Wave Runner supports AI-powered appointment booking during live calls. When you connect a calendar, your agent offers available time slots to callers and confirms bookings without any human involvement. Once a booking is made, the appointment details are available as variables in post-call workflows. Two calendar providers are supported: Cal.com (API key) and Google Calendar (OAuth).

​
Connecting Cal.com

1

Generate a Cal.com API key

In your Cal.com account, go to Settings → Developer → API Keys and create a new API key. Copy the key — it starts with cal_live_.
2

Open the integrations page in Wave Runner

Go to Settings → Integrations and find the Calendar section.
3

Click Connect Calendar

Click Connect Calendar on the calendar card. A dialog opens.
4

Select Cal.com as the provider

In the Calendar Provider dropdown, select Cal.com.
5

Enter your credentials

Fill in the following fields:
  • Label — a name for this connection, e.g. Sales Booking Calendar
  • API Key — paste your cal_live_... key
6

Save the connection

Click Connect Calendar. The connection appears in the calendar card with an Active badge.
The event type is selected when you configure the individual agent, not here. You can connect multiple Cal.com accounts and assign different event types to different agents.

​
Connecting Google Calendar

1

Open the integrations page in Wave Runner

Go to Settings → Integrations and find the Calendar section.
2

Click Connect Calendar

Click Connect Calendar on the calendar card.
3

Select Google Calendar as the provider

In the Calendar Provider dropdown, select Google Calendar.
4

Authorize with Google

Click Connect Calendar and complete the Google OAuth flow. Grant Wave Runner permission to view and manage your calendar events.
5

Confirm the connection

Google redirects you back to Wave Runner. The calendar card shows the connected Google account with an Active badge.

​
How agents book appointments

Once a calendar is connected, enable booking on a per-agent basis:
  1. Open or create an agent under Assistants.
  2. In the agent configuration, go to the Calendar tab.
  3. Select the connected calendar and, for Cal.com, choose the event type.
  4. Save the agent.
During a call, when the conversation reaches a booking intent, the agent queries your calendar for available slots in real time and presents options to the caller. When the caller confirms a time, the agent creates the booking and receives confirmation back into the call context.
Set a reasonable buffer time on your Cal.com event type (e.g. 15 minutes between bookings) so the agent does not offer back-to-back slots.

​
Appointment variables

After a call where a booking was made, the appointment data is available in post-call workflows.

​
Example: send a confirmation SMS after booking

Add an End of Call trigger, a Condition node checking {appointment.status} == 'confirmed', then a Send SMS node:

​
Testing calendar booking

1

Start a test call

Open your agent and click Test Call to start a browser-based call.
2

Ask the agent to book an appointment

Say something like “I’d like to schedule a call.” The agent responds with available time slots from your connected calendar.
3

Confirm a slot

Select a time. The agent confirms the booking and a new event appears in your Cal.com or Google Calendar within a few seconds.
4

Check the workflow variables

If you have a post-call workflow connected to this agent, open the Executions log and confirm {appointment.status} and the other appointment variables are populated correctly.
Test bookings create real calendar events. Delete the test event after testing, or use a separate Cal.com event type or Google Calendar dedicated to testing.

​
Removing a calendar connection

1

Open the integrations page

Go to Settings → Integrations.
2

Click Configure on the calendar card

The dialog lists all connected calendar accounts.
3

Click the trash icon next to the connection

Confirm the removal. Wave Runner immediately stops using that connection for booking.
Removing a calendar connection does not cancel existing bookings. Agents that relied on the removed connection will fail to book new appointments until you connect a replacement and update the agent configuration.
