Generate, copy, and save your key
Click the Generate API Key button for the specific account or team you want to automate. A key will be generated.

Access keys later from the Make Setup page
Once you install Make on your account, you can see all the API keys for all existing and future personal and team accounts on the Make Setup page.
Step 2: Connect Cal ID to Make
Keep the API Key from Step 1 handy — you’ll paste it into Make to authorize the connection.

Click the Create a new scenario button in the top right.

Choose a trigger

Add connection
Click the Add button in the module settings and paste the API Key you copied from Cal ID earlier, then click Save. Cal ID is now connected successfully with Make.
Step 3: Send data to other apps
Once Cal ID is connected, you can add “Modules” to your scenario to send that booking data elsewhere:- Google Sheets: Automatically add a new row with the attendee’s name and email.
- CRM (HubSpot/Salesforce): Create a new contact or lead automatically.
- Communication: Send a custom notification to a Slack channel or via a private server.
Remember to Turn On or Save the scenario in Make to start processing your bookings.
