Calendar Groups

Calendar groups organize related calendars in the left sidebar. They do not create new permissions on their own, but they make large calendar lists manageable.

What A Group Can Do​

  • collect multiple calendars under one label
  • let you show or hide a whole group quickly
  • keep related calendars together in the sidebar
  • give you a separate rename, assign, and delete workflow without deleting the calendars themselves

Create A Group​

  1. Open Calendar.
  2. Find the Groups section in the left sidebar.
  3. Click + Group.
  4. Enter the group name.
  5. Choose whether it is visible by default.
  6. Save the group.

Rename Or Edit A Group​

  1. Click the pencil icon on the group row.
  2. Change the group name or the visibility flag.
  3. Save the update.

The current UI supports short, descriptive names best because long names quickly crowd the sidebar.

Assign And Unassign Calendars​

You can assign calendars to a group in two ways:

  • open the group assignment action and select calendars from the list
  • drag a calendar row onto the group card in the sidebar

Unassigning a calendar removes the groupId link. The calendar itself remains active and visible in the workspace.

Hide, Reorder, And Delete​

  • Hide toggles the group visibility state.
  • Reorder is stored in local browser storage, so it is a per-browser preference.
  • Delete removes the group only. Calendars inside it become ungrouped.

Ownership Rules​

  • Owned calendars can be assigned or unassigned.
  • Shared calendars can be visible in your sidebar, but group-management writes still follow ownership rules.
  • Deleting a group does not delete calendars or events.
