    • Members of a project can see this - limit visibility of the event to members of a particular project. When a project is set, you can use the project filter in the calendar to view events based on their associated project.
    • This is just for me (hidden from other people) - create a private event that shows the period as blocked out for you but with the event details hidden to other users.
  • People - select attendees for the event and choose whether to notify them or send reminders.
    • You can also allow attendees to edit the event by scrolling to the bottom of the People tab.
  • Reminders - add reminders to send to people via email or SMS.

Once you have the relevant event options set, click Add Event to save it to the calendar.

Managing existing events


You can also manage existing events by hovering over the relevant event. The pop-up will display the event's details as well as options to edit, copy, or delete the event.

Alternatively, click the event name to open the Edit Event modal.
