Hi, I have been using RSVP blocks as a method to send Zoom meetings that result in an ICS file for email recipients to download the calendar invite directly to their calendar. However, I'm noticing there is no time zone associated with the RSVP block. So, if a meeting is technically set for 11:00AM on the link that was made on Zoom (which was copy and pasted into the RSVP block), the RSVP block allows you to put in the date and time, and no time zone. My concern is if I send this RSVP block out with no time zone specified, say someone who is in the EST time zone receives it as 11:00AM on their side, someone who might be in the Central time zone may also receive 11:00AM, but their 11:00AM is different than the EST time zone's 11:00AM. For EST, 11:00AM is actually 10:00AM Central. I can specify in text within the email the time zone, but it's very counter-productive especially if when the ics file is downloaded in the RSVP block, they'll have to manually change the meeting time on their end to match EST time zone. And even then, we need to hope that they will actually do that. Is there a solution to this?

Thanks William. Another question - I've read into the RSVP blocks, and it says "the information added to the brief description is visible on a personal calendar if your contact clicks the "add to calendar" link on the "Thank You" page and downloads the ICS file." But where would I even add the ICS file here? If I add a Zoom link, it just opens up to the meeting itself which isn't our goal. The instructions here make it seem like I should be able to edit the thank you page & add the ICS file somewhere so that the receiver can add it to their calendar, but I'm having difficulty doing that.

Hi there, looking for some help on this: I'd really like to be able to add a Zoom meeting invitation in a Constant Contact email. Not a link that just opens up to meeting, but one that will automatically add the Zoom invitation to their outlook calendar. Is this feature possible on Constant Contact or has anyone successfully attempted this? I'd appreciate any direction on this if anyone has some tips and tricks.
