Availability is open to approved participants while the event still accepts
meeting requests. Times follow the event time zone, which appears next to the
title.
1
Open Availability
On the event home, select the Availability row under your name. It reads All hours until you change a date, then shows how many dates you’ve set. Availability is also at the top of My schedule and in the account menu.
2
Choose a mode for each date
Every date with meeting hours is listed with those hours underneath. Choose one of three modes:
- All hours: available for all the meeting hours. This is the default.
- Custom: available only during the time ranges you add.
- Unavailable: no meeting requests for that date.
3
Add time ranges
Switching to Custom adds a first range that matches the meeting hours. Adjust the start and end in 24-hour time. Add time range adds another range that starts where the last one ends, and the trash icon removes a range.A range is saved only when the end is later than the start and it doesn’t overlap another range on the same date. Ranges may touch. Times outside the meeting hours show Times outside meeting hours won’t be used. They’re kept, but nobody can request those slots.

Save
Select Save. The panel closes and the summary on the event home updates. Cancel discards your changes. Save stays disabled while a range still has an error.
What changes for others
- When another participant requests a meeting with you, they can choose only slots that fall within both your availability and theirs, inside the meeting hours.
- A date set to Unavailable offers no slots at all. On a Custom date, only your ranges do.

Times outside meeting hours won't be used
Times outside meeting hours won't be used
Part of the range lies outside the hours shown under the date. You can still
save it, and only the part inside the meeting hours counts. Shorten the
range to clear the warning.

The row, the schedule link, and the menu entry appear only for approved
participants in events with meetings, and only while meeting requests are
open. Once requests close, your confirmed meetings remain under Meetings
and My schedule.
