2. Click or drag to create Events
You can click on a particular date or time slot in Capable Calendar and it will open the create event panel. This allows you to quickly add events directly in the Calendar and have these shared with your teammates.
2. Provide more details about events
Add all the important details with a growing list of supported fields, making it easy to capture the full picture directly in the calendar.
Some of the fields available to store on each event:

2. Show events from Confluence Pages or Tables
You can add events to your Confluence calendar by simply typing dates or event details directly into Confluence pages using //. If you need to specify start and end dates, the Capable event macro provides a more detailed option with /event. This flexibility makes it easy to quickly capture key dates and milestones in your workspace, whether you need simple date tracking or full event details.
