Note: Your calendar connections will apply to all event types a user is a part of. Therefore, it is not possible to connect a unique event type to a specific calendar. If you would like this level of control, please consider Calendly's team functionality.

How to specify which calendars Calendly adds events to and checks for conflicts

Use multiple email addresses for notifications

Calendly sends all notifications to the email address used to create your account. If you'd like to send notifications to a different address, or to other members of your team, you can do so by creating forwarding filters.

Google users can add a forwarding address within their Gmail settings. Once it's added, create a filter to suit your needs. If you want all Calendly notifications forwarded, filter by the sender addresses notifications@calendly.com and no-reply@calendly.com. You can also forward emails from specific events by filtering emails with event type titles in the subject lines.

If you use Office 365 or Outlook.com, set up a forwarding rule within the Outlook Web App. The process for creating forwarding rules for Outlook desktop users will vary depending on the version of Outlook used.
