Set your availability

Set working hours, appointment length, booking windows, blocked dates, and capacity on an Appointment Booking field.

On this page

Set availability on each Appointment Booking field. Customers see only times inside your hours, booking window, blocked-date rules, and remaining capacity.

Your workspace needs Services access before you use this setup.

Add a required Email field before configuring customer identity. Keep that field visible for every customer.

  1. Open the form builder.
  2. Select Add field.
  3. Add Appointment Booking.
  4. Open Advanced edit for that field.

Set hours and slot length#

  1. Choose the service Timezone.

Set working hours in your business timezone. The editor's timezone helper is outdated: customers first see their detected timezone, with the business timezone as a fallback.

On the booking page, Change switches between the customer's timezone and yours.

Turn a day off when you never accept appointments that day. Use more than one time range when you need a break between working periods.

For a lunch break, use separate ranges such as 09:00 to 12:00 and 13:00 to 17:00.

Setting What it controls Example
Slot duration How long the appointment lasts 60 minutes for a lesson
Buffer between slots Extra time before the next appointment can start 15 minutes between lessons
Minimum notice How many hours ahead a customer must book 24 hours to prepare
Earliest booking How many days ahead the booking window starts 0 allows today, subject to notice
Latest booking How many days ahead customers may book 60 limits advance bookings to about two months
Blocked dates Whole dates when appointments are unavailable A holiday or day off
Capacity per slot Separate customers allowed in the same time slot 1 for an individual lesson

If the form shows no times, then review every limit#

Confirm at least one day is open. Then check the date is inside both booking limits, outside Blocked dates, and far enough beyond Minimum notice.

A full slot also disappears. The buffer changes when the next appointment can start, but it does not extend the customer's appointment length.
