Your first meeting takes about two minutes and needs no account. You pick a mode, choose dates and times, add your name, and get a link. The scheduling overview explains the two modes; this page walks through the clicks.
Before you start
- Decide: one guest picks a slot (booking) or a group votes (poll).
- Have your time zone and a few realistic times ready.
- Keep a private window open to check the guest view.
How to complete this task
- Choose booking for one confirmed slot or poll for group consensus.
- Add the organizer, duration, location, dates, and realistic times.
- Create the page and copy its private organizer link.
- Open the public link in a signed-out browser before inviting anyone.
Finish by opening the public link in a signed-out browser: a saved setting is not proof that the guest path works.
Troubleshooting
The problems people report most often with this task, and the cause behind each one.
The public link shows something different from what I created.
You are almost certainly looking at the organizer view. Open the link in a private window where you are not signed in — that is the only view an invitee ever sees.
I lost the organizer link for a meeting I made.
Sign in with the Google account used in that browser session and open the dashboard. Meetings created in the current browser can be claimed by the first account that signs in, which is why claiming them early matters.
Nobody has responded to the link I shared.
Send the link with one sentence of context and a decision date. A bare URL reads as automated and gets deferred; naming the meeting's purpose and deadline is the single biggest response-rate change.
