How do I limit events to date range?

Is it possible to set up events to a particular date or a range of dates? Like only available on 25/1-27/1/2025?

To limit events to a specific date range, such as only being available from January 25th to January 27th, 2025, you can use the periodStartDate and periodEndDate properties in the API. These properties are part of the configuration for setting a bookable period when the periodType is set to 'range'. Here is an example configuration:

{
  "periodType": "range",
  "periodStartDate": "2025-01-25T00:00:00Z",
  "periodEndDate": "2025-01-27T23:59:59Z"
}

This setup ensures that events are only bookable within the specified date range. Make sure to adjust the time zone as needed for your specific use case ^[1].

If you prefer to configure this through the Cal.com user interface, you can use the DateRangePicker component to manually select a start and end date. This component allows you to visually confirm and set the date range directly in the interface ^[2].

How to set lunch break during the available hours?

[dosubot[bot]]

To set a lunch break during available hours in Cal.com, you can utilize the availability settings defined in the codebase. Specifically, the AvailabilityFormValues type includes a schedule and dateOverrides, which can be used to specify time ranges for breaks or exceptions in the availability schedule ^[1].

In the user interface, you would typically adjust your availability settings to include breaks by specifying the start and end times for your available hours and then adding a break period within those hours. This can be done by setting a time range for the break in the dateOverrides or similar configuration options, depending on how the UI is structured to handle these settings.
