Setting Meeting Recurrence

You can define the recurrence of the meeting by choosing the appropriate value for “Repeat every” field. The Meeting Date that was chosen above will be the first date of the meeting, and the timing would remain the same for every recurrence. Options for “Repeat every” are:

  • “Never” – for one-time meetings that do not repeat.
  • “Day” – for meetings that repeat after a certain number of days
  • “Week” – for meetings that repeat after a certain number of weeks

Select interval” sets the time interval between 2 meeting recurrences. So if we choose “Repeat every“- “Week” and choose “Select interval” as 1, this meeting would be set to recur once a week starting from the day you have already set in “Meeting Date“.

Inviting Participants
