# Supported Event Types

Motion supports a variety of event types, all of which are treated as fixed calendar commitments. These events sync bi-directionally with connected external calendars.

<table><thead><tr><th width="171.60546875">Event Type</th><th>Details</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Meetings</strong></td><td>Standard calendar events created in Motion or synced from external calendars. Can include attendees, links, and locations.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Bookings</strong></td><td>Events created automatically when someone schedules time using your Motion booking link. Includes host/invitee details, reminders, and confirmations.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Recurring events</strong></td><td>Events that repeat daily, weekly, monthly, or on custom cadences. Recurrence rules are preserved from the source calendar.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Personal events</strong></td><td>Non-work events added directly to Motion or imported from external calendars (e.g., appointments, classes).</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Team events</strong></td><td>Shared events within a workspace that appear on relevant calendars.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>All-day events</strong></td><td>Span an entire day or multiple days. Motion treats these as <em>Busy</em> for the full duration, meaning <strong>tasks will not be auto-scheduled during that day</strong> unless the event is marked as <em>Free</em>.</td></tr></tbody></table>

All-day: Special type of event that affects the entire day \[for more info on all-day events click [here](https://help.usemotion.com/tasks-events-and-auto-scheduling-101/tasks-not-scheduling-where-you-expect-heres-whats-actually-happening)].

**Behavior**

* All event types are fixed in time; Motion does not auto-reschedule them.
* Events always override tasks when conflicts occur.
* Changes made in Motion or an external calendar reflect in both systems.
* Motion does support creating **all-day events** directly — these can be created in your Motion calendar and will sync in.

**Limitations**

* Complex recurrence rules may depend on the external calendar (e.g., exceptions to a recurring meeting).
