I. Introduction to Meeting Reminders

Meeting reminders provide notifications, over email and in the app, of meetings a person is invited to before each meeting's date. These notifications can be enabled in each user's settings. This is also where the frequency of these notifications can be customized.

Members and observers can enable meeting reminders and control the frequency of these for their own accounts. Admins can take these actions for their own accounts, and for the accounts of other users.

Meeting reminders cannot be enabled or disabled for only some meetings. They are either sent for all meetings or none, depending on the option selected in user settings.

Meeting reminders can use the following frequencies:

  • 1 day before meeting

  • 2 days before meeting

  • 3 days before meeting

  • 4 days before meeting

  • 5 days before meeting

When both immediate email notifications and meeting reminders are enabled, an email is sent to the login email address, and to any additional notification addresses listed in user settings on the timeline selected from the above.

This message contains the body text "Just a friendly reminder about your upcoming meeting," the meeting title and date, and a link to the meeting page.
