Create a Cal schedule from an Outlook event
Make a new schedule change usable across your booking flow.
Trigger
New Calendar Event
Triggered when a new calendar event is created in the Outlook calendar.
Action
Create user availability schedule
Creates a cal.com user availability schedule, defining its name, timezone, weekly recurring availability, and specific date overrides; if `isdefault` is true, this schedule replaces any existing default and applies to event types not linked to a specific schedule.
Why this helps
Temporary or recurring availability changes are easy to forget when they stay in one calendar.
- Turn schedule decisions into reusable availability
- Keep booking windows current
- Reduce manual schedule editing
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Outlook and Cal once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation that creates the requested Cal user availability schedule from the new event details.
- 3Pick New Calendar Event as the trigger.
- 4Choose where schedule creation reports should go.
- 5Test it with one event containing clear availability instructions.
Questions about this workflow
Can it infer weekly slots from any event?
No. The Outlook event or your instruction must provide enough schedule details.
Can it replace the default schedule?
It can set isdefault only when your instruction explicitly requests that behavior.
