How do I connect Calendly to Slack?
To connect Calendly to Slack, start by logging into your Calendly account and navigate to the Integrations page. From there, you’ll see an option to integrate with Slack. Click on it and follow the prompts, which will guide you through authorizing access to your Slack workspace. This will allow us to send you event notifications directly in Slack.
Can I receive notifications in Slack for new Calendly bookings?
Yes, once integrated, you'll automatically receive notifications in your selected Slack channel whenever a new booking is made on your Calendly schedule. You'll find these options under 'Notification Preferences’ within the integration settings.
How can I customize the messages sent from Calendly to Slack?
Within the integration settings, you can customize message templates for different event triggers such as new bookings or cancellations. These templates allow you to include specific details like event time, invitee name, and more.
What permissions are required for integrating Calendly with Slack?
The integration requires permission to post in channels and view channel content related to scheduling events. During setup, you'll be prompted to grant these permissions in order for us to deliver messages and updates effectively.
Are there any limitations on the type of events that trigger notifications?
Currently, notifications are triggered for all event types that can be set up in your Calendly account. You can manage which ones you'd like alerts for by adjusting your notification settings within our integrations dashboard.
How do I disconnect my Calendly account from Slack?
To disconnect, go back into your integrations settings in either Calendly or Slack and revoke the authorization permissions that were initially granted during integration setup.
Will existing events sync when I connect my accounts?
When you first connect Calendly with Slack, existing events won't trigger notifications automatically. Notifications are activated only for new events scheduled after connection.
