Agenda Details Overview

Prev Next

The Agenda page, or Agenda view, is where you can see and edit agenda details, including its sections, items, and settings. This article provides an overview of those agenda details and the editing tools available on the page, including how to create, delete, reorder, copy, and move sections and items. Many of these tools link to dedicated articles with step-by-step instructions.

Sections and items you create here, and the order you arrange them in, populate the Public Portal's “Meeting Overview” tab once the agenda is published. See the Public Portal Overview article for more information.

Important Note:

The editing tools available to you may vary depending on your organization's preferences and the roles and permissions assigned to your user account. See the Security Profiles and Custom Profiles Overview article for more information on how these permissions are assigned.
