Calendar

With the calendar, we aim to provide a more intuitive and flexible method to schedule actions throughout the day.

This creates a web calendar where it is much easier to schedule events based on a date and time.

Make sure the project's web server is enabled under the Project Settings Web Server tab and configured to the appropriate network interface before moving on to the next step.

As with other web objects, you can find the url to access the web calendar under the Web Server tab.

Open the web browser and enter the URL. This is the Week view of the calendar.

You can switch between the different views at the top. For example below is the month view.

Double click on an empty area of the calendar to bring up a pop up window to create an event.

There is the option to give the event a name, set the start and end time, choose if this event is a repeated event, and set what will happen on the start / on end of the event.

By default, all actions that you can trigger in Grid Studio can be triggered by the calendar. However, sometimes this might be a bit too much. A filter list can be created so that only the actions in the filter list can be accessed from the web view.

It is also possible to limit the access of the web calendar to specific users. To do this, under the Web Server tab, there is the Authentication section to add users that are allowed to access this calendar. Create a User object to define the login name, and credentials and add them to the list.

If you are interested in creating a widget for the calendar, you would need to make use of the Calendar data source. For more details, please refer to here.
