result

FieldTypeExample
booking
The booking Cal.com returned, with id, uid, title, status, start, end, duration, eventTypeId, attendees and hosts. Empty when the uid named a recurring booking — see recurrences.
object—
recurrences
Every occurrence, when the uid named a recurring booking. Empty for a normal booking.
array—
is_recurring
True when Cal.com answered with a list of occurrences rather than a single booking, so the next node reads the right key.
booleanfalse
count
How many bookings this result carries.
number1
{
  "booking": {},
  "count": 1,
  "is_recurring": false,
  "recurrences": []
}

Notes

  • Cal.com cannot cancel every occurrence of a recurring seated booking in one call; run this node once per occurrence.

See Cancel Booking run in a workflow.

In a technical demo we add the Cal.com connection, drop the node on the canvas and let Workflow Health pre-flight it before the first real run.
