Use Pabbly Connect webhooks to forward Cal ID booking events to over 1,000 apps so meetings automatically trigger emails, CRM updates, and other tasks.
Pabbly Connect is an automation platform that allows you to send your Cal ID booking data to over 1,000+ other applications. Unlike other integrations, Pabbly uses a Webhook system to “listen” for new bookings and instantly trigger your workflows.
That webhook approach is what sets Pabbly apart from Cal ID’s other automation apps: Zapier and Make both authenticate with an API key instead. Pick whichever platform you already build in — the Cal ID triggers are the same.
In your Cal ID dashboard, click on the Apps tab in the left sidebar. Search for “Pabbly Connect” and click Install.

Redirect to Pabbly
You will be automatically sent to the Pabbly website. Select the second app you want to connect (e.g., Google Sheets, a CRM, or an Email tool) and click Start to create your automation flow.
The Webhook URL is the link that connects Pabbly to Cal ID. Copy it in this step and keep it ready — you’ll paste it into Cal ID in Step 3.

You can set up the webhook globally (for all events) or for just one specific event type.

Map your data
Once Pabbly receives the data, you must send it to your destination app (e.g., Google Sheets). Mapping means matching the information Cal ID sent (like “Attendee Name”) to the correct field in your next app (like “Customer Name” column). Carefully map fields like Email, Phone Number, and Meeting Time to make sure the data lands in the right place without errors.
