Convert calendar availability to shareable format

To help you convert calendar availability into a shareable format, here are a few streamlined methods, depending on your tool or platform:


1. Google Calendar

To share specific availability:

  1. Open Google Calendar.

  2. Click “+ Create” → Add your availability in the title/description.

  3. Click “More options”.

  4. Under “Busy/Free”, select Free.

  5. Set your time zone, and make it public or share with specific people.

  6. Click “Copy link to this event” or use “Get shareable link” via “Publish event”.

  7. Share this link via email or messaging.

To share a general availability calendar:

  • Go to Settings → Settings for my calendars.

  • Under “Access permissions,” select Make available to public or share with specific people.

  • Copy the public URL under “Integrate calendar.”


2. Microsoft Outlook Calendar

  2. Create events for your availability, marked as “Free”.

  3. Click on the calendar name > Sharing Settings.

4. Convert to Manual Format (Text or Table)

If you prefer a simple text format to share in messages or on your site:

yaml
📅 My Availability: - Monday: 9 AM 12 PM, 2 PM 4 PM - Tuesday: 10 AM 1 PM - Wednesday: Unavailable - Thursday: 1 PM 5 PM - Friday: 9 AM 12 PM

Or a table:
