1. Overview
Calendly is a scheduling tool that lets people book time with you based on your real availability. You set up event types (like “15-minute call”), and invitees pick a slot from a shareable link. Once connected, your UnleashX agent can list your upcoming and past events, look up event details, check your availability and busy times, browse your event types, and create scheduling links on the fly. That means your agent can answer “when are you free?” and send a booking link without you lifting a finger. Connecting Calendly to UnleashX is useful for sales, support, and customer-facing teams who want to keep scheduling moving inside a live call or chat.2. What you’ll need
- A Calendly account.
- At least one event type configured so there’s something to share or book.
- A Calendly Personal Access Token (or an OAuth connection).
Personal Access Tokens are available on Calendly’s paid plans (Standard and above). If you’re on the free plan or don’t see the API section, ask your account owner to enable it or upgrade.
3. Get your credentials
Calendly uses a Personal Access Token (or OAuth).Open Calendly Integrations
Sign in at https://calendly.com, then go to Account → Integrations & apps. (Direct link: https://calendly.com/integrations/api_webhooks)
| Scope / Access | Why UnleashX needs it |
|---|---|
| Read scheduled events | To list and show your upcoming and past meetings |
| Read event types | To know what can be booked and via which link |
| Read availability / busy times | To answer “when are you free?” accurately |
| Create scheduling links | To generate single-use booking links for invitees |
A Personal Access Token reflects your Calendly account’s access. UnleashX only calls the endpoints needed for the tools listed in Section 5.

9. Frequently asked questions
Is my data stored by UnleashX? UnleashX calls Calendly live with your token when a tool runs. It doesn’t keep a separate copy of your calendar. Can multiple team members connect? Yes. Each person creates their own token (or completes OAuth) and connects it to their agent. How do I rotate my key? Generate a new Personal Access Token in Calendly’s API & webhooks page, update it in UnleashX, then revoke the old one. Can the agent cancel meetings? The exposed tools focus on reading your schedule and creating links/bookings; there is no cancel tool in this integration.10. References
