Google Calendar
Note
The topics in this section pertain only to Brightspot v4.8. If your project is on an earlier version, this functionality is not available.
With the Google Calendar integration, you can synchronize your Brightspot calendar with your Google Calendar. When the integration is active, the following appear in your Google Calendar:
- Drafts scheduled for publication, either individually or as part of a bulk schedule.
- Assignments with due dates.
