Creating a Calendar Using the Create Application Wizard

Create a new application that contains a calendar.

Tip: The Create Application Wizard uses general best practices to generate the application and does not include several advanced options included in the Create Page Wizard.

To create a calendar using the Create Application Wizard:

  1. On the Workspace home page, click the App Builder icon.

  2. Click Create.

    The wizard prompts you to select a method of creating an application.

  3. Click Use Create App Wizard.

    The Create an Application page appears.

  4. Set Icon - Click Set Icon to select an application icon. The icon you select is used as the Favicon, the PWA icon, the Apple touch icon, and the App Builder icon.

  5. Name - Enter the name used to identify the application to developers.

  6. Appearance - Accept the default or click Set Appearance to change it.

  7. Click Add Page and select Calendar.

  8. On Add Calendar Page:

    1. Page Name - Enter a name for this page.

    2. Set Icon - Select an icon to display in the navigation menu for this page.

    3. Table or View - Select the database object for the calendar.

    4. Display Column - Select the column from the table or view to display in the calendar events.

      • Set as Home Page - Make this page the home page for the application. Any page previously defined as the home page will be updated.

      • Set as Administration Page - Add this page under Administration, rather than as a normal page in the application. Users access this page by clicking Administration in the main menu and then selecting it the Application Administration list.

        Note: The same page cannot be both a Home page and a page under Administration.
