Dear Julio,
Unfortunately, there is no such funсtionality implemented in the system. You can try to create a business process that will be triggered when a new participant is added to ActivityParticipant object and then send an email notification using Send email process element.

Thanks Lily, that's what we did, but I want to know it we can send a calendar invitation instead of an email,

Dear Julio,
I have registered your suggestion for our R&D team. For now you can only send email notifications or create reminders within bpm'online. Both these features can be realised within a business process.

As for now, there are no updates on this task. I will add your comment to it to increase its priority.

Hi Julio
You can create a calendar invite link and add it to the email body if your users use Google Calendar.
Please check out this tool: https://jennamolby.com/tools/google-calendar-link-generator/
If you need to support multiple calendar providers, you have to generate an ICS file and attach it to the email.
Since Creatio doesn't support email attachment by default, I suggest that you develop a web service to generate an ICS file and send the link in the email like this tool: https://jennamolby.com/tools/ics-link-generator/.
Thank you

Susan Samara,
Creatio introduced this feature in the latest release (7.18.5).
There is a new button in the activity participants' detail that sends a calendar invite for the participant.
Mohamed Ouederni,
I am looking for this feature in my 8.0.8 environment, but can't find it under the activity participants' detail. Is this feature still available?
