The Calendar event action in Journeys allows you to automatically schedule meetings or events with employees. This ensures that everyone is aligned, prepared, and informed—without needing to manually send invites.
This action automatically creates and sends a calendar invitation to specified attendees once the previous step in the Journey is completed. You can customize all standard event details, such as title, description, date, time, duration, and attendees.
