Event type
Keep Cal.com as the source of booking rules.
Choose the event type that owns the duration, availability, host routing, and booking constraints. Waaru uses that configuration rather than maintaining a second scheduling rule set.
Active integration
Connect Cal.com and choose the event type for the journey.
Production setup still needs account authorization, field mapping, host-routing review, and one representative booking test.
Cal.com integration
Turn a Cal.com event type into a WhatsApp booking journey.
Use the event type, availability rules, and required attendee fields your team already manages. The booking result remains part of the conversation so confirmation and follow-up do not start from zero.
In one line
Connect one Cal.com event type to show its available times, collect the required attendee details, create the booking, and use the confirmed result in the next workflow step.

No credit card. No commitment.
Route the booking before you show the time.
The selected event type determines the host, duration, availability, and attendee questions. The workflow carries that context through confirmation.

Operating boundary
Review what this connection can do.
- Authorization
The workspace authorizes its Cal.com account through OAuth and selects the event type used by the journey.
- Reads
List event types and available slots, read one booking, or find bounded bookings for an attendee.
- Writes
Create, reschedule, or cancel one booking through the reviewed booking actions.
- Events
Selected booking lifecycle events can continue confirmation, reminder, assignment, or handoff steps.
- Setup
Authorize the account, choose the event type, map required attendee fields, review host routing, and test booking changes.
- Exclusions
The journey does not replace Cal.com's event-type, host, availability, timezone, cancellation, or rescheduling rules.
- Recovery
Test a new booking, reschedule, cancellation, and the exception paths for the exact event type used in production.
Customer journey
Collect the details before creating the booking.
Ask the required attendee questions in the conversation or a WhatsApp Flow. Map only the fields the event type requires, then show available times and create the confirmed booking.
Follow-up
Use the booking result in the next operational step.
Carry the booking reference, time, event type, and outcome into confirmation, reminder, assignment, or team handoff steps. The customer does not need to repeat the appointment context.
Setup boundary
Test the event type your operation will actually use.
Availability, required fields, host routing, timezone handling, cancellation, and rescheduling rules can differ by event type and Cal.com account. Verify one representative new booking and one change before production traffic.
FAQ
Questions worth answering.
Yes. Connect an event type, collect its required attendee details, offer its available times, and create the confirmed booking from the journey.
