BCC in meeting invite Outlook 16.65
- Nov 09, 2022
I am an independent advisor answering questions about Outlook.
As shown in the image below, you must click on the Optional button to Invite Optional Attendees (IOA). IOA is used as the Carbon Copied (CC), and their names are listed in the invite.
The Location field is the Resource field. You can no longer add people's names in this area.
Now for your BCC question. Once the meeting invite is created. As the meeting organizer, you can Forward the email message to others as follows:
- Navigate to the Sent Folder
- Open Meeting Invite Email Message
- Any names in the To Field is a required invitee to the meeting
or CC Field is an optional invitee. (Again, these names will appear in the calendar invite.) - Any names in the Email BCC will not appear on the invite, but the meeting details are provided in the body of the message.
If you find this information helpful, please mark it as the best response or like it, which assists others with the same question.

Teresa_Cyrus When I open the meeting invite in the Sent Items folder the bcc button is greyed out so I can't select it. Is there a setting to change this?

Once you open the email from the Sent folder, you must Forward the message then the BCC command is available.
