# How does "No preference" work when selected as a teammate

## How does no preference teammate work?

When a customer selects "No preference" it causes the app to show the availability of all teammates in a single calendar view and depending on the date/time chosen the app will pick a teammate.

If two teammates are available for the same date/time the app will randomly pick one.

## Example of no preference teammate selected 

This example will show two teammates with different availabilities that do not overlap and how a calendar would show if no preference is selected.

#### Jane's Availability: Mon -> Fri (All day) + Saturday (Morning)

#### John's Availability: Sat (Afternoon) -> Sun (Afternoon)

#### Calendar Availability with "No Preference" selected

#### Notice the following:

Monday -> Sunday shows up on the calendar which means both Jane and John's availability are showing<br>

On Saturday you can see Jane's morning schedule from 9am - 12pm  (Red arrow) AND you can see Johns afternoon schedule from 4pm - 6pm (Blue arrow)

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://penida.gitbook.io/cowlendar-help/how-to.../how-does-no-preference-work-when-selected-as-a-teammate.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
