I’d love to see native support for multi-session packages in SavvyCal. Use case: I want to sell an “Office Hours 5-Pack." After purchase, the customer should be able to book five separate time slots on my calendar at their own convenience—without having to pay each time or manually request new links. Currently, there’s no built-in way to: • Sell access to multiple sessions as a bundle • Track redemptions against a package balance • Let users self-schedule remaining sessions from a single package link This functionality is available in tools like [redacted so as not to promote a competitor but will share with you directly] , and it’s essential for coaches, consultants, and fractional professionals who offer multi-call packages. Ideal workflow: 1. User purchases a package (e.g. 5 sessions for $888) via Stripe. 2. SavvyCal generates a unique booking link or redemption code. 3. User can schedule 5 sessions over time using that code or link. 4. The system automatically tracks how many sessions are left. Bonus features that would help: • Expiration date for redemption • Per-package calendar availability • Client portal or dashboard to view remaining sessions This would dramatically improve the experience for service providers like myself who operate on multi-call models. Please consider adding this! It would prevent me from having to switch platforms! Thanks!

Summary It is currently difficult to reliably verify SavvyCal webhook signatures when using certain frameworks. Since the HMAC signature is generated from the exact raw request payload , if only the parsed JSON is available, the signature cannot be reproduced. This makes proper verification impossible in those environments. --- ### Problem * Signature verification requires the raw string of the request body. * Many frameworks parse the JSON body before user code can access it. * Once parsed, the original raw string (with its exact whitespace, key ordering, and encoding) is lost. * Attempting to JSON.stringify the parsed body is unreliable and does not consistently match the string SavvyCal used. * As a result, webhook authenticity cannot be guaranteed in these setups. --- ### Why This Matters * Security: Without reliable verification, webhook endpoints are vulnerable to spoofed requests. * Developer Experience: Many developers integrating with SavvyCal don’t have low-level access to the raw request body. This creates friction and prevents secure usage. --- ### Suggested Solutions #### 1. Static Secret Verification (Preferred) Provide an option for webhooks to include a static, pre-shared secret header (e.g., x-savvycal-secret ) instead of an HMAC over the body. * This is simpler to implement in environments without raw-body access. * Security is still strong, provided HTTPS is used and the secret is sufficiently random. * Many webhook providers offer this as a fallback option for exactly this reason (e.g., Slack’s signing secret vs GitHub’s secret ). #### 2. Dual Signature Headers Include both: * The existing x-savvycal-signature (HMAC of raw body). * An optional x-savvycal-secret (static). This would keep backward compatibility while giving developers flexibility. #### 3. Optional Canonical JSON Serialization If sticking with HMAC verification only, provide a guarantee that the body is always serialized using a canonical JSON format (no whitespace differences, predictable key ordering, UTF-8 encoding). * This would allow developers to JSON.stringify the parsed object and reliably match your HMAC. * While less flexible, it makes signature verification feasible without needing raw-body access. --- ### Benefits * Broader compatibility with modern frameworks and headless CMS platforms. * Easier onboarding for developers integrating webhooks. * Improved security posture, since more teams would be able to verify webhooks correctly instead of skipping verification.

Having arrow buttons be the only way to advance through weeks on the scheduler is sub-optimal. Please give us the ability to navigate weeks by using the horizontal mouse / trackpad scroll. Also allow forward / back through weeks using the keyboard arrow keys. Let's make the navigation experience as nice as you've made the interface.

E.g. We send a prospect to a page where they can indicate some preferences - speak with someone in the UK / US. I am using X or Y tech. Use these variables selected to decide which person on a round robin link should receive the allocation.

It would be great if SavvyCal could display the text of the booking page in French

Dear SavvyCal Team, I am writing to propose a significant feature enhancement that would greatly benefit users with complex, multi-organizational calendar needs, like myself. My Scenario: As a freelancer, my schedule is distributed across several Google Calendars: My primary Google Calendar (my main calendar, which some colleagues check directly). - A personal Google Calendar. - My own company's Google Workspace calendar. Three separate Google Workspace calendars, one for each of the different client companies I work with. Current Functionality and Its Limitation: SavvyCal excels at aggregating availability from all these connected calendars to present a consolidated view on my SavvyCal booking links. This is incredibly useful for external parties who use my links to schedule meetings. However, a crucial challenge arises because my colleagues within these various companies (including my own and the client organizations) do not always use my SavvyCal booking link. Instead, they often check my availability directly within their native calendar applications, which primarily view my main Google Calendar. The Problem: Currently, if I have an event in one of my client's calendars, or my personal calendar, that time is correctly shown as "unavailable" on my SavvyCal booking page. However, this "busy" status does not automatically reflect as a blocked event in my primary Google Calendar. This means colleagues looking at my primary calendar directly see me as free, leading to potential scheduling conflicts, double-bookings, and a frustrating back-and-forth to clarify availability. Proposed Feature: Specialized Calendar Synchronization I propose that SavvyCal develop a feature that allows users to designate a "master" or "primary" Google Calendar, and then automatically write "busy" events into this master calendar based on busy times detected in all other connected calendars. Essentially, SavvyCal would act as a sophisticated calendar synchronization tool for the user's own calendar ecosystem. This would involve: Identifying busy slots across all connected calendars (personal, own company, client companies). _ Creating a "busy" or "tentative" block (perhaps with customizable event titles like "Busy - External Meeting") in the designated primary Google Calendar for these times. Ensuring these blocks are updated dynamically as my external calendar events change. Benefits: - True Availability Reflection: My primary Google Calendar would accurately reflect my true availability, regardless of which underlying calendar holds the blocking event. Reduced Conflicts: Colleagues checking my primary calendar directly would immediately see when I'm genuinely unavailable, minimizing scheduling errors. Improved Collaboration: Streamlines internal scheduling processes across different organizations. Enhanced User Experience: Eliminates the need for manual blocking or relying on separate, third-party synchronization tools. This enhancement would transform SavvyCal from solely an external booking tool into a comprehensive personal availability management hub, providing immense value to users like myself.

I’ve been using SavvyCal for my coaching business and love how smooth the booking experience is for clients using my public links. That said, there's one part of the workflow that's very cumbersome: booking sessions on behalf of clients. When I am at the end of my coaching call, I like to coordinate and book our next coaching session. Right now, my public booking links show limited availability by design. But when I’m manually scheduling for a client, I often want to give them access to "unpublished" availability. To make that work, I currently have to: Manually add a time override to make the hidden time slot bookable Open the link in an incognito window (so SavvyCal doesn’t assume I’m booking for myself) Fill in their name and email manually It works — but it’s clunky and time-consuming. And I find it difficult to do while the client is still on the call. What I’d love to see: A way to schedule directly from the admin dashboard, where I can: Choose the time slot (even if it’s outside public availability) Enter client name/email Hook them into that booking link so they get confirmation, reminders, and rescheduling links, etc, as if they had booked it themselves. This would streamline the workflow significantly for those of us who both share public booking links and book more customized sessions for our clients. I am considering moving to Acuity or some other system as a result of this. I still need to determine what alternatives exist, but this is not sustainable for me.

The ability to modify a scheduled event title in SavvyCal and when edited in SavvyCal, reflect that in Google Calendar

Can you cancel a doctor's appointment at the last minute? You can't do that, because it's impolite. Sometimes it's justified, sometimes not. 24h or 48h before the appointment, it's up to the host to decide whether cancelling or rescheduling is possible, not the guest. Please, I think this feature is really basic and important for anyone who gives their time online.
