# Event Types

> Event types define the different meeting options available on your scheduling page. Configure durations, locations, buffer times, and booking rules.

## What are Event Types?

Event types are the different meeting options within a scheduling page. For example, you might have a "15-minute intro call," a "30-minute demo," and a "60-minute deep dive" all on the same page. Each event type has its own duration, location, buffer times, and booking rules.

## Duration Options

Set how long each meeting type lasts. You can use preset durations or define a custom length.

| Duration | Note |
| - | - |
| 15 min | |
| 30 min | Most popular |
| 45 min | |
| 60 min | |
| Custom | Set any duration |

## Meeting Locations

Choose where your meetings take place. Each event type can have a different location.

> [card] Google Meet

> [card] Zoom
>
> Creates a Zoom meeting automatically

> [card] Microsoft Teams (Coming Soon)
>

> [card] Phone
>
> Display your phone number or ask for theirs

> [card] In-Person
>
> Show your office address or meeting location

> [card] Custom URL
>
> Provide any video conferencing or meeting URL

## Buffer Times

Add breathing room before and after meetings so you're never double-booked back-to-back.

> [card] Before Meeting
>
> Block time before each meeting for preparation. Set 5, 10, 15, or 30 minutes of buffer before a meeting can be booked.

> [card] After Meeting
>
> Block time after each meeting for notes and follow-up. Prevents back-to-back scheduling fatigue.

## Booking Window

Control how far in advance people can book meetings with you.

* **Rolling Window** — Allow bookings within a rolling number of days from today (the default is 14). For example, "next 14 days" means visitors can only book within two weeks of the current date.
* **Custom Date Range** — Set a specific start and end date for availability. Useful for limited-time events, seasonal scheduling, or campaigns.

You can also set a **minimum notice** (how much lead time you need before a booking, from none to 48 hours) and a **start time increment** (the spacing between offered start times, e.g. every 15 or 30 minutes).

## Daily Limits

Set a maximum number of meetings that can be booked per day. Once the limit is reached, remaining slots are hidden for that day.

> [!TIP]
>
> **Prevent meeting overload**
>
> Setting a daily limit of 4-6 meetings helps maintain energy and meeting quality throughout the day. You can always adjust this per event type.

## Booking Confirmation

Choose whether meetings are automatically confirmed or require your approval before being added to the calendar.

> [card] Auto-confirm
>
> Meetings are instantly confirmed and added to both calendars. Best for open availability.

> [card] Requires Approval
>
> You review and approve each booking before it's confirmed. The visitor receives a "pending" email until you accept.

> [!TIP]
>
> **Multiple event types**
>
> You can add multiple event types to the same scheduling page. Visitors will see a selection screen where they choose which type of meeting they want before picking a time slot.
