A customer inspired me to look at how to improve SambaJAM, so that it would fit into their everyday workflow. Many of us use Google Calendar to keep a track of meetings and important dates. Well it is now possible to use Google Calendar while in SambaJAM.

Our Web Dashlet can be used to embed web pages of other sites and in addition allows users to embed their Google Calendars.

We have put together a guide below on how you can add your Google Calendar to your SambaJAM Dashboard using our Web Dashlet.

1. Log into your Google Calendar



2. View your calendars and click on the down arrow to open the calendar action menu. Here choose Calendar Settings




3. Inside the Calendar Settings find the "Embed this Calendar Section". Copy the src url. This is the bit in quotations.

   E.g. "http://www.google.com/calendar/embed?src=ouremailaddress%40googlemail.com&ctz=Europe/London"





4. Go to your SambaJAM Dashboard and click on the Add Dashlets button. Select and add the Web Dashlet. The Dashlet will be added to your Dashboard.



5. Close the Add Dashlet Menu and click the Settings button on the Web Dashlet

   The Setting Form will open. Paste the URL you have copied into the field marked "Source URL" and click Save.



6. You now have your Google Calendar available on your Dashboard.

   Please note the google calendar will only display if you are logged into your google account.
