How can I create a scheduling form with a calendar for open slots?

    I'd like to build a form that allows users to view a calendar, see open slots, and select an open time and schedule their own appointment.  When a user selects a time, that time then becomes unavailable.  I would also need the owner of the form to be able to block out times.

    Is this possible?

    The closest solution I would suggest to what you kindly described is the Date Reservation widget: https://widgets.jotform.com/widget/date_reservation

    We have a guide on how to add a widget to your form here: https://www.jotform.com/help/252-How-to-Add-a-Widget-to-your-Form

    I hope this helps. If you need further assistance please let us know. Thank you.

    Aidan,
    Thanks for the quick response. This is almost exactly what I'm looking for. However, I need it to be granular down to the hour, so that people can choose a 1-hour time block, rather than a whole day.
    Thank you!
