In Cal ID, every event type has a unique Event Type ID. You might need this ID if you are using our API, setting up advanced integrations, or troubleshooting specific booking workflows.

​
How to find your event type ID

Finding your ID is quick and can be done directly from your browser’s address bar while editing your event.

​
Steps to locate the ID

1

Log in to your Cal ID dashboard

Open your Cal ID dashboard.
2

Navigate to Event Types

Go to the Event Types tab in the left-hand sidebar.
3

Edit the event

Find the specific event you are interested in and click the Edit button.
4

Look at the URL

Once the edit page loads, look at the URL in your browser’s address bar.
5

Read the ID

The Event Type ID is the number located in the URL.
Example: If your URL looks like this: https://cal.id/event-types/12345?tabName=Setup — your Event Type ID is 12345.

Why would you need this ID?

  • API Integrations: If you are building a custom app or website that needs to trigger actions based on a specific event.
  • Webhooks: To identify which event type triggered a specific notification.
  • Custom Styles: When using advanced CSS or scripts to modify the look of a specific booking page.
  • Support: Our team may ask for this ID to help investigate issues with a particular event.
If you need to share multiple IDs for a team project, it’s a good idea to keep a simple spreadsheet or document with the Event Name and its corresponding Event Type ID. This saves you from having to click into every event type every time you need a specific ID for an integration.
