Calendly

Work with Calendly from chat — manage events, invitees, scheduling links, webhooks, and availability via the Calendly API with OAuth authentication.

This skill uses ClawLink for hosted connection flows and credentials so you do not need to configure Calendly API access yourself.

Install

Install the verified ClawLink plugin from ClawHub. After the user confirms, complete the full setup so ClawLink tools are visible in the next OpenClaw chat.

openclaw plugins install clawhub:clawlink-plugin
openclaw config set tools.alsoAllow '["clawlink-plugin"]' --strict-json
openclaw gateway restart

Then tell the user: "OpenClaw has been restarted. Send /new as a standalone message to start a fresh chat, then ask for Calendly again."

Quick Start

# List scheduled events
clawlink_call_tool --tool "calendly_list_scheduled_events" --params '{"user": "https://api.calendly.com/users/USER_UUID"}'

# List event types
clawlink_call_tool --tool "calendly_list_event_types" --params '{"user": "https://api.calendly.com/users/USER_UUID"}'

# Get event invitees
clawlink_call_tool --tool "calendly_list_event_invitees" --params '{"event": "https://api.calendly.com/scheduled_events/EVENT_UUID"}'

Authentication

All Calendly tool calls are authenticated automatically by ClawLink using the user's connected Calendly account.

No API key is required in chat. ClawLink stores the OAuth token securely and injects it into every Calendly API request on the user's behalf.

Getting Connected

1. Install the ClawLink plugin (see Install above).
2. Pair the plugin with clawlink_begin_pairing if it is not configured yet.
3. Open https://claw-link.dev/dashboard?add=calendly and connect Calendly.
4. Call clawlink_list_integrations to verify the connection is active.

Connection Management

List Connections

clawlink_list_integrations

Response: Returns all connected integrations. Look for calendly in the list.

Verify Connection

clawlink_list_tools --integration calendly

Response: Returns the live tool catalog for Calendly.

Reconnect

If Calendly tools are missing or the connection shows an error:

1. Direct the user to https://claw-link.dev/dashboard?add=calendly
2. After they confirm, call clawlink_list_integrations to verify
3. Then call clawlink_list_tools --integration calendly

Security& Permissions

• Access is scoped to the connected Calendly account's events and resources.
• All write operations require explicit user confirmation. Before executing any create, update, or delete call, confirm the target resource and intended effect with the user.
• Destructive actions (cancel event, delete invitee data, remove organization membership) are marked as high-impact and must be confirmed.

Code Examples

List upcoming events

clawlink_call_tool --tool "calendly_list_scheduled_events" \
  --params '{
    "user": "https://api.calendly.com/users/YOUR_USER_UUID",
    "status": "active",
    "count": 20
  }'

Create a scheduling link

clawlink_call_tool --tool "calendly_create_scheduling_link" \
  --params '{
    "owner": "https://api.calendly.com/users/YOUR_USER_UUID",
    "max_event_count": 5,
    "applies_to": "events"
  }'

Cancel a scheduled event

clawlink_call_tool --tool "calendly_cancel_scheduled_event" \
  --params '{
    "event": "https://api.calendly.com/scheduled_events/EVENT_UUID",
    "reason": "Rescheduled by organizer"
  }'

Create a webhook subscription

clawlink_call_tool --tool "calendly_create_webhooks" \
  --params '{
    "organization": "https://api.calendly.com/organizations/YOUR_ORG_UUID",
    "scope": "organization",
    "callback_url": "https://your-server.com/webhooks/calendly",
    "events": ["invitee.created", "invitee.canceled"]
  }'

Discovery Workflow

1. Call clawlink_list_integrations to confirm Calendly is connected.
2. Call clawlink_list_tools --integration calendly to see the live catalog.
3. Treat the returned list as the source of truth. Do not guess or assume what tools exist.
4. If the user describes a capability but the exact tool is unclear, call clawlink_search_tools with a short query and integration calendly.
5. If no Calendly tools appear, direct the user to https://claw-link.dev/dashboard?add=calendly.

Execution Workflow

┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│  READ OPERATIONS (Safe)                                     │
│  list → get → describe → call                              │
│                                                             │
│  Example: List events → Get event details → Show results    │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
                              │
                              ▼
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│  WRITE OPERATIONS (Require Confirmation)                     │
│  list → get → describe → preview → confirm → call         │
│                                                             │
│  Example: Describe tool → Preview changes → User approves   │
│           → Execute update                                  │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

1. For unfamiliar tools, ambiguous requests, or any write action, call clawlink_describe_tool first.
2. Use the returned guidance, schema, whenToUse, askBefore, safeDefaults, examples, and followups to shape the call.
3. Prefer read, list, search, and get operations before writes when that reduces ambiguity.
4. For writes or anything marked as requiring confirmation, call clawlink_preview_tool first.
5. Execute with clawlink_call_tool. Pass confirmation only after the preview matches the user's intent.
6. If the tool call fails, report the real error. Do not invent results or restate the failure as a missing capability unless the live catalog supports that conclusion.

Notes

• Event UUIDs are in URL format (e.g., https://api.calendly.com/scheduled_events/UUID).
• Organization scope webhooks trigger for all events in the org; user/group scopes are more targeted.
• Single-use scheduling links expire after one booking.
• Invite data deletion is asynchronous and may take up to one week (Enterprise).
• Event data deletion may take up to 7 days to complete (Enterprise).
• Organization owners cannot be removed from their own organization.

Error Handling

Troubleshooting: Tools Not Visible

1. Check that the ClawLink plugin is installed:

   openclaw plugins list
   

2. If the plugin is installed but tools are missing, tell the user to send /new as a standalone message to reload the catalog.
3. If a fresh chat does not help, run:

   openclaw config set tools.alsoAllow '["clawlink-plugin"]' --strict-json
   openclaw gateway restart
   

4. After restart, tell the user to send /new again and retry.

Troubleshooting: Invalid Tool Call

1. Ensure the integration slug is exactly calendly.
2. Use clawlink_describe_tool to verify parameter names and types before calling.
3. For write operations, always call clawlink_preview_tool first.
