Creating events and adding participants
Overview
Events help you bring your community together for important moments. Whether it's a casual meetup, an informative session, or a formal announcement, events will be your go-to.
User roles in events
An individual's role in an event determines their permissions and notifications.
Host- The creator of the event. The host is responsible for managing the event's details.
Invitees- Members who are invited to an event to participate. If the host allows it, invitees can RSVP to the event.
Assistants- Members designated to attend an event to observe, assist, and report on it. Similar to invitees, they receive notifications about the event and any changes made by the host (e.g., location or time changes). However, event assistants cannot RSVP.
Creating an Event
You can create an event in two different ways.
From the events page:
Click Events in the left-hand menu.
The Calendar view will open. Click on a specific date to create an event on that day.
Alternatively, click the + icon in the top-right corner of the page.

From the dropdown, select Event.
In the pop-up, fill in the following details:
Event name- A clear and concise title for your event.
Timings- The start and end dates and times.
Location- The physical or virtual location of the event. You can also paste a short URL from Google Maps here.
Invitees- Add members or spaces you wish to invite.
Click Add Assistant to add panelists to your event.

The members you add as assistants will receive email notifications and will be kept informed of any subsequent changes to the event.
Under Description field, enter a brief description of the event.
Click Add Attachments to upload files from your device. The maximum file size per attachment is 30 MB.
Click Create.
From My Feed:
From the My Feed page, click the events icon located on top of the post editor.
Select Events from the dropdown and follow the same steps as above to fill in the event details and create it.

Once the event is created, invites and notifications will be sent to the invitees, allowing them to RSVP directly from the email notification.
