2. What do the invitation statuses mean?
The invitation status tells you how someone responded to the calendar invite.
| Status name | Short description | Detailed explanation & examples |
|---|---|---|
| Declined (10) | Invitation was declined | The participant actively declined the meeting. A colleague clicks “Decline” in Outlook because they have a scheduling conflict. |
| Accepted (20) | Invitation was accepted | The participant confirmed the meeting. Someone clicks “Accept” and plans to attend. Note: that is still no guarantee they show up. |
| Tentative accepted (30) | Invitation marked as “Maybe” | The participant is not sure yet and accepted with a maybe (“Tentative”), so whether they join depends on how their day turns out. |
| No response (40) | No reaction to the invite | The participant has not reacted at all, the invite is still sitting unanswered in their calendar. |
| Organizer (50) | Person is the organizer | This person created the meeting. |
| Unknown (100) | Status not available | Sally cannot read the invitation status. Example: In some systems, only the organizer can see responses. Other participants will see “Unknown” instead. |
