Creating an event in SharePoint is a straightforward process, typically done through the Events web part on your site page. This allows you to easily publish and display upcoming activities for your audience.
Steps to Add a New Event
To add a new event to your SharePoint site, follow these steps:
- Initiate Event Creation: On your SharePoint page that contains an Events web part, click the Add event button. This will open a new page or panel where you can input the event details.
- Name Your Event: At the top of the event creation page, provide a clear and descriptive name for your event. This will be the main title displayed.
- Set Date and Time: Locate the "When" section and carefully choose the specific start and end dates, along with the corresponding times, for your event.
- Define Location: In the "Where" section, enter the physical location, address, or venue where the event will take place.
- Include Online Meeting Link: If your event is conducted online, you can use the "Link" section to paste the relevant online meeting link (e.g., Microsoft Teams, Zoom, etc.).
Once these details are entered, you can publish the event, making it visible to your site's visitors through the Events web part.
For more details on managing events in SharePoint, you can refer to the Microsoft Support documentation on using the Events web part.
