@Lorytif -

This is what solutions like Calendly are designed to do. They interface directly with your calendar, and only let folks schedule when you’re not booked. You could probably do it through Zapier, but it would be harder than it needs to be vs. an app you can usually use for free.

Thanks, i am using already calendly but in that case its not possible. I haven't the choice where students book. I can just say after if finally it's possible or not

Hey @Lorytif just wanted to Chime in here! @adamsmartschan is correct that Calendly would likely be the best solution here and I believe they may have some advanced features to help you with the availability logic you’re after. We’d suggest reaching out to their support team for some suggestions. Please do keep us posted should they offer a working solution! We’d love to have it posted here for others wanting to build the same kind of workflow. :slight_smile:
