- If you don't have “View members” access, the group receives an invitation. For the event to display on a user’s calendar, each user has to accept the invite from the invitation email.
- If you invite large groups of guests to an event, in the event, you’ll see an invitation in progress message until each guest is invited.
- You can find RSVPs for groups within groups, but not for any additional nested groups. Learn how to add a group to another group .
