The temp table represents a physician's schedule. I need to find available time slots for 30 and 45 minute appointments. Available time slots are identified by the number 1. If you order by the StartDateTime, then you can see consecutive available time slots, i.e. a number 1 in two consecutive rows. So, how do you get a datediff between the StartDateTime and EndDateTime between two consecutive rows for 30 minute appointment. Then, how to get datediff between three consecutive rows for 45 minute appointments?

create table #T
(
CwsCalID varchar(50),
StartDateTime datetime, 
EndDateTime datetime, 
TimeSlotAvailable int
)

insert into #T(CwsCalID,StartDateTime, EndDateTime, TimeSlotAvailable) values('PAPETTIN_20200413','04/13/2020 06:00:00','04/13/2020 06:15:00','0')
insert into #T(CwsCalID,StartDateTime, EndDateTime, TimeSlotAvailable) values('PAPETTIN_20200413','04/13/2020 06:15:00','04/13/2020 06:30:00','0')

Looks like a gaps and islands problem

with cte1 as (
select *,case when TimeSlotAvailable = LAG(TimeSlotAvailable) over(partition by CwsCalID order by StartDateTime) then 0 else 1 end as StartSlot
from #T
),
cte2 as (
select *,
       sum(StartSlot) over(partition by CwsCalID order by StartDateTime rows unbounded preceding) as grp
from cte1)
select CwsCalID,
       min(StartDateTime) as ApptStart,
       max(EndDateTime) as ApptEnd,
   datediff(minute,min(StartDateTime),max(EndDateTime)) as ApptLength,
   count(*) as NumberOfSlots
from cte2
where TimeSlotAvailable = 1
group by CwsCalID,grp
having count(*) > 1 -- Require at least 2 consecutive slots
order by ApptStart;

SELECT 
CwsCalID, StartDateTime, EndDateTime, TimeSlotAvailable,
[ConsecutiveAvailableTimeslots] = COUNT(NULLIF(TimeSlotAvailable,0)) OVER(PARTITION BY Grouper)
FROM (
SELECT *, 
Grouper = ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY TimeSlotAvailable, StartDateTime) - ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY StartDateTime)
FROM #T
) d
ORDER BY StartDateTime
