Slack

Your Cal.com assistant, booking notifications and out of office, right inside Slack.

Ask the Cal.com assistant

DM it, @mention it in a channel, or run /cal <question>. It can check your availability, find a time with a teammate, book, reschedule or cancel meetings, and set your out of office.

• Every DM starts its own thread, so each question keeps its own conversation.
• Mention it once in a channel thread and it follows your replies without another mention. Start a message with (aside) and it stays out of it.
• Anything that changes your calendar shows an Approve / Deny card first. You can also just reply “approve” or “deny”.

Booking notifications

Get a DM when someone books, reschedules or cancels with you. Choose which ones under Settings → Notifications.

Out of office announcements

Pick a channel under Settings → Out of office → Integrations and your team sees when you’re out. Delete the entry and the post is struck through.
