What Calendar does

Pick one to see it.

The dates you already wrote down

A date in a paragraph, a table row, a task or a decision becomes an event, with mentions as participants and the surrounding text as its title. No macro is needed on the page before a calendar can read it.

  • Byline shows how many dates a page holds

Working sample

Try a calendar

A sample team calendar with dates from pages and events saved in the calendar. Switch views as on the Calendar page, then add an event.

Sample

A sample calendar for November 2026. Switch views, add an event, and see it appear.

November 2026

Add an event

Dates on pages show up by themselves. A date in a paragraph, table row, task or decision becomes an event, and the page byline says how many dates it holds.

Anyone signed in can follow a saved calendar from Google Calendar, Apple Calendar or Outlook with a personal iCal link.

3 things to notice

A calendar macro on the page

Leave its source unset and it shows the dates on its own page. Point it at a saved calendar to share one across pages.

Plan with the rest of the page

Calendars sit beside the content they relate to, so the plan and its dates stay on one page.

Also in the All-in-One

Calendar is also a capability in Capable for Confluence. In the suite, dates also show as a panel and column in Capable Search.

Questions, answered from the docs

Each answer links to the page it comes from.

Where do events come from?

Three places: Capable Event macros on pages, Confluence’s own date chips on pages (in paragraphs, table rows, tasks and decisions), and events saved inside a Capable calendar.

Can I see a calendar in Google Calendar, Apple Calendar or Outlook?

Yes. Open a saved calendar, choose Subscribe, create your personal link and hand it to Google, Apple or Outlook. It is read-only: changes made in those apps don’t come back to Confluence. How often the app checks for updates is up to the app.

Who can see a calendar?

A saved calendar is Confluence content, stored in the space or page you create it in, so it follows that location’s permissions. Confluence administrators can see and revoke every personal subscription link.

Can readers switch views inside the macro?

The macro opens in the view you choose: day, week, month, year or agenda. Readers press Maximise to open a full calendar with a view switcher.

Does it show Jira issues?

No. Calendar doesn’t connect to Jira today, so there is nothing to set up for it.
