Google Calendar - not pulling start date

Hi


I have published my smartsheet calendar view to google calendar however it's not pulling my start dates. What should appear to be happening over 1 week is only showing 1 day (end date)


Is there a way to pull the start date into google calendar?


Thanks!

    Your google calendar integration pulls the exact way that SS is displaying normally, so that is a good thing!

    To check your settings from calendar view, click the sprocket in the upper right corner, found here

    That will open the Calendar Settings menu. There are two options for display date options: one that uses a singular column, the other that allows you to update to a range. Update to the range desired.

    Select OK to close the menu. This should update both SS and Google Calendar. If Google Calendar does not automatically update, redo the publish to Google Calendar workflow and you should be set.

    Hi, Lisa! Are the projects viewing accurately in Calendar View within SS itself?
