Overview
The Timeline is the participant-facing view of all meeting slots configured by the organiser. It shows what is happening, when, and where, and lets the user request meetings against their own availability.
Layout
-
Horizontal axis — time, divided into the slot length defined by the organiser (for example 20 or 30 minutes).
-
Vertical axis — meeting days. Each event day is shown as its own row group.
-
Confirmed meetings appear as filled blocks with the other participant's name and the table assignment.
-
Pending requests appear as lighter blocks with a "Pending" label.
-
Slots the user has marked as unavailable appear greyed out.
-
Free slots are selectable.
Interactions
-
Selecting a free slot opens the slot context menu, which offers "Find a match for this slot" and "Mark as unavailable".
-
Selecting a confirmed or pending meeting block opens the meeting details page.
-
Selecting an unavailable slot offers a "Make available" action.
Filters
Above the timeline the user can filter by:
-
Day
-
Meeting status (Confirmed, Pending, Free, Unavailable)
-
Location, if multiple locations are configured
Display rules
-
The Timeline is read-only outside the configured Meeting Program availability window — past slots remain visible but are no longer editable.
-
The current time is marked with a vertical indicator on the day in progress.
-
If the event has only one day, the day grouping is collapsed and the timeline shows a single row of slots.
