Neither. Say there are three possible events - A, B, C. Each three run all day, say from 9 - 5pm. If the first respondent books Event A @ 9am, a second responder should be able to book Event B at 9am. However, Calendly creates conflicts when trying to book more than one event at the same time within the same account and it won’t allow it.
So, my question is, is there a way to connect multiple calendly accounts for each event logic (in which case I would pair each event with each account) that way conflicts don’t exist? Or is there any other work around to making sure that two events can run at the same time.
My other idea was to have the user taken to another typeform account where they fill out an entirely new typeform created for each separate event. However, the problem I ran into there was Typeform doesn’t allow redirects based on questions (it only has a redirect at the end) which creates a broken user experience. I don’t want the user to have to go to another page just to be redirected. Also, moving the user from one form to another is also a broken experience
Hope I’m communicating clearly
To also clarify why I just can’t create three different typeform accounts for the different events to begin with, the user gets to choose which event they want based on seeing all the options in the first place.
that may be a workaround for you to get one typeform account, with 4 (in total) typeforms to connect with 3 different calendly apps based on your description of your use case..

Thank you very much for your response. This is definitely a lot for me as a non technical person, but will attempt to make it work. Before I get started however, can you confirm that I can integrate different calendly accounts per typeform? I attempted to do it (albeit without the instructions above); but typeform kept using the one calendly integration I added on a previous form.
Tagging
The good news is, I think there’s a simple solution without making multiple Calendly accounts, or mutliple Typeforms.
If I were in your situation (assuming I understand your situation correctly), I would set up three separate Calendly event pages for the three events, each with their own availability settings. That would make it so they don’t create conflicts between them. By using logic paths you can have the user taking the Typeform end up on any one of three Typeform-Calendly integration pages/questions. You can have each Typeform integration point to its respective event.
It sounds straightforward, so let us know if there’s a reason that wouldn’t work. Also let me know if that’s not clear!
Best of luck,
Hi
Also
Sorry for the delay in responding,
You can’t have conflicting events on Calendly, but you can have separate calendars for separate event pages (that’s what I meant by availability settings above).
For example, if Amy hosts event A that goes all day, and Brenda hosts event B that’s happening simultaneously, and Claire does event C:
Each should have their own calendar and Calendly event page. The respective event page should have availability set so that it only pays attention to the right host’s calendar. Brenda’s event looks at her calendar for availability, Amy at her’s, etc.
However, if you’re trying to get it to function as a ticketing service like Eventbrite where there’s one event that numerous amounts of people are signing up for with different ticket options...that’s a different fish to fry. I’m not sure Calendly can be finagled into working that way, since that’s not what it was designed for.
Hopefully that’s helpful!
