Question

Sudden Exchange calendar disconnection – IONOS hosted Exchange / EWS – Anyone else experiencing this?

 

Hi everyone,

I'm reaching out to see if anyone else has experienced a similar issue with Calendly's Exchange calendar integration.

 

On October 24, at approximately 4:10 PM (French time), I received an email from Calendly notifying me that my Exchange calendar had been disconnected.

 

Until that moment, everything had been working perfectly for a long time. I had not changed my password, account settings, or server configuration.

 

My setup:

  • Microsoft Exchange 2019 hosted by IONOS (not Microsoft 365 / Exchange Online)

  • EWS server: https://exchange2019.ionos.eu/EWS/Exchange.asmx

  • Outlook for Mac

  • One Calendly account with several event types, including events managed by a partner organization for which I work as a subcontracted coach

What I've checked so far:

  • My Exchange account works perfectly in Outlook.

  • Outlook Web App (OWA) is accessible.

  • My credentials are correct.

  • Multiple attempts to reconnect Exchange to Calendly have failed.

  • Most importantly, I successfully connected the exact same Exchange account to Cal.com and tested calendar synchronization. It works, including the creation of appointments in my Outlook calendar.

This last point is particularly interesting because it suggests that the issue may be specific to Calendly's Exchange integration, rather than my Exchange account itself.

Why this is a serious issue for me:

My Calendly account is also used by an organization I subcontract for. They manage several of my booking event types directly through Calendly, so switching to another scheduling platform is not a realistic workaround.

The disconnection is therefore affecting both my own business and my subcontracted coaching appointments.

I have already contacted Calendly support, but the issue remains unresolved.

My questions to the community:

  1. Has anyone else experienced a sudden disconnection ?

  2. Is anyone currently experiencing problems reconnecting an Exchange calendar through EWS?

  3. Could this be related to a recent change in Calendly's Exchange authentication or integration?

I would really appreciate hearing from anyone experiencing similar issues, or from the Calendly technical team if they have any insight into what may have changed.

I'm particularly interested in understanding why a previously working integration suddenly stopped functioning, while the same Exchange account continues to work with another scheduling platform.

Thank you in advance for your help!

I have the exact same issue that you describe - and no update from Calendly yet on what the problem is and when and if they can fix it.

As you describe, this is also business-critical for me.

If there are any suggestions from the community I would be very happy to hear them.

I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing the exact same issue. But I must admit I'm also relieved to know I'm not the only one affected, and that this doesn't seem to be specific to my setup!

I've opened a support ticket with Calendly, and they've confirmed that their technical team is investigating the issue. However, I'm not sure whether they're working on it over the weekend.

They also mentioned that they had received around five similar reports. It's actually reassuring to hear from another affected user directly, as I wasn't entirely sure whether they were telling me that just to put my mind at ease!

I'll definitely share any updates I receive from Calendly here. Hopefully, we'll get this resolved quickly, as it's clearly business-critical for both of us.

I will do the same, let us hope for the best! They also told me that other users are affected - but no specific number yet.

Very disappointing experience - let us hope that at least when the week begins we hear back soon.

Will send any updates as soon as I get them!
