Why do multiple deduplication keys map to the same bot scheduled for a calendar event

Last updated: January 24, 2025

calendar_event can only have 1 scheduled bot so if you attempt to Schedule Another Bot for the same Calendar Event (e.g. you receive an update event and want to update the config.join_at param), then the already scheduled bot will be updated with the new deduplication key and bot config

Deduplication Key Format

The recommended format for deduplication keys is:

{event.start_time}-{event.meeting_url}

By consistently using this format, deduplication will be handled automatically, and you don't need to take any additional action on your end.

Best Practices

  • Always use the recommended deduplication key format
