.. _set-up-external-scheduler:
Set up an external scheduler for appointments
=============================================
Castellum allows the use of an external scheduler. That way subjects can select
the dates for appointments for study sessions themselves.
.. note::
Note that this is an optional feature which may not be activated in your setup.
If the links referenced in this guide are missing from the user interface, the
feature is not installed. If you would like to use it, please talk to the
administrator of your castellum instance.
1. Find the scheduler link in castellum
- On the startpage, click **Studies**.
- In the studies list, select a study by clicking **Details**.
- Go to the **Sessions** tab.
- If there are no sessions yet, create some:
:ref:`study-recruitment-settings`
- Next to a session, click **Update**.
- Click **New schedule**.
2. Create a new schedule in the scheduler
- On the startpage, click **Create new**.
- Add a meaningful title such as the name of the session this schedule
refers to.
- Under "Timeslots", add all dates on which appointments are available
and each time confirm with **Add date**. The format depends on your browser
settings. Each date will add a new row to the table below.
- On the next line, add all times on which appointments are available and
each time confirm with **Add time**. The format depends on your browser
settings. Each date will add a new column to the table below.
- Clicking on the checkboxes allows to deactivate individual slots for
refinement.
- Clicking on the bin symbol removes the entire row or column.
- Confirm your selection by clicking **Save**.
- Note the ID of this schedule. It's the last number of the URL (e.g.
"yourscheduler/3/"). You will need it in the next step.
3. Enter the schedule id in castellum
- Under **External schedule ID**, enter the scheduler ID.
- Confirm with **Save**.
- The scheduler can now be used in recruitment.
