We are running Server.app 5.2 on macOS 10.11.5. In the Mac based Calendar client there is a ‘Check Availability’ button that can be used to verify the schedule of an invitee for their free time. Is there any way to ‘Check availability’ of an invitee using the iOS Calendar app? Is is possible to do so with Server.app’s web client, and if not, are there any other web based calendar clients that are known to provide this functionality? Thanks in advance Ian

Not that I'm aware of - although it will tell you about specific conflicts with the proposed event, and offer to find the next free time.

Yes, Server's web calendar (https://example.com/webcal <https://example.com/webcal>) can show availability information. Create an event, then click the 'Invitees' tab. I imagine this might not work from an iOS device, but might be usable on iPad if you 'request desktop site'. My current network configuration doesn't allow me to easily test this... -dre
