For example, professors can invite their students to reserve time during office hours each week. More detailed instructions can be found onGoogle's Documentationpage.

Creating a new appointment slot block

You can only create appointment slots while viewing your calendar in the Day or Week views. Make sure you are viewing your calendar in a web browser on a computer and not using the Calendar mobile app.

1. Highlight the block of time you wish to make appointment slots.
2. When the event window pops up, choose Appointment slots out of the row of options below Add title. The event window will change.
3. The default will be to have multiple slots set to 30 minutes apiece. You can change this timeframe, or you can also choose to have the whole block of time be a one-time slot by clicking Slots with duration and choosing Single slot.
4. Set the duration you want your time slots to be, enter a title for the appointment slot block, and choose what calendar you want your appointment slots on (the default is your personal calendar).
5. Click More options to set up recurring time slots and add more information such as location or description. Then click Save.

Invite others to reserve an appointment slot

1. Once your appointment slots are saved, click on the block of time again to see the event detail pop-up.
2. In the pop-up, click the link that says Go to appointment slot page for this calendar.
3. A new page will open in another tab in your browser. That new page is what others will use in order to schedule one of those slots you just created.
