Steps

  1. Decide whether the need is a one-off calendar event, a recurring timetable series, or an appointment group with reservable slots
  2. For a timetable series, POST a timetable definition with a simple recurrence pattern to auto-generate the calendar events
  3. For appointment slots, create an appointment group scoped to a course/section and specify the available time slots
  4. Have students or staff reserve a specific slot via the reserve endpoint, which returns the new reservation
  5. Update or delete individual calendar events afterward using the standard calendar event update/delete endpoints
