Guidelines

1. API version header: Always include cal-api-version: 2024-08-13 — requests without this header will fail. 2. API key prefix: Cal.com API keys are prefixed with cal_live_ (production) or cal_test_ (test environment). 3. eventTypeId: Required when creating a booking — get it from the List Event Types endpoint. 4. Timestamps: Use ISO 8601 format with UTC timezone (e.g., 2025-01-20T14:00:00.000Z). 5. Rate limits: 120 requests per minute with API key auth. Response headers include X-RateLimit-Remaining. 6. Self-hosted: If using a self-hosted Cal.com instance, replace api.cal.com with your own domain. 7. Booking confirmation: If an event type requires manual confirmation, bookings start with pending status until confirmed.
