## Step 2: Create and manage events

Locate an issue within one of your Jira projects, open the details view for that issue on the right side of the screen, and find **Issue Events**.

Here, you can create new events, view existing ones, or edit and delete them as needed. Set titles, choose calendars, pick dates and times, add attendees, customize the description, and more.
