Use dynamic variables in Cal ID to customize how each booking appears on your calendar and the booker’s calendar with names, event types, and questions.
Change how meetings appear on both your calendar and your booker’s calendar. With Custom Event Names, you can replace the generic default title with dynamic variables that pull in specific details from each booking automatically.By default, Cal ID often titles events as {Event type title} with {Scheduler}. Customizing this makes your calendar far more scannable.
Click on the Advanced tab in the top navigation bar.
4
Find "Event Name"
Scroll to the Event name field.
5
Edit the title
Type your desired format using the variables (e.g., {Event type title} | {Scheduler}).
Naming events with dynamic variables
6
Save
Click the Save button at the top right.
Split names: If you’ve enabled “Split full name into first and last name” on your booking page, you can also use more specific variables like {Scheduler first name} in your event title.
