# Availability

> Set the dates and time ranges when other participants can request meetings with you. By default you're available for all of the event's meeting hours.

**Availability** tells other participants when they can request a meeting with you. By default you're available for every meeting hour the host has set, so you only need this panel to block a date or limit it to specific times. It's part of events with meetings (Meet & AI).

<Note>
  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.
</Note>

<Steps>
  <Step title="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.
  </Step>

  <Step title="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.
  </Step>

  <Step title="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.
  </Step>

  <Step title="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.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## 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.

## Troubleshooting

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="No dates to set">
    This event has no dates you can set availability for. Contact the host.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="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.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Meeting hours have changed">
    The host changed the meeting hours while you had the panel open. Refresh the
    page and set each date again.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="The Availability link is missing">
    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**.
