Details

Outlook groups 

With this release, Outlook Calendars for Confluence now supports Outlook groups (requires Office365) 🎉 You can now easily open existing group-calendars or even create a new group.  

At the same time we have polished the create and open calendar modal, which is now divided into three different tabs:

  • Personal Calendars
  • Shared Calendars (disabled when no shared mailbox is configured)
  • Group Calendars (only shown when using Office365)

Settings for displaying the personal and space calendar 

Outlook Calendars for Confluence has now a setting which allow the admin to hide the "Personal Calendar" globally. 

You can find this setting in your add-on section in Confluence under "OUTLOOK CALENDARS" → "Appearance".

Like in Confluence Cloud, the Server version now allows you to choose for each space, if the "Space Calendar" is visible.

The setting on Confluence Server can be found unter "SPACE TOOLS" → "Outlook Calendars" → "Visibility Settings".

 

Complete overhaul of the create/edit Jira calendar modal 

With this version the create and edit Jira calendar modal has been completely revised and expanded. Down at the bottom, there is now the possibility to not only show issues by duedate, but also by all system and custom datefields.

In the middle of the screen, you can choose which fields you want to see for this particular calendar.

Left: Screen for selecting the fields. Right: Resulting view when clicking on en event in the calendar.

 

Issues can be selected by a saved filter from Jira

With this update, you can choose to select the issues you want by using a saved filter from Jira


Calendar icon has now an error-state 

Error messages got improvements in this release as well. If an error occurs while loading a calendar, the icon shows an exclamation mark. When hovering over it a detailed error message will be shown.

Quick navigation between dates 

To allow a faster navigation between months, weeks and days we implemented two helpful functions

  • Days and calendar weeks are now clickable allowing to jump to a specific date/week.

  • The button next to the date allows you to select a specific date and jump to it.







  • No labels
