We do all the hard work in the background and send out the updated Calendar
Invite information to your customers who have said Yes or Maybe.

Using the original calendar invitation in your calendar client, you can now
update any of the information, and your customers will receive the updated data
automatically in their Calendar Clients.
We support Subject, Date, Time, Google Meeting, Zoom Meeting, and
Description fields for UPDATE.
When you save the changed information in the calendar client, we send out the
updated calendar invite to any attendees in the Y or M category.
We mimic how it works with the calendar client, bypassing the need to log in. We
keep the service Headless.
In this example, we will show you how Calendar UPDATE makes the process
transparent to your end users who have said Yes or Maybe to the event.
So we start the story with a Calendar Snack Lander that was shared already. Two
people put emails into the modal, got the Calendar Invites, and responded back.

Greg shares the URL to the Calendar Invite Landing page, and a couple of people
get calendar invites and respond to the event in their calendar clients.
<'(*F-$(+)-.*:-+)%+4*!-4(*A1.*4(;;%+4*;'(*,-$(+)-.*%+@%;(
In this example, the organizer Greg sees in this report that two people have opted
into the shared Calendar Landing Page and have been sent a calendar invitation
by confirming the detailed reporting page.
In the detailed dashboard, Greg sees the names of the people who have said they
are coming to the event and requests the detailed report to his organizer’s email
address.
J&*;'(*(@(+;*1.4-+%K(.*3.(4*'-&*;'(*1D;%1+*1A*4(;;%+4*;'(*.(D1.;*%+*-*0FLH*&(+;*;1*'%2*#M*,$%,/%+4*;'(*#";;1+
Greg, the organizer, realizes the event is now changed, and he must notify his
current customers that the information has changed.
How does he do this if they have responded to the event?
Easy, he goes back to the original Calendar Event on his calendar, edits, and
saves the calendar invite, which starts the UPDATE workflow in the background.
3.(4*,'-+4(&*-+)*C!>J<GL*'%&*,-$(+)-.&+-,/0*5(*,'-+4(&*;'(*;%2(*-+)*$1,-;%1+0
In this workflow, the customers receive updates in their email boxes with the
new information in the calendar invitation, which asks them to respond since it
involves time and location changes.
N1"*,-+*&((*'(.(*;'-;*B'(+*;'(*,-$(+)-.*%+@%;(*%&*C!>J<G>*;'(*F-$(+)-.&+-,/*>-&'#1-.)
In his calendar client, Greg has changed the time to 5:15 and the location to the
Colorado School of Mines. The Calendar Landing page is updated each time
there is a change pushed.
N1"*,-+*&((*;'-;*B(*-";12-;%,-$$M*"D)-;(*-$$*;'(*F-$(+)-.*:-+)%+4*D-4(&*B%;'*;'(*C!>J<G>*%+A1.2-;%1+
So if someone were to get the new calendar landing page, they would get the
correct calendar invitation.
But wait!
What happens to those who already responded to the original calendar invite for
3:30 PM at the Golden Hotel for Buffalo Bill? What happens to them?
See below what it looks like to your customers.
In this case, Mandy@techvader.com gets the updated calendar invite, asking her
what her status is now, knowing the time and location have changed. (Orange A
in UPPER Right is for Amanda).
O-+)MP&*G2-%$*Q+#1R*B%;'*+(B*F-$(+)-.*Q+@%;(*CD)-;(
Mandy sees a big time difference. She indicates Maybe instead of Yes for the
3:30 request.
Zack below is in a different place. He was a MAYBE before, but now sees this as
an advantage and say YES to the Invite.

So what’s going on in the back reporting engine? Can Calendarsnack
dynamically deal with all the changes? Absolutely!
What? Does that sound crazy?
Well, not really. We follow the calendar specification for sending, updating, and
communicating with the calendar clients. CHANGES and UPDATES happen
automatically across any of your active events.
So let’s see what’s going on with the detailed reporting below with Updates.
J&*M1"*,-+*&((*'(.(*%+*;'(*"D)-;()*)(;-%$()*.(D1.;*O-+)M*%&*OJNTG*-+)*S-,/*%&*NGL0
All updating is working as indicated by the detailed reporting.
<'%&*%&*;'(*+1;%A%,-;%1+*(2-%$*&(+;*;1*;'(*1.4-+%K(.*-&*-*0FLH
It includes details like below.
>(;-%$&*1A*;'(*0FLH*&(+;*1A*;'(*G@(+;*)-;-*#-,/*;1*;'(*1.4-+%K(.
So in wrapping up this TL: DR.
How else can I use the UPDATE to help promote my event?
We see it as a way to send out UPDATES in the description area, Dates, Time,
Location, or the Google or Zoom Webinar Info if there is a change.
Also, another excellent use case is sending out the UPDATE with the Final
AGENDA, or QR code for Coupons for attending, or other trade tricks to ensure
people show up.
