Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When using the Meeting Proposal feature in the calendar app, it is currently not possible to choose which calendar of the organizer the final event will be saved to.
At the moment, the event appears to be automatically created in the default (or first listed) calendar from the “+ Event” dropdown. This behavior is not transparent and cannot be changed during the proposal process.
This is frustrating when managing multiple calendars with different access permissions (e.g., personal work, team calendars, management calendars), as it forces additional manual steps after the proposal is completed.
Describe the solution you'd like
Add an option within the Meeting Proposal Editor to select the target calendar in which the event will be created.
This could be implemented as:
- A dropdown field (similar to the standard event creation dialog), or
- A preselection based on the calendar chosen when initiating the proposal, with the ability to override it
This would allow users to:
- Organize events correctly from the start
- Avoid unnecessary updates after creating the proposal
- Prevent confusion for participants caused by later changes
Describe alternatives you've considered
Currently, the only workaround is:
- Create a meeting proposal
- Complete the event setup after everyone has voted for their preferred time slot
- After the event is created, manually move it to the desired calendar
However, this approach triggers updates/notifications to participants and increases the risk of mistakes when an event shows up in a calendar it shouldn't be in.
Additional context
The current behavior can also be observed in the feature screenshots shared during the release of the Meeting Proposal feature, where no calendar selection is visible in the Proposal editor. #7072
