Personal access tokens overview

Follow the procedures below to generate a personal access token and authenticate an internal or private application with the Calendly API v2. Do not share your personal access token with public sources or reuse it across applications.

To further secure your personal access tokens, we do not display or store them in your Calendly account. After generation, they’re unretrievable.

  • Log in to your Calendly account

  • Go to the Integrations Page

  • Select the API & Webhooks tile

  • If you have no prior personal access tokens, select Get a token now under Personal Access Tokens.

  • If you already have a token, select Generate new token under Your personal access tokens.

  • At Create your personal access token, create an identifiable name for your token and select Create Token, then Copy token.

Note: If you need to register and authenticate a public application, see: Creating an OAuth app

Scopes

Based on the Calendly data and functionality that your app will require access to, you’ll provide a list of scopes when creating a personal access token.
