Tentative Accept - Separate Field in Meeting Query
luhogner we are getting slightly confused then because it seems in our data that accept and tentative are in the accept field and that no response is only no response field. We tested this by applying a tentative exclusion and seeing how it modified the data for attendees, total accept, and total no response.
It seems to state this in the the WpA documentation as well:
- TotalAccept. The number of invitees who accepted the meeting
- TotalNoResponse. The number of invitees who did not respond
- TotalDecline. The number of invitees who declined the meeting
Only documentation of tentative in all of the documentation is this and it refers to it as "accepted as tentative":
Tentative
In some countries, it is a cultural practice not to "decline" a meeting; rather, a "Tentative" response means "I won’t be attending but I still want to keep this meeting on my calendar." As an analyst, you can exclude invitees who tentatively accepted a meeting invitation.
Using the "accepted as tentative" exclusion would mean that a meeting invitee who tentatively accepted is not counted as an attendee to that particular meeting.
