Create Event

Only team leaders, admins, and the organization owner can create a new event.

Create a new event when you want to create a new type of event that may or may not recur. An event will allow you to define a set of positions associated with the event for scheduling volunteers as well as creating new series within the event. To create a new event, you will need to provide three details defining the event.

Property	Description
Name	Name of the event.
Description	Optional description of the event.
Recurs	How often the series recurs. Setting a recurring option will assist in creating the next set of events in the series by automatically creating the dates based on the recurring settings and how many occurrences to create. The recurring option will default to the value set for the event, but can always be overridden.Setting recurring to Never will still allow you to create a series in the event by selecting specific dates of the event. See events overview for more details on how recurring events work.
