Room Events (Conversation Events)

Overview​

Room Events show all calendar events linked to a specific conversation. When you open a contact's profile or conversation, you can see upcoming (and optionally past) events associated with that room. You can also create new events directly from the conversation context, so the event is automatically linked.

How to Access​

  • Open any conversation in the Inbox or from the Funnel Board.
  • The Room Events panel appears within the contact profile sidebar under the events section.
  • Available to all roles.

Interface Overview​

The Room Events panel shows:

  1. Header controls:
    • A Past Events toggle to include or exclude events that have already occurred.
    • An Add New link to create a new event linked to this conversation.
  2. Event cards: A vertical list of event cards, each showing:
    • Event title (with description tooltip)
    • Date and time (for timed events: day, start time - end time; for all-day events: date range)
    • Owner/creator avatar
    • Location icon (if a location is set)
    • Edit button (pencil icon) to open the event editor

FAQ​

Q: Can I see events from all team members for this conversation? A: The room events panel shows all events linked to the conversation's room, regardless of which team member created them.

Q: What happens if I delete an event from this panel? A: The event is deleted from both Aurora and the external calendar. It disappears from the room events list and the main calendar view.

Q: Can I create an event without linking it to a conversation? A: Yes, use the main Calendar page to create standalone events. The Room Events panel always links events to the current conversation.
