Contacts FAQs
Contacts help you keep track of people you schedule meetings with. You can use Contacts to view meeting history, see basic details, and schedule follow-up meetings.
When someone books a meeting with you, Calendly creates a contact using the name and email they enter during scheduling.
If you've deleted a contact, Calendly stops auto-creating that contact in your system. If they schedule with you again in the future, you can manually create a new contact for them.

You can edit a contact from the Contacts page or from the Contact details view. Any updates you make are saved to that contact.
