Manage your availability.
To manage your availability on the web platform, follow these steps:
- Go to the Edit Profile section by clicking the Profile button at the top right of the page.
- Select Manage My Availability to view the default meeting days and time ranges set by the event organizer.
- Customize your availability by adjusting the daily time ranges or setting different times for each event day.
- Save your changes to ensure your customized availability is reflected in meeting requests.
PRO TIP:
You can make a whole day unavailable by unchecking the box next to the day’s name.
