Direct answer: Calendly's remote MCP server exposes event types, availability, scheduling links, and supported booking actions through OAuth 2.1. Aurora's catalog uses Calendly's official endpoint, enabling a verified connection to reduce meeting coordination work without giving an agent permission to choose invitees, times, or cancellations on its own.
This guide is for teams using Finta as relationship intelligence around a capital, investor, customer, or company-building workflow. Calendly remains the source system for its records. Aurora can use only the context and actions exposed to the connected account.
How the Calendly connection works
| Connection detail | Current Finta guidance |
|---|---|
| Classification | Catalog MCP |
| Configured endpoint | https://mcp.calendly.com |
| Authentication and transport | Provider OAuth through Aurora; Streamable HTTP |
| Source of truth | Calendly remains authoritative for provider records, permissions, and action results. |
| Human control | Review external communication, record changes, financial actions, publishing, deletion, and other consequential work before execution. |
What you can use it for
- List permitted event types and review host availability for a defined date range.
- Create provider-supported scheduling or one-time links for an approved meeting type.
- Retrieve scheduled event details needed for meeting preparation and follow-through.
- Prepare supported booking, availability, or cancellation actions for explicit human confirmation.
These uses summarize the current provider documentation and Finta catalog purpose. The exact tool inventory varies by provider version, plan, workspace, user permissions, region, and authorization scopes.
Relationship intelligence workflows for Calendly
Investor meeting coordination
Outcome: An approved scheduling option that respects the right host, event type, time zone, and relationship context.
- Confirm the investor, meeting purpose, host, duration, and required attendees.
- Retrieve the appropriate event type and relevant availability window.
- Prepare a scheduling or one-time link plus the draft message that explains the meeting context.
Human decision: The relationship owner confirms the invitee, link, time zone, and message before sharing it.
Fundraising office hours or diligence scheduling
Outcome: A controlled block of availability for recurring investor conversations without exposing unrelated calendar time.
- Identify the approved event type and hosts for the office-hours or diligence workflow.
- Review available windows and booking constraints for the designated period.
- Prepare the approved link and record the intended audience and expiration or reuse policy.
Human decision: An owner approves availability changes and distribution of the link.
How to connect Calendly to Aurora
- Choose Calendly in Aurora's Apps tray.
- Complete Calendly OAuth 2.1 with PKCE and dynamic client registration through the provider flow.
- Review the required mcp:scheduling:read and mcp:scheduling:write scopes before granting access.
- Retrieve event types and availability for a controlled host to validate the connection.
- Do not create or cancel an event until the host confirms the exact action.
Open the official Finta apps directory to confirm the catalog entry before authorizing a provider account.
Permissions and approval boundary
Calendly's MCP authorization includes scheduling read and write scopes. Aurora can retrieve and prepare, but the host must approve the event type, attendees, time zone, availability change, booking, reschedule, or cancellation before any consequential tool runs.
Limitations to understand
- Calendly requires its OAuth flow and does not support a manual non-OAuth bearer setup for this server.
- Available tools and calendars depend on the connected user's Calendly plan, organization, and permissions.
- Free time is not permission to schedule, and a booking is not evidence of investor interest.
- Time zones, buffers, routing rules, and host availability must be checked in the provider record.
Verification checklist
- Confirm https://mcp.calendly.com and oauth_dynamic in the live Aurora catalog.
- Complete OAuth and capture the scopes actually granted.
- List one known event type and compare its duration and host with Calendly.
- Retrieve availability for a narrow test window and confirm the time zone.
- Create a one-time test link only after owner approval, then verify it in Calendly.
- Confirm the page does not promise autonomous booking, rescheduling, or cancellation.
Verification status: On 2026-08-22, Finta confirmed that this connector appears in the enabled production Aurora catalog and reviewed the configured endpoint, authentication type, and first-party sources listed below. This is not a claim that every provider tool or an authenticated end-to-end action has been tested for every account.
