Autofill Availability
The Autofill Availability feature helps you quickly find available time slots for your events. WhenToMeet analyzes your connected calendars and suggests time slots when you have no conflicts.
How it works
When you have calendars connected, WhenToMeet can detect your free time and automatically populate available time slots. This works on both event creation/editing pages and event participation pages.
Using Autofill
There are three ways to trigger autofill:
1. Sparkles button in the calendar toolbar
When creating or editing an event, look for the ✦ (Sparkles) icon in the calendar toolbar. Hover over it to see a tooltip with a description and keyboard shortcut. Click it to auto-fill free time slots based on your calendar.
2. Keyboard shortcut
Press Cmd+Shift+A (Mac) or Ctrl+Shift+A (Windows/Linux) on any event page to trigger autofill.
3. "Suggest from Calendar" button
On event participation pages, click the "Suggest from Calendar" button to auto-fill your availability based on your calendar events.
Requirements
- You must have at least one calendar connected in your calendar settings
- The calendar overlay must be enabled (the "Show calendar overlay" checkbox in the calendar toolbar)
- Autofill analyzes the currently visible date range (week or month view)
How free slots are detected
- For sub-day durations (e.g., 1 hour): WhenToMeet generates candidate slots between 8 AM and 10 PM, then removes any that overlap with your calendar events (with a 15-minute buffer)
- For all-day durations: WhenToMeet checks each day for any calendar events and marks completely free days as available
- The results are merged with any existing selected slots
