- Previous — past appointments with their final status (completed, cancelled, no-show)

Fill in the appointment fields:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Title | Custom title for the appointment; leave blank to use the calendar’s default |
| Description | Additional context or notes about the booking |
| Team member | The user assigned to the appointment; or leave on automatic assignment |
| Attendees | Add other contacts as guests who will receive confirmation details |

Editing an appointment
Open the edit view
Click the three-dot icon on the appointment card, then click the pencil icon to open the full edit form.
Rescheduling an appointment
To move an appointment to a different date or time, open the edit view (as above) and select a new date and time slot. Save the appointment to confirm the new time. If the contact needs to reschedule themselves, they can do so through the rescheduling link included in their confirmation email — provided the calendar has the reschedule option enabled.Cancelling an appointment
Open the appointment card
In the Appointments tab, find the appointment and click the three-dot icon.
Cancelling an appointment from the contact record does not automatically send a cancellation email to the contact unless a workflow or calendar notification is configured to do so.
Appointment statuses
| Status | Description |
|---|---|
| Confirmed | Appointment is active and scheduled |
| Unconfirmed | Booking is tentative and awaiting confirmation |
| Showed | Contact attended the appointment (can be set manually) |
| No Show | Contact did not attend (can be set manually or by workflow) |
| Cancelled | Appointment was cancelled by either party |
| Invalid | Appointment could not be processed due to a configuration issue |
Adding attendees
A single appointment can include multiple attendees. This is useful for group sessions, discovery calls with multiple stakeholders, or internal team meetings. To add attendees when booking or editing an appointment:- Click the Attendees field
- Search for and select additional contact records
- Each attendee receives their own confirmation email (if notifications are enabled)
Viewing appointments across the account
To see all appointments across all contacts — not just within a single record — navigate to Calendars in the main navigation. The calendar view lets you filter by team member, calendar, and date range to get a complete picture of your booking pipeline.Frequently asked questions
Can I book an appointment for a contact who does not have an email address?
Can I book an appointment for a contact who does not have an email address?
Yes. An email address is not required to create an appointment manually from a contact record. However, the contact will not receive email confirmation or reminders unless an email address is on file.
What happens if I book a time slot that is already taken?
What happens if I book a time slot that is already taken?
The booking form only displays available time slots. If a slot appears unavailable, the calendar’s availability settings are preventing it from being shown. You can override availability in some calendar configurations — check the calendar settings for that option.
Can contacts reschedule or cancel their own appointments?
Can contacts reschedule or cancel their own appointments?
Yes, if the self-rescheduling and self-cancellation options are enabled on the calendar. Contacts can use the links in their confirmation email to manage their own bookings within the rules you set.
Are appointments linked to opportunities?
Are appointments linked to opportunities?
Not automatically. You can associate an appointment with an opportunity manually, or use a workflow to create this linkage when an appointment is booked.
