# Event types

Event types are your pre-set meetings, events, consultations, etc., which you can share with potential attendees. You can create as many event types as you need with each account, and each event type is customizable in terms of its name, URL, duration, availability, and location of the event.

Event types allow you to create different events for different occasions when booking a time with you in your calendar. These can be named differently, have different time durations and configurations.

{% hint style="info" %}
**For example:** A HR person could have a "Job Interview" event type lasting 30 minutes, a "Performance Review" event type for 60 minutes both with different settings on each.
{% endhint %}

You can create event types either for your personal Cal.com link, or for your team (if you've joined one). Personal event types set up a meeting where people can book just you, whereas team event types allow you to either book one person from the team, or multiple people at the same time.​

Once you preview the URL of your event type, that event type's availability will show in the form of slots that are available for booking. Your event type can also check your integrated calendar for conflicts; any current events in your calendar will occupy the associated time slot with that calendar event.&#x20;

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://calcom.gitbook.io/docs/core-features/event-types.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
