# Events

Host in-person and virtual events for your association members with built-in meeting integration, timezone support, and optional recording.

## Creating an Event

<Steps>
  <Step title="Navigate to Events">
    Go to **Events → Create Event**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Event Details">
    * **Title** and **description**
    * **Date and time** — Select start/end with timezone support
    * **Location** — Physical address or "Online"
    * **Chapter** — Optionally scope to a specific chapter
    * **Visibility** — Public (visible to non-members) or Members Only
  </Step>

  <Step title="Online Meeting">
    For virtual or hybrid events, attach an online meeting link:

    * **Auto-generate** — Create a Google Meet, Zoom, or Teams meeting automatically (requires [integration](/integrations/meeting-providers))
    * **Custom link** — Paste any meeting URL manually
  </Step>

  <Step title="Recording">
    Toggle **Record Meeting** to have the platform's bot join and record the session. Recordings are used to generate [AI meeting minutes](/platform/meeting-minutes).

    <Info>
      Recording requires a connected meeting provider with bot access. See [Meeting Providers](/integrations/meeting-providers).
    </Info>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Publish">
    Click **Create Event** to publish. Members are notified based on your notification settings.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Timezone Support

Events display in the viewer's local timezone automatically. The original timezone is shown alongside for reference.

<Tip>
  When creating events for international audiences, mention the primary timezone in the description for clarity.
