Event Types

Event types are the core building blocks of your scheduling system. They define what meetings can be booked, how long they last, and where they take place.

Creating an Event Type

Navigate to Event Types in your dashboard and click "New Event Type". Configure these basic settings:

SettingDescriptionExample
TitleName displayed to attendees30 Minute Meeting
URL SlugUnique identifier in booking link/30min
DescriptionDetails about the meetingQuick sync call
DurationHow long the meeting lasts30 minutes

Scheduling Configuration

Buffers

Avoid back-to-back meetings with buffer times:

  • Before Event: Time blocked before meeting starts
  • After Event: Time blocked after meeting ends

Minimum Notice

Prevent last-minute bookings by requiring advance notice:

  • 24 hours: No same-day bookings
  • 4 hours: Flexibility for urgent meetings
📅 Booking Window
Limit how far in advance people can book. A common setting is 60 rolling days, meaning people can book any time in the next two months.
