My Calendar

My Calendar is where you control Default’s view of your availability. You set the scheduling preferences that apply to every event you host, choose which calendar your booked meetings write to, and manage the work schedules and out-of-office time that decide when you can be booked.

Open Settings from the Dock (the app bar at the bottom of the screen), then select My Calendar under My Profile. The page has two sections: Personal Preferences and Calendars. Select Save Changes when you’re done, or Cancel to discard edits.

Personal preferences

Personal Preferences holds the scheduling controls that apply across your events, plus a shortcut to your work hours.

Field	What it is	How to set it
Vacation mode	Pauses new bookings while you have an active out-of-office block. When you have an OOO block on your calendar, no new meetings can be scheduled during that period.	Select Manage to open Out of Office and add a block. Vacation mode is active automatically whenever a block covers the requested time.
Add buffer events to calendar	Creates a real event on your connected calendar for each pre- and post-meeting buffer, instead of only blocking the time inside Default.	Toggle it on. Turning it off also turns off Allow buffer overlap.
Allow buffer overlap	Lets the pre- and post-meeting buffers from back-to-back meetings overlap, instead of each buffer blocking its own separate time.	Toggle it on. This control only appears while Add buffer events to calendar is on.
Pre-Meeting Buffer	Minutes blocked before each meeting so you have time to prepare.	Choose a duration from the dropdown. Options run from `0 min` to `60 min` in steps. Default is `15 min`.
Post-Meeting Buffer	Minutes blocked after each meeting so you have time to wrap up before the next one.	Choose a duration from the same options. Default is `15 min`.
Notice Period	The minimum lead time before a slot can be booked. Prevents last-minute bookings.	Choose from No notice, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, 8 hours, 1 day, or 2 days. Default is `1 hour`.
Work Hours	A shortcut to your work schedules.	Select Manage to open Work Hours.

Buffers and the notice period apply across all events you host. If you need different settings for a specific event type, those can be configured on the event itself in Scheduling.

Calendars

Calendars sets which connected calendar receives your new meeting invites.

Field	What it is	How to set it
Primary Calendar	The connected calendar that Default writes new meeting events to.	Select a calendar from the dropdown. The list shows every calendar you’ve connected under Integrations, identified by its account email. To add one, select Add a calendar from the same dropdown. This takes you to Integrations.

Work hours and out of office

Two linked pages manage the schedule behind your availability:

Work Hours: set the days and times you’re open for bookings. Default uses your primary schedule to generate the open slots on your events.
Out of Office: block date ranges when you’re away. While a block is active, Vacation mode pauses new bookings for those dates.
