# Schedule a Descript Rooms Session

> Schedule a Descript Rooms session ahead of time and share an invite link with participants.

Set a Rooms session up in advance so participants get the join link early, and keep all your upcoming and past sessions in one place.

This feature is rolling out to all users slowly. If you don't see it just yet, check back again soon.

## Schedule a Rooms session

1. From the [drive view](/descript-tour/drive-view) sidebar, select **Rooms recordings** under the **Tools** section.

4. Select **Save** to confirm.
5. To invite guests, either copy the invite link and share it directly, or create a calendar event in Google Calendar or Outlook and add guests there.<br /><img src="https://mintcdn.com/descript-5bf56f3f/NQQ8Oln3iV-r_AmP/images/external/descript-46724727294477-e9d8288090.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=NQQ8Oln3iV-r_AmP&q=85&s=ff128115287eb0325299135a1e4c9b75" alt="Scheduled Rooms event details with invite link" width="1577" height="929" data-path="images/external/descript-46724727294477-e9d8288090.png" />

The scheduled session appears in the **Rooms recordings** tab under **Upcoming**.

<Note>
  **Other entry points**

  The scheduling window is also available from the **Record** button in the top-right of the [drive view](/descript-tour/drive-view), or [at the bottom of any open project](/record/editor-recorder). Select **Schedule for later** from the menu.
</Note>

## View, edit, or delete scheduled sessions

All scheduled Rooms you've created appear in the **Rooms recordings** tab in the drive sidebar, organized into two views:

* **Upcoming**: sessions scheduled for a future date and time
* **Past**: completed sessions whose scheduled time has elapsed

To edit or delete a scheduled session, select the actions menu next to the session.

## Tips for a smooth session

* **Invite guests through your calendar app.** The Rooms scheduler generates an invite link you can share directly, or you can add it to a Google Calendar or Outlook event to invite guests. If your calendar app auto-adds a Zoom, Teams, or Google Meet link, remove it so participants don't join the wrong call.
* **Start the Room before guests arrive.** Someone with permission to start the session must enter the Room for guests to join. Plan to open your Room a few minutes before the scheduled time.
* **Share the Guest Recording Checklist.** Send guests the [Guest Recording Checklist for Descript Rooms](/record/recording-checklist) ahead of the session so they can prepare their setup in advance.

## Known limitations

* **The Rooms tab shows only sessions you created.** Sessions scheduled by other drive members won't appear there.
* **Past only lists scheduled sessions.** Recordings started from the regular **New recording** flow don't appear in **Past**. Those recordings are saved directly to their project.
* **Role-specific links aren’t currently supported.** Scheduling generates a generic guest invite link. To assign specific roles like Co-host, Producer, or Viewer, see [Roles in Descript Rooms](https://help.descript.com/hc/en-us/articles/38049993092749).
* **Scheduled Rooms events don't sync with calendar apps.** If you edit or cancel a session in Descript, update the calendar event in Google Calendar or Outlook separately.
