Is there any update on whether Calendly is going to add a feature where someone can view availability without actually booking an appointment? I get that you can just have someone go in as if they are going to book an appointment and use that as a way to see when you’re available, but it would be MUCH more useful if there were a way to have them see a week or day view that shows where your availability is (in a when2meet.com fashion). 

I’m a professor and the purpose of this is that most of my colleagues use Outlook as their exclusive calendar and many meetings are scheduled simply by checking folks’ Outlook availability. For my admin to check mine requires going through a rather clunky process of fishing around in my calendly with one of my current meeting scheduling options. It would be far more useful (and less confusing) if when I were asked to provide my availability for a meeting I could simply share a Calendly link that gives the week or day view I mentioned above.

Thanks!!

Hi ​@boilerdevil - Thanks for reaching out!

We don’t quite have an update on this yet, but any feedback on the topic is super helpful. I can forward this on to our product team to review! Hopefully we can see something like this in the future.

In the meantime, I do know other users have created a separate internal Calendly event that their teams can view for availability. You can make specific events secret and share them via the link for a quick look at your availability. You can read how to make events secret here: Make an event secret

Let me know if you have any questions!
