Example: start a workflow when someone books
- Click Add trigger, open the Apps tab and choose Calendly → Invitee created.
- Pick the Connected Account and give the trigger a clear name.
- Under Webhook Subscription Scope, choose User for your own events or Organization for everyone's.
- Optionally add filters, such as event type.
- Click Find new records. If nothing shows, book a test meeting in Calendly and try again.
- Select a record to use as sample data, then click Save trigger.
Example: create a one-off meeting link
- Click Add, open the Apps tab and choose Calendly → Create one-off meeting.
- Pick the Connected Account and name the action.
- Fill in Event Name, Host User, Duration (up to 720 minutes), and the Start Date and End Date for availability. Timezone is optional.
- Click Test action. This creates a real one-off event in Calendly and returns its booking link.
- Save the action and test the whole workflow before publishing.
Ideas
- New booking: find or create the contact, then send a pre-call message.
- Cancellation: wait 30 minutes. If they haven't rebooked, create a one-off link and send it.
- No-show: tag the contact and send a "sorry we missed you" message with a new link.
- Deal milestone: create a one-off meeting with the assigned rep and text the link.
Always test triggers and actions before you publish.
