Nylas Scheduler
Nylas Scheduler is the fastest way to add full calendar functionality to your application and allow your users to create highly customizable Scheduling Pages. Offer attendees and organizers an easy way to view availability and book meetings using your application without needing third-party scheduling solutions.
At Nylas, we've found developers want a simpler way to integrate powerful scheduling into their applications. Scheduler gives the functionality of finding availability, identifying timezones, handling booking confirmation and cancellations, and more all at once in a pre-built and customizable user interface..
There are two main components to the Nylas Scheduler:
- Schedule Editor: The Schedule Editor enables meeting organizers to create and edit Scheduling Pages. They can also adjust dozens of details, including custom availability and the general look and feel of the scheduling page.
- Scheduling Page: A pre-built, customizable web page where attendees easily book meetings with organizers.
Organizers use the Schedule Editor inside of your application (left), and can share their Scheduling Pages (right) with attendees.
The Nylas Scheduler is a complete scheduling solution packed with features:
- Robust Customization: Provides a seamless, in-app integration that fully matches your branding and product UI. You can update Company Logo, Company Name, Event Duration, Event Title, Timezone, Theme Colors, Date and Time Format, Custom Submit Button Text, Custom Redirect, and Custom Thank You Text.
- AutoSchedule: Makes it easy for attendees share their availability so they can easily book conflict-free events.
- Custom Fields: Allows organizers to collect additional information from attendees before they can book an event. Examples include custom input types like phone number, text boxes, dropdown selectors, and more.
- Email Notifications: For booking confirmations, cancellations, and reschedules - including event details and instructions for attendees.
- Pre-populate Input Fields: Allows you to send application-specific data with query parameters to create a seamless booking experience and associate user actions with your application data.
- Reminders & Webhook Notifications: To receive reminders for upcoming meetings and notifications for scheduled events.
- Responsive Design: Attendees can book events on a Scheduling Page that renders beautifully across devices, whether it's on desktop or mobile.
- Timezone Detection and Accommodation: Makes it easy for attendees to book times based on their own timezone.
- Realtime, two-way Calendar Sync: Means you'll never have to deal with scheduling conflicts again.
- Round Robin Scheduling: Determines how bookings are assigned when multiple calendars are used. You can choose to maximize fairness or availability when using round robin scheduling.
- Advanced Settings: Give you maximum control over how and when events are scheduled. Includes configurable duration, minimum notice for an event, cancellation policies, opening hours, manual confirmation, scheduling page expiration, and more.

Scheduling Page
Users creating a Scheduling Page using the Schedule Editor generates a unique link to share with people for booking an event. Visitors can select a time based on the organizer's availability.
You can set a default theme and logo for the Scheduling Page if you already have that information in your application for a specific user. Users can further customize the look at feel of their own Scheduling Pages, such as modifying the logo, title, and theme color, by adjusting their settings in the Schedule Editor for the specific page.
