Using Scheduling Poll to Schedule Meetings

Action

Scheduling Poll (formerly "FindTime") helps minimize the back-and-forth emails in scheduling by letting you send a poll to attendees inside and outside your organization, so they can vote on which meeting times work best for them.

Propose your selected times to all attendees and allow everyone to vote. Once you reach consensus, Scheduling Poll sends out the meeting invite on your behalf, eliminating the time consuming back-and-forth usually required to find the best meeting time.

Instructions

See Microsoft's documentation for more information on using Scheduling Poll.
