Basic configuration
The Business Calendar panel allows you to load events from any data source and display them on your Grafana dashboard.
The Data category​
For the plugin to work, you must provide a mapping for two mandatory data elements Text and Start time. You also can define optional fields to make your calendar more informative.
| Field | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Text | Yes | Event title. By default, the first text field is used. |
| Description | No | Event description. Supports multiple comma-separated values. |
| Location | No | Event location. |
| Start time | Yes | Event start time. By default, the first time field is used. |
| End time | No | Event end time. |
| Labels | No | Event labels. Supports multiple comma-separated values. |
| Color | No | Event background color. Specify a number field. Grafana will color the event background according to the specified Thresholds. |
Week Start​
For the Week and Month layouts, the plugin considers the Grafana system settings when choosing the first day of the week - Saturday, Sunday, or Monday, or uses the default day from Grafana settings.
