How does Viva Insights handle my 'OOF' and 'Free' calendar items?
If I schedule an event but mark us as “free” or “out of office”, will this be counted into meeting counts and meeting hours?
By default, any calendar event that has not been declined will count towards meeting metrics, subject to analyst's selected meeting exclusion rules. This behavior can be modified by creating and using an "attendee exclusion rule". Custom attendee exclusion rules can optionally exclude from meeting metrics instances where the person did not respond to the meeting invitation or accepted the invitation as tentative. For more information about attendee exclusion rules, please see the documentation site: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/viva/insights/tutorials/attendee-exclusion-rules
