would this cause the already booked events to be cancelled? 

Hi ​@Nao17775 - Thanks for reaching out!

Yes what you’ve mentioned would be the best option! Marking a day as unavailable would not cause other events to be cancelled on that day. So this should work!

I know our team has been working on some improvements to this process, so keep an eye out!

Let me know if you have any other questions.


I agree having the option to put a max total events able to be scheduled across all event types would be great. But also, I’d love the option to bypass my max event settings for specific days, much like we can bypass our hours of availability for specific days. I have specific days where I host special meeting availability for my advisees on another campus. The only way to allow them to book more than my settings are set for is by changing my overall setting, which allows way more events on other days than I can handle. once my schedule is full for that day, I then have to go back and adjust my overall settings for each event type again...until the next month when I do the special day again.
