Event Types

Event types are templates for the kinds of meetings you offer — a "15-minute intro" or a "60-minute deep dive." Set them up once and people book the right amount of time with you, no back-and-forth.

What are event types?

Pre-set, fully customizable meeting templates:

Customizable: create as many as you need, each with its own name, URL, duration, availability, and location (Zoom, Google Meet, and more).
Smart availability: bookers only see slots where you're truly free — Cal ID checks your connected calendars to prevent double-booking.
Example: an HR team might offer a "Job Interview" (30 min) and a "Performance Review" (60 min), each configured differently.

Create an event type

Choose Personal or Team (if you're not on a team, it defaults to personal).

Fill in the basics in the pop-up:

Title (also becomes part of the URL)
Description (shown to bookers)
Duration (e.g., 15, 30, or 60 minutes)

Click Continue to open the full editor, where you can fine-tune Event Setup, Availability, Limits & Buffers, Advanced, Workflows, Recurring, and Embed.

Preview your booking page

From Event Types: click the external-link icon next to the event URL to open the live page.

From the editor: click the Preview icon at the top right to see changes in real time.

Key benefits

Saves time — no "Are you free at 2 PM?" emails.
Flexible — toggle events on or off instantly.
Easy to share — each event has its own link to send or embed.
