Integrate Calendly With GoHighLevel Calendars
If you manage appointments across multiple tools like ClickUp, Calendly, and your CRM, connecting them correctly is essential. This guide walks you through how to integrate Calendly with GoHighLevel calendars so your bookings are organized and ready for automation.
By the end of this tutorial, you will know how to use the HighLevel calendar embed to display a Calendly calendar inside your funnels or websites and how to prevent any double‑booking conflicts inside your GoHighLevel account.
Before You Connect Calendly To GoHighLevel
GoHighLevel has its own native calendar system. When you embed Calendly instead of a native calendar, you are simply displaying Calendly in a GoHighLevel page. The actual booking logic, availability, and notifications remain fully managed by Calendly.
Keep these points in mind:
- Calendly handles availability, confirmations, and reminders.
- GoHighLevel will not automatically control time slots in Calendly.
- You can still use GoHighLevel pipelines, opportunities, and automation by adding contacts captured from Calendly into your CRM flows.
The steps below show how to create or edit a HighLevel calendar and swap the standard calendar element for a Calendly embed.
Step 1: Get Your Calendly Embed Code
First, prepare your Calendly event link so it can be embedded inside a GoHighLevel funnel or website.
-
Log in to your Calendly account.
-
Open the event type you want to use with GoHighLevel.
-
Click the option to share or embed your event.
-
Choose the Embed option (such as inline or popup) and copy the generated embed code or URL.
You will paste this embed inside the GoHighLevel builder in a later step.
Step 2: Open Your GoHighLevel Calendar Settings
Next, you need to access the calendar section inside your GoHighLevel sub‑account to link the Calendly experience to a specific calendar configuration.
-
Log in to your GoHighLevel account.
-
From the left menu, go to Calendars in the sub‑account where you want to use Calendly.
-
Select an existing calendar, or create a new one that will correspond to the booking flow managed by Calendly.
This calendar acts as the container you will attach to a widget on your GoHighLevel pages. You will not use its native booking widget; instead, you will replace it with the Calendly embed.
Step 3: Add The Calendar Widget In GoHighLevel
To display Calendly on a page, you must first add a calendar element in the GoHighLevel page or funnel builder.
-
Go to Sites in your GoHighLevel sub‑account.
-
Open the Funnel or Website page where you want to show your Calendly scheduler.
-
Click Edit to open the page in the builder.
-
From the elements panel, drag and drop the Calendar element onto the page.
-
In the calendar settings panel, select the GoHighLevel calendar you configured in the earlier step.
At this stage, the page shows the default HighLevel calendar widget. You will convert this widget into a Calendly view by changing the source type and adding the embed link.
Step 4: Replace The Widget With Your Calendly Link
Inside the GoHighLevel builder, you can change the calendar element from the native scheduler to an external source such as Calendly.
-
Click on the calendar element you previously added.
-
In the right‑hand settings panel, locate the option for Calendar Type or Source.
-
Choose the option that allows you to use an external calendar link (for example, “Use Custom iFrame” or similar wording in your GoHighLevel interface).
-
Paste the Calendly embed URL or the iFrame snippet you copied from your Calendly account.
-
Adjust height, width, and responsive settings so the Calendly booking form displays correctly on desktop and mobile.
When you save and preview the page, your visitors will see the Calendly scheduler embedded directly inside your GoHighLevel page instead of the standard calendar view.
Step 5: Test The Calendly & GoHighLevel Integration
Before sending traffic, always test the new booking page to ensure the GoHighLevel layout and Calendly widget work smoothly together.
-
Open the live page URL in a private or incognito browser window.
-
Confirm that the Calendly calendar loads correctly and is not cut off.
-
Book a test appointment using a different email address than your admin account.
-
Check your Calendly dashboard to verify the event was scheduled.
-
Check your GoHighLevel contact list or pipeline to ensure any connected automations run as expected if you have a workflow that captures data from that lead source.
If anything looks misaligned, return to the GoHighLevel builder and adjust spacing, padding, or the iFrame height until the experience is clean and easy to use.
Managing Availability Between Calendly And GoHighLevel
Because Calendly controls availability, you should manage working hours and blocked times directly within Calendly instead of expecting the GoHighLevel calendar to override it.
Recommended practices:
- Set your schedule in Calendly: Define available days and times inside each event type.
- Avoid double booking: If you also use native GoHighLevel calendars, make sure any overlapping events are synchronized through your calendar tools (such as Google or Outlook) so both systems read the same busy times.
- Coordinate time zones: Confirm that time zone settings in Calendly match your expectations for your GoHighLevel funnels and website visitors.
Using GoHighLevel Automation With Calendly Leads
While Calendly is responsible for the booking interface, you can still leverage GoHighLevel automation once those leads are in your CRM.
Typical options include:
- Adding new contacts who schedule in Calendly into specific GoHighLevel pipelines.
- Triggering workflows for appointment reminders or follow‑ups once a contact record exists in the system.
- Tagging or segmenting contacts based on the funnel or page that contained the Calendly widget.
