Nylas Scheduler provides external, manual, and automatic confirmation methods to aid users in making informed choices based on their specific needs.
In Nylas Scheduler, the confirmation_method parameter dictates the flow of event booking. Each method offers a different level of automation and interaction from Nylas, allowing for a tailored scheduling experience.
1. External Booking Flow (external)
When the confirmation_method is set to external, the user application controls the entire booking process. In this mode:
- Your application manages event creation and email notifications.
- Nylas does not intervene in event creation or email sending.
- Nylas Scheduler is used to showcase only the available timeslots based on the scheduler configuration, with the application handling the rest of the booking flow.
Key Features:
- The customer application has full control over the booking flow.
- No automatic event creation or email sending from Nylas.
2. Manual Booking Flow (manual)

- Email notifications are sent based on the Scheduler configuration.
- Event booking is finalized once the organizer confirms the booking.
Key Features:
- Nylas handles event creation and email notifications.
