What you'll need

  • An active Calendly account
  • An active Slack account with permission to install apps
  • A free Arahi AI account (sign up takes 30 seconds)
1

Create your Arahi AI account

Sign up at app.arahi.ai — it's free and takes 30 seconds. No credit card required. You'll land on the dashboard where you can create your first workflow.

2

Authenticate Calendly

Click "Add Connection" and select Calendly from the app directory. You'll be redirected to Calendly's authorization page. Grant Arahi access to your workspaces, databases, pages, and tasks. You select which workspaces the integration can read and write to.

3

Authenticate Slack

Same process for Slack. Click "Add Connection," select Slack, and authorize access. Grant Arahi permission to read and post messages in your selected channels. You control which channels the integration can access.

4

Choose your trigger

Select what event starts the workflow. For this integration, popular triggers include: new item created in calendly or new message received in slack. The trigger fires automatically whenever that event happens — no manual intervention.

5

Configure the action

Define what happens when the trigger fires. For example: send message in slack. Map the data fields between Calendly and Slack so the right information lands in the right place.

6

Test and activate

Run a test to confirm data flows correctly between Calendly and Slack. Check that the fields map as expected, then toggle the workflow on. It runs 24/7 from here — Arahi handles retries, error logging, and monitoring automatically.

No coding is required. Arahi's visual workflow builder lets you configure triggers, actions, and field mapping with clicks. If you can use Calendly and Slack, you can set up the integration. Most users are running their first workflow within 10 minutes.
