You can view scheduled meetings with a specific participant on their profile page. Additionally, an overview of all your meetings is available in the "My Schedule" section.

Note: The times displayed on the platform depend on the event format. For fully in-person events, all times will be shown in the local timezone of the event. For hybrid or virtual events, times will be shown in your own local timezone. This setting cannot be changed.

Meeting Statuses Explained

Understanding the different statuses of a meeting can help you manage your schedules more efficiently:

SCHEDULED: The meeting has been confirmed by at least two participants (the organizer and one invitee).
PENDING: Someone has requested a meeting with you, and you need to accept, decline, or reschedule it.
AWAITING RESPONSE: You have requested a meeting, and the recipient has yet to respond.
DECLINED: The meeting has been declined by one or more participants.

Note: You do not need to be connected with someone to request a meeting with them. A connection will automatically form once the meeting request is accepted.

Adding More Participants to the Meeting

If multi-user meetings are enabled, you can add more participants to your scheduled meeting. This can be done either in the "My Schedule" section or directly from the profile of the event participant by clicking the "+ Add Attendee" under the invitees.

Note: On the mobile app, only 1:1 meetings can be scheduled. However, you can still accept or decline multi-user meeting requests within the mobile app.
