How to set up a collective shared event

Collective events let you host an event with people in your Calendly organization and let invitees pick a time when you're all available simultaneously. 

Before you begin...

  • To create a shared event type with another person, that person must be a user on your Calendly account. Read more about shared event types here. 

How to create a collective shared event 

  1. On your Calendly Home page, select New Event Type.

  2. Select Create next to the collective event type.

  3. Enter the names or emails of all other hosts for this event type. Select Next.

  7. (Optional) Under Available hours, set the time frame for when you and other hosts are accepting meetings for this type of event. See How to set up host availability for multi-person scheduling for more information. 
    Note: We already block times marked as “busy” on the calendar(s) you and other hosts have  connected to Calendly via the Calendar Connections page. 

  8. (Optional) To set advanced availability settings, select Additional rules for your availability. You can set your Start time increments, event max per day, minimum scheduling notice, and timezone.
