Weekly availability defines the recurring periods offered by a Google Calendar appointment schedule. It should describe the hours you actually intend to accept bookings. These hours are separate from ordinary calendar working hours and from one event’s start and end time.
Open the intended schedule
Use Calendar on a computer and create or edit the Appointment schedule. Confirm the schedule title and its time zone first. A correct weekday and clock time in the wrong zone can offer a very different appointment to visitors.
Set the repeating pattern
In the availability section, choose the weekly pattern and enter each day’s available period. Mark days unavailable when they should not accept appointments. Google’s setup guidance offers controls to add periods and copy an appropriate time pattern to other days.
Review the appointment duration against the length of each period. The hours define potential availability; calendar conflicts, minimum notice, and other booking settings can remove otherwise expected times.
Verify the future page
Save the schedule and inspect its booking page across several weeks, including a week near a regional clock change when relevant. Check both weekdays and closed days. Use date-specific adjustments for holidays rather than rewriting a normal weekly pattern unnecessarily. Do not interpret an empty day as proof that the weekly hours were lost until conflicts and scheduling-window restrictions have been checked. Keep the page’s description consistent with the actual offered times. The completed setup should give visitors a reliable recurring pattern while preserving the separate safeguards that prevent bookings outside the intended dates or during existing commitments.
