Make changes to an existing calendar in your Calendar App

How you get started with changes depends on what you’re looking at in the Calendar App:

• If you’re viewing a calendar: In the upper-left area of the calendar, select the dropdown arrow. Then, select Settings .
• If you’re in the Calendar List page: Go to the row of the calendar you want to edit. Then, select Settings .

Share or publish the calendar

If you’re on a different page in the Calendar App, go back to the Calendar List page to search for the calendar you want to share.

Make the calendar accessible to collaborators

Sharing a calendar creates a share link to the calendar that asks users to log in.

To share the calendar with people who aren’t shared to the sheet or report, and to make it visible on the Calendar List page:

1. Go to the row of the calendar on the Calendar List page.
2. Select .
3. Turn on the Sharing toggle.
4. Enter the email addresses or the domains of the users to add.
5. (Optional) Copy the link.
6. Select Save.

Users with access to the source sheet or report already have access to the calendar. Users with Editor permissions to the source sheet or report can edit information directly in the calendar.

Let others know about the shared calendar 

People shared to the calendar can access it from the direct link. They can also view the calendar by logging in to the Calendar App.

If you use Smartsheet dashboards or portals, consider including a link to the calendar there to make it easy for others to find.

Publish a calendar

You can publish a read-only version of the calendar.

Before you begin

• To publish a read-only calendar, you must be an Admin on the calendar’s source sheet or report.
• If both Publish and Sharing options are on, Admins or Editors of the calendar’s source sheet can directly modify the published calendar.
• Before editing a published calendar, calendar Admins and Editors must first sign in to the Calendar App.

To publish a read-only calendar

1. On the Calendar List page, go to the row of the calendar.
2. Select .
3. Turn on the Publish toggle. 
4. Copy the link.
5. Select Save.

If you want to remove access to a published calendar

1. In the Sharing dialog, turn off the Publish toggle. 
2. Refresh your browser. 

After doing this, the old URL becomes invalid.

A System Admin can disable publishing; if your System Admin has done this, the Publish toggle will be greyed out.

Share link vs. published link

Sharing is limited to individuals who are shared to the source sheet or report or who are specifically listed in the Allow Emails/Domains box. The share link requires users to log in.

A published link provides access to the calendar to anyone who has the link. Users who access the published calendar don’t have to log in to the Calendar App.

Transferring a calendar to another user

The person you’re transferring a calendar to must be an Admin on the calendar’s source sheet or report and must have logged into Calendar App at least once.

Calendar Admins

If you’re a calendar Admin, you can transfer the calendar to another user. 

1. On the Calendar List page, go to the row of the calendar you want to modify.

2. Select .

3. Enter the new Admin’s email address. 

4. Select Transfer.

System Admins

If you’re a System Admin, you can transfer a calendar between two users (including transferring calendars from a deactivated user to an active user). 

1. On the Calendar List page, select the Transfer button at the top.

2. Enter the current Admin’s email address.

3. Select the calendars to transfer.

4. Enter the new Admin’s email address.

5. Select Transfer.
