โ„น๏ธInfo
Remember that the way Cowlendar works is that by [default](../how-to.../how-to-use-the-integration-feature/) it converts the add to cart button into a book now button. When this book now button is clicked it opens up the calendar widget

Make sure you save

Look at the left panel in your shopify admin and click Apps

Click on Cowlendar

Click on My Services

Click on New Service

Select the product you just created

Configure the service to your liking

โ„น๏ธInfo
The availability tab is where most of the magic of creating your schedule happens. This includes your weekday availiability, meeting duration, break times and much more

Go through each tab and when done make sure to click update

Go back to My Services

Click View on the newly created service

Make sure you can see a Book Now button and that when clicked, opens the calendar to your service

โš ๏ธWarning
Don't panic if you don't see the book now button! Just come by chat and we will resolve this for you quickly.
