Why aren't my Cal.com bookings showing up?
The Cal.com help pages give 3 common reasons. The first to rule out: If an event needs your approval, each new booking waits as pending and the person gets no confirmation email until you act on it.
What causes it?

How would I know the day it starts?
- Feder reads the bookings made in Cal.com each day and compares each day with your own history.
- If bookings go quiet or move outside your usual range, Feder tells you.
Some numbers are too quiet to judge daily, such as a form filled in a few times a week. Until there is enough of your own history to judge a change, Feder says it is still learning and scores nothing, rather than guessing.
See what Feder reads from Cal.com, which feeds Interest. Feder only reads. It never changes anything in Cal.com.
