    How do we create events without having them published when created? The option to "Not Published" is only available after the item is created and published.

    Hi Nichole Plowman,

     

    I apologize for not seeing your message sooner!

     

    You can indicate whether events should be immediately published to the Public Portal upon creation within Portal Settings. To do so, you will want to navigate to the User Menu > Settings > Events & Public Portal > Portal Settings. Scroll down to the Portal Preferences section and click the Default Event Publish Setting dropdown. If you select No and then click Save Changes, all meetings created going forward should be unpublished by default.
