Invite people and manage attendees

You can invite other people to any event you create in Calendar. Guests receive the invitation immediately, and you can see who has accepted, declined, or not replied yet.

Add guests when creating an event

1. Open Calendar and click any day to open the New Event dialog.
2. In the Add guests field, type a name or email address. Calendar suggests people from your contacts as you type.
3. Select a suggestion, or finish typing a full email address and click the + button.
4. Repeat to add more guests.
5. Fill in the rest of the event details and click Save.

Each guest appears below the field with a Pending badge. Once they respond, the badge updates to Accepted, Maybe, or Declined.

Add guests to an existing event

1. Open the event by clicking it in the calendar view.
2. Click the pencil icon in the dialog footer to open the Edit Event dialog.
3. Add guests the same way as above, then click Save.

Remove a guest

In the Edit Event dialog, hover over the person you want to remove. An × button appears to the right of their name. Click it, then click Save.

See the full guest list

Open the event. If the event has guests, the detail dialog shows the full list with each person's current response status. Use the Copy emails button at the top of the list to copy all addresses to your clipboard at once.

Invite people outside Eigen

You can add any email address, not only people with an Eigen account. Guests who are not on your Eigen server receive an invitation email they can respond to from their own calendar app. See How invitations work with people outside Eigen for more detail.
