Overview
When scheduling an appointment, before availability is displayed, Element451 will check your free time on the linked calendar within the constraints of that Appointment Type's availability setting.
Connecting your calendar only allows Element451 to detect busy, out of office and other conflicts for scheduling appointments. It does not allow Element451 to write new events directly to your calendar.
