1) Add Calendly Tools in Alta

  1. Go to Settings → Tools

  2. Click Add Tool

  3. Select Calendly

  4. You will see two tool types:

    • Calendly — Book a Meeting

    • Calendly — Check Availability

  5. Start by selecting Book a Meeting


2) Connect Your Calendly Account

Alta now supports OAuth authentication for Calendly — the same method used for Microsoft Calendar and Alta's CRM integrations. This means you no longer need to manually generate or paste an API token.

To connect via OAuth:

  1. In the tool configuration, click Connect Calendly

  2. You'll be redirected to Calendly to authorize the connection

  3. Once authorized, you'll be returned to Alta automatically

Already connected using an API token? No action needed — both authentication methods are currently supported. Your existing connection will continue to work.


3) Configure the “Book a Meeting” Tool in Alta

  1. Paste your Calendly booking link
    (e.g. https://calendly.com/yourname/...)

  2. Paste your API token

  3. Set your Default Time Zone

  4. (Optional) Rename the tool
    e.g. Sharon – Calendly Book Meeting

  5. Click Save Configuration


4) Repeat for "Check Availability"

  1. Add a new tool → Select Calendly – Check Availability

  2. Use the same authorized Calendly account

  3. Use the same time zone

  4. Give it a recognizable name e.g. Sharon – Calendly Check Availability

  5. Click Save Configuration


5) Assign the Tools to Your Call Configuration

After setting up both tools, go to the Call Configuration area and assign the Calendly tools so your AI agent can check availability and book meetings during calls.


⚠️ Limitations

  • Only available for paid Calendly accounts.
