Adjust the example date range, duration, and conflicts, then create a poll for your own group.
Interactive example with three fictional participants. Cross out their busy dates to see the best consecutive-day windows. These are sample answers; your real poll starts with no responses.
Each window must include only allowed days. Choose a range of up to 90 days. Unmarked example dates count as available.
Ranked by people available for the entire window, then earliest start date. Overlapping windows are included.
Continue with this date range and duration, then share your new poll to collect real answers. Example conflicts stay in this page and are never saved or shared.
Choose a date range and ask each person to mark unavailable days. Unmarked days are treated as available, so ask everyone to check the full range.
Set the number of days your trip or retreat needs. Compare windows against the conflicts your group has submitted.
Review the responses before confirming dates. Share the confirmed event details with the group.
