Create Events for Calendar
Asked by Jochen Hopf:

*This question is in reference to Atlassian Documentation: [Embed Calendars on Confluence Pages](https://confluence.atlassian.com/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=654213492)*

Hi,

is it possible to create events for the calendar which are available when adding a new calendar? It would be nice to have the custom events like the default event in every calendar. At the moment I have to add the same custom events to every new calendar.

Thank you and kind regards,

Jochen

Team calendar refresh
Asked by intopia:

I have created a team calendar in confluence that is associated with a JIRA project.

I added a JIRA issue event type filter to the calendar. If I refresh this event type, the calendar is updated.

However what I would like is:

* the calendar is automatically updated if a new issue is created or the due date has been changed
* my google calendar, which has got a subscription on this team calendar, is updated (now I have to remove and add the supscription every time. It seems that a simple refresh is not possible here)

Can this be done, or do I need to refresh and remove/add the subscription every time?

Kind regards,  
Christophe

Team Calendar Reminders Showing Events One Day Early
Asked by Erin Osterhaus:

Hello,

One of our teams is getting reminders for events that show the event on the incorrect day. For example, in a reminder for the below event, the email states it is on Feb 23^rd^ but it is actually scheduled for the 24^th^.

<br />

However, when I look at the calendar itself, the event does appear to be scheduled for the 24th.

Any idea why this may be happening?

How can I get JIRA Issue Dates to sync to Outlook Calendar?
Asked by Erica Larson:

I am trying to sync a Confluence Team Calendar to Outlook. The calendar is primarily made up of JIRA Issue Dates and not just events. When I follow the steps to sync (<https://confluence.atlassian.com/teamcal/subscribe-to-team-calendars-from-microsoft-outlook-251005307.html>), the sync works but it only pulls through events to my Outlook calendar. The JIRA Issue Dates are not being displayed.

Turn off notice about calendars needing a related space
Asked by Richard Marlow:

You keep adding "functionality" to Jira/Confluence that was not needed in the past and is not needed now. Please stop adding bloat to what was once a good product.

When I view the calendars I now see a message:

2 of these calendars need a related space.  
Calendars with a related space are easier to find and use.[Find out why, and set related spaces.](https://clareity.jira.com/wiki/calendar/mycalendar.action)

We have no need for this functionality. We have a couple of calendars that are related to multiple spaces, probably somewhere around 80 spaces. Why would I want to tie it to one space?

How do I disable this useless notification that appears every time we view the calendar?

Tempo forward mail vacation approved
Asked by Matthias Herreiner:

Hello,

is it possible to forward an email when a supervisior approved a vacation in the tempo timesheet? We need to inform our HR-department about that. Actually only the user who asks for vacation is informed via mail.

Furthermore are there any events such as vacation approved which I can catch via the script runner plugin?

kind regards

Matthias


Answers:
author: Sigr?n Arna Sigur?ard?ttir
body: Hi Matthias,

Unfortunately it is not possible to forward an email when a supervisor has approved a vacation.

Regarding the script runner plugin, there's an event sent to the activity stream if a timesheet/plans (vacation) has been approved so maybe that's something you can work with.

comments: author: Matthias Herreiner

thanks for your quick answer. Do you have any code-snippet or further hint how to get in the acivity stream with the script runner. We have written some scripts and we listen to some standard events which provides JIRA but we don't have a concret idea how to catch the event via the acivity stream.

author: Alexander Eck
body: Matthias,

maybe it is worth a try to set the HR manager as a supervisor for each user and see if he gets a copy of the approved timesheet. See more here:

Otherwise I will ask you to submit a request on tempo.io for a better followup of that issue.

Confluence Team Calendars Timezone
Asked by Duncan Kinnear:

We are evaluating Team Calendars for our licensed copy of Confluence Server.

We've defined a few Calendars on various spaces. When these display in the Timeline, the alignment of the 'All Day' events relative to the vertical day lines doesn't seem right.

For instance, the following screenshot was taken today (12th) at 16:22. The 'All Day' events seem to go from 4pm one day to 4pm the next day:

image2015-11-12 16:39:38.png

In fact, if I zoom right in on the timeline, the All Day events go from 16:00 to 16:00.

Do we have something set incorrectly? The System Timezone for our Confluence server that shows in the Configuration is "Pacific/Auckland" and the Calendars that we've created all have the same Timezone.

Anybody have any ideas?

Exporting custom events and ical
Asked by Byron Peters:

How do you export custom events to ical?


Answers:
author: Byron Peters
body: Hi!

Thanks for the quick response.

Did that -- doesn't work. Exported to Thunderbird/Lightening and Outlook and the event type did not show up. It seems like the custom event type does not get exported into the ical file. Since it is just a text file, the observation is easy to verify. I could just repurpose a different field, but the custom event type is exactly what I need if it can be made to work...

comments: author: Andrey K
body: William,

Unfortunately, this piece of documentation does not cover the problem. Use Case: I have a Calendar with some custom event types, for example, "Competition". I need to move the Calendar from one confluence instance to another. The only way to do that is to export-import via ics file. This works, but, the custom event types are lost. On the new confluence where I import the Calendar from ics file all the events of type 'Competition' will be set to default event type instead. I checked the ics file and from what I see the custom event type is lost on the export operation. The event type is set to 'custom' instead of 'Competition', like this: X-CONFLUENCE-SUBCALENDAR-TYPE:custom

So is there any way to do export-import operation with the Calendar containing custom event type from "source" Confluence to "target" Confluence so that the custom event types are also imported-exported?

Thanks,

Andrey

Team calendars can't load JIRA events as response from Project "didn't make sense" - what is going on here?
Asked by Melinda Atkinson:

We are trying to evaluate the Team Calendars plugin within Confluence. We have app links set-up to JIRA , however, when we try to add JIRA events in Team Calendars we get the following errors displayed:  
* We can't load events in \<Project Name\> - Releases. The response from project = "\<Project Key\>" didn't make sense.
* We can't load events in \<Project Name\> - Issues. The response from project = "\<Project Key\>" didn't make sense.

Any ideas on what this means? Else, any ideas on how we can see the response from JIRA so we can try and debug what it is sending to Confluence.

I verified the JIRA iCalendar plugin is available and up to data. The Team Calendar plugin returns a list of JIRA Projects and Filters etc to select from , so app link is working, it's just that it cannot understand the response from JIRA to it's event load request.

We are using JIRA v6.4.11, JIRA Agile v6.7.11, JIRA Portfolio v1.10.4, Confluence v5.8.5 and Team Calendars v5.3.4 (trial license only).

Thanks in advance
