How to block someone from booking with you

If someone misuses your booking links or repeatedly books unwanted meetings, you can block them in Calendly.

Blocking someone helps prevent future bookings from that source. You can also view and manage blocked sources from your account settings at any time.

Block someone from a meeting

You can block someone from an upcoming or past meeting within 90 days of the meeting date.

  1. Go to the Meetings page and select the meeting.
  2. Under Details, find the person you want to block.
  3. Select the three-dots-icon.png three dots next to their name, then choose:
    • Block invitee (for an upcoming meeting), or
    • Block attendee (for a past meeting)
  4. Complete the form.
  5. Select Submit.

You’ll see a confirmation message when the block is complete.

Note

If the Block invitee or Block attendee option isn’t available in your meeting details, follow the steps in Report Abuse to Calendly instead.

What happens after you block someone

  • Any upcoming non-group meetings with this source are canceled and removed from your calendar.
  • Calendly prevents future bookings from this source.
  • You can manage or reverse this action from your account settings.

You can view everyone you’ve blocked and unblock them at any time. After you unblock someone, they’re no longer blocked from booking with you.

View and unblock from account settings

  2. Go to All settings > Security > Blocked sources.
  3. Find the person you want to unblock.
  4. Select Unblock, then confirm.

  2. Under Details, find the person you want to unblock.
