Use this interactive demo to learn how to generate and copy your Calendly API key.

Quick summary

The Calendly API key (personal access token) lets you authenticate API requests and connect Calendly to external tools and workflows. You can generate a new token directly from the Integrations & apps section in your Calendly account settings.

Steps

Open your Calendly account and click on the Integrations & apps tab in the left-hand sidebar.
Select API and webhooks from the integrations menu.
Under Your personal access tokens, click Generate New Token to create a new token.
Enter an identifiable name for your token in the Create your personal access token form, then click Create token.
Click Copy token to copy your new Calendly API key to your clipboard.

📌 Why this matters

The Calendly API key enables developers and teams to programmatically access scheduling data, automate booking workflows, and integrate Calendly with CRMs, helpdesks, and custom applications. Without a valid personal access token, API requests to Calendly will fail, blocking any integration pipeline. Generating and securely storing your Calendly API key is the essential first step for building any automated scheduling integration. This demo makes the token generation process fast and error-free for both technical and non-technical users.
