Configuring the Google Calendar synchronization


You can configure the synchronization between Brightspot and Google Calendars using combinations of sites, future events, and content types. For example, the following combinations in Brightspot can be synchronized with a Google Calendar:

  • Scheduling drafts of articles on a Blog site.
  • Creating new assignments on a User Conference site.

To configure a Google Calendar synchronization:

  1. Click menu > Admin > Sites & Settings.
  2. In the Sites widget, select the site for which you want to configure this setting.
  3. Under CMS > Calendar > External Calendar Distributions, click add_circle_outline Add.
