On each of your bookable events, you can set a number of limitations that control when you are available to be booked for that type of event in the Availability section. These include:

When determining what day and time blocks are open for a bookable event, you will set which availability schedule you want Táve to use here. You will either choose an existing availability schedule, or create a new one on the fly to be configured later in the Availability sidebar.

To configure your availability schedules, head to the Availability section in the Scheduling sidebar:

When building out your availability schedule, you will see at the top of the schedule all of the bookable events on your account that are currently using that schedule:

The best place to start in creating your availability schedule is through the repeating weekly hours section, where you can go through the Edit All Days button to set the common time blocks when you are available throughout the week.

You can add and copy blocks of time across each day of the week. You'll notice below that Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays have different meeting availability from Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Selecting the + icon will allow you to add additional time blocks to select days of the week, and the copy icon will give you the option to duplicate a specific time block to other days of the week.

Now that you've set your general availability for each day, you can override these defaults for specific calendar dates. This is handy if you know you'll be on vacation for a week, or you'd like to ensure that no one books a meeting with you on certain holidays or family birthdays.

To adjust the availability for a specific date, you can click into the date on the Specific Days calendar view, and select any surrounding dates you'd like to edit in bulk with the same adjustments. Now you can edit the existing time block, add additional ones, or clear all times entirely so nothing can be booked on these dates.

The last thing to consider when setting your availability schedule is what types of events you'd like to block out your availability. For example, do you want new bookings to be blocked during times that you have tentative events pending for?

You can choose to have all confirmed events block availability, which will check for conflicts on your Táve calendar and any connected calendars in your Táve account. All confirmed events on any of those calendars will block availability from showing on your bookable event at the same time:

Alternatively, if you'd like to specify which event types block availability you can choose Only certain event types and select/deselect from the list. This is a great option if you have specific event types or connected calendars that you want to exclude from being checked, such as a personal calendar feed:

If you'd like to have confirmed and tentative events both checked for conflicts, you'll want to uncheck the 'Only confirmed events block availability' option. You can then select whether you want All events checked for conflicts (all confirmed and all tentative events) or Only certain event types checked for conflicts (confirmed and tentative events from only those options selected):

If you've set up any Mini Sessions bookable events, the time slots offered will block out your availability on other bookable events automatically. All the Mini Session time slots set up will block out availability whether that slot has been booked yet or not. This is to prevent any bookings for days/times that you're offering Mini Sessions for.

If you'd like to exclude Mini Sessions from blocking out your availability on a particular bookable event, you can set your conflict configuration to check 'Only certain event types' and deselect the event type being used on your Mini Sessions.
