Meeting invites moved online long before meetings did. Given the popularity of digital planners, online calendars, and web-based events, it only stands to reason that invitations are managed accordingly.
Most online events provide a simple link that you can share with potential participants. The link adds the event to an online calendar. With Outlook, you can create something similar but it isn’t tied to an online event.
In Outlook, you can send a calendar invitation to an event. This event can be online or offline. It is entirely up to you and Outlook’s feature is less about the type of event and more about the kind of invitation you want to send.
An Outlook meeting invitation can be sent to multiple people, the recipients can accept or decline it, and you can see who is attending, and who isn’t.
When an invite is accepted by a recipient, the event/meeting is added to their calendar automatically.
