Email Event Invitations - Auto-Updates

Creating email event invitations is quick and easy!

Customize the event information by selecting the desired sections already uploaded in the event editor.

Use the Auto-Update option when you are scheduling an email for future delivery. The event content will be current as of the date/time email is sent.

Updates to event information in the event editor are synced. For example, the current list of attendees, changes to the agenda, description, or date/time changes (TBD changed to actual date) are inserted as of the date/time the email is sent. Edits are not allowed.

TIP: If entering text at the top of the email, do so prior to inserting the event.

A locked table is inserted with the event title, ID, and sections selected.

The information in the table is not editable because the sections populate with the most current information found in the event editor at the time the email is sent.

TIP: If no data is entered in a section, no title or content is inserted for that section.

TIP: The event insert includes the checked sections with content in them at the time of sending the email
For example, on the day the email was created and scheduled for delivery two weeks later, the inserted event did not have an Agenda entered in the event editor. One week later, an Agenda was added in the event editor. When the email sends on the assigned schedule, the Agenda is automatically included in the sent email.
