Create Availability in Cal ID
Your Availability Schedule acts as the foundation for your calendar. By defining your "Active Hours," you stay in total control of your time—ensuring meetings only happen when you’re available, while protecting your personal time for family, breaks, and rest.
As the user can have a specific schedule for every event type. They can use a certain availability schedule for all event types, more than one event types, or have a separate availability schedule for each event type to better organize their event types
On your main dashboard, locate the left-hand menu and click on Availability.
You aren't limited to just one set of hours! You can create multiple schedules to fit different needs.
- How: Click the + New button to create a specific schedule
- Edit: To change an existing one, simply click on the name of the schedule you wish to update.

Before setting your hours, verify the Timezone at the top of the page. This ensures that when a client books a time, it aligns perfectly with your local clock.

This is where you define your Availability:
- Toggle Days: Use the switches next to each day to set them to ON or OFF.
- Set Time Slots: Enter your start and end times (e.g., 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM).
- Add a Break (Split-Shift): To block out a lunch break or school run, click the "+" icon to add a second time slot on the same day.
- Example: Set 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM and 1:00 PM – 5:00 PM. The system will automatically keep you unbookable during that 12:00–1:00 hour.

Once you have organized your hours, click the Save button. Your schedule is now ready to be linked to your Event Types.
