Event Management allows workplace administrators, site administrators, and creators to create and manage events in a calendar feed to organize activities, meetings, or special occasions within your organization. You can invite other users in your digital workplace to an event, allowing them to RSVP and view it on their Personal Calendars. This functionality helps you track attendance and plan your event effectively.

RSVP: Depending on the event's RSVP option, you can RSVP to indicate your attendance. See RSVP to an event.
