Hoe krijg ik het formulier zichtbaar bij iemand waarmee ik de agenda deel?

Hi Peter Kooistra,
You can publish the form to the "Organizational Forms Library" if you want to make the form available to everyone in your organization. But it requires an Exchange account and The administrator must give you permission to publish to the Organizational Forms Library. I have not done this, maybe you can check the details via this page: Where you can publish forms.

Is there a way to automate adding a predefined agenda table to the text area of all meeting invites that are started using Power Automate?

I would like the addition of this agenda table to be added automatically every time a meeting invitation is started for my computer and everyone else in my department without having to select the template from the Quick Steps or template area.

Thanks.

Hey there - I got the template to work okay - I've saved it inside a new folder called template, inside the inbox of a shared folder, that way everyone in the team can access - it was working fine, but today it's now saving the appointments into the template folder, rather than putting them on to the calendar that I want them to go into - any ideas?

Can't modify the date and time, in the new meeting from the form / template
This comment was minimized by the moderator on the site
OK, I need groups of quick steps.
Say,
Quick step group:lectures(construction technology, engineering mechanics, machining operations, land surveying, etc.)
Quick step group 2:Church(cell meetings, Sunday services, village tours, etc.)
Quick step group 3:book making (team analysis, team selection, staking, etc.


How is it done?

How do you set duration? I have appointments that I need to create that are 45 minutes and 2 hours. Is there a way to default to those durations?
