> MarkNoShow records that an attendee missed a Meeting, applies the no-show rule of its Offer, and offers a new time.

MarkNoShow records that an attendee missed a [Meeting](/business/nouns/meeting), applies the no-show rule of its [Offer](/business/nouns/offer), and offers a new time.

## Inputs
| Input | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `meeting` | [Meeting](/business/nouns/meeting) | Yes | The missed Meeting. |

## Outputs
| Output | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `meeting` | [Meeting](/business/nouns/meeting) | Yes | The Meeting, marked no-show. |

## Effects
| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Action class | None: it runs within its seat's Limits |
| Door | Two-way: it runs at once |
| Modes | `try` previews it and stores nothing; `send` returns a pending Action; `do` (default) waits for the result |
| Idempotent | With a key: a repeat with the same `Idempotency-Key` returns the first Action, and a repeat without one runs again |
| Undo | [Action.undo](/business/nouns/action/undo) reverses it |
| Emits | [`Meeting.markedNoShow`](/business/events/Meeting.markedNoShow) |
| Performed by | The [Sales Lead](/agents/sales/sales-lead) |

- A paid Meeting keeps or refunds its payment as its Offer’s no-show rule states.
- Sends the attendee the booking link to pick a new time.

## Refuses when
| Check | Error | Fix | Then call |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| The key is valid, but its scopes do not allow this operation. | [`forbidden`](/code/api/errors/forbidden) | Use a key whose scopes cover the operation, or ask an owner of the namespace to grant them. | None. |

## When it waits
| Gate | Default |
| --- | --- |
| Decision class | Low: two-way, nothing at stake |
| [Delay window](/systems/trust-and-governance/controls/one-way-windows) | None: it runs once review passes. |
| Limit | The call [Limit](/business/nouns/limit) of the [Permission](/business/nouns/permission) it runs under. |
| Over the Limit | It waits `pending` for an [Approval](/business/nouns/approval) from the [Founder](/agents/founding/founder). Approved, it runs; refused, it ends `refused` with [`limit-exceeded`](/code/api/errors/limit-exceeded); unanswered by its deadline, it ends `canceled`. |
