The Calendar shows your project tasks on a timeline so you can see when things are due. It shows only the tasks assigned to you (the logged-in user)—not your whole team’s tasks. You can switch between week, month, and year views, and optionally connect Google Calendar to see your personal events alongside your project work. This article explains where to find the calendar and how to use it.
What this page helps you do
View your tasks on a calendar so you can see deadlines and schedule at a glance.
See only your own tasks—the calendar is filtered to the logged-in user’s assignments, not the entire team’s.
Switch between Week, Month, and Year to zoom in or out on your schedule.
Connect Google Calendar to show your personal events next to your project tasks (optional).
Choose which calendars appear using Manage Calendars and the toggles for project tasks and Google events.
All of this lives inside a project. Go to your team’s Projects, open a project, then click Calendar in the project’s sidebar.

Helpful details

What you can do here: Click Manage Google Calendars to connect your Google account (if you haven’t yet) or to turn specific Google calendars on or off.

Turn project or Google calendars on or off
On the Manage Google Calendars screen you’ll see a list of calendars (e.g. project tasks and, after connecting, your Google calendars). Use the switch next to each one to show or hide it on the main calendar.
Helpful details
Key areas on the screen: Each calendar has a label and a switch. When the switch is on, that calendar’s events or tasks appear on the calendar view.

Good to know: Changes apply immediately. If you don’t see a calendar in the list, you may need to connect Google first (see “Connecting Google Calendar” below).
Connecting Google Calendar
The calendar can show your Google Calendar events next to your project tasks. That way you see your personal schedule (meetings, reminders) in one place with your assigned work. Connecting is optional and uses your own Google account.
When Google isn’t connected: Connect Google Calendar
If Google Calendar isn’t connected yet, you’ll see a message like “Connect your Google Calendar to view your personal events” and a Connect Google Calendar button. Click it to start the connection.
Helpful details
Key areas on the screen: The message explains that connecting lets you view your personal events. The Connect Google Calendar button starts the process.
What you can do here: Click Connect Google Calendar to sign in with Google and allow Boardssey to read your calendar. You’ll be redirected to Google and then back to Boardssey.
Good to know: Only your own Google Calendar events are shown. The calendar in Boardssey still shows only your project tasks (not the team’s); adding Google just overlays your personal events.
Start the connection with Connect Google Calendar
Click Connect Google Calendar to open Google’s sign-in and permission screen. You’ll sign in with your Google account and then choose Allow so Boardssey can display your calendar events.
Helpful details
Key areas on the screen: The Connect Google Calendar button is the main action. After you click it, you leave Boardssey briefly for Google’s sign-in.
What you can do here: Complete the Google sign-in and grant access. After that, you’ll return to Boardssey and your Google calendars will be available under Manage Google Calendars.
Good to know: Boardssey only reads your calendar to show events; it does not create or edit events in Google Calendar.
Sign in with Google and allow access
Google’s screen asks you to sign in. Choose Sign in with Google and pick the Google account you use for your personal calendar. On the next screen, click Allow so Boardssey can read your calendar events.
Helpful details
Key areas on the screen: This is Google’s sign-in and consent screen, not Boardssey. You may see Sign in with Google, account choices, and an Allow button.
What you can do here: Sign in with the correct Google account, then click Allow to grant read-only access to your calendar.
Good to know: If you have multiple Google accounts, use the one that has the calendar you want to see in Boardssey. You can revoke access later from your Google account settings if you change your mind.
After connecting: choose which Google calendars to show
Once Google is connected, Manage Google Calendars shows your Google calendars with a switch for each. Turn the switch on for any calendar you want to see on the Boardssey calendar, and off for ones you want to hide.
Helpful details
Key areas on the screen: The list includes your project tasks and your Google calendars. Each row has a switch.
What you can do here: Toggle each calendar on or off. Only calendars with the switch on appear on the main calendar view.
Good to know: You can change these anytime via Manage Calendars → Manage Google Calendars. Disconnecting or revoking access in Google will stop events from showing until you connect again.
Viewing tasks on the calendar
Your tasks and events on the calendar
The calendar shows your assigned project tasks (and, if connected, your Google events) on their dates. Each block or label is a task or event. Click one to open its details.

Helpful details
Key areas on the screen: The task details show the task name and usually more info (description, due date, assignee). You may see a way to close the panel or navigate back to the calendar.
What you can do here: Read or edit the task, then close the panel to return to the calendar. Any changes you make (e.g. due date) will be reflected on the calendar when you refresh or switch views.

Tips & common questions
Why don’t I see my teammates’ tasks?
The Calendar is “My Calendar”—it’s filtered to the tasks assigned to you. To see everyone’s tasks, use All Tasks (list or board) from the same project.
Where does the calendar live?
Inside each project: open Projects → choose a project → Calendar in the sidebar. Each project has its own calendar with your tasks for that project.
Can I hide project tasks and only see Google events?
Yes. Open Manage Calendars → Manage Google Calendars and turn the switch off for the project-tasks calendar. You’ll then see only the Google calendars you left on.
I connected Google but don’t see my events.
Open Manage Google Calendars and make sure the switch next to the Google calendar you want is on. If you have several Google calendars, only the ones with the switch on are shown.
How do I disconnect Google Calendar?
You can revoke access in your Google account settings (Google Account → Security → Third-party access). After that, Boardssey will no longer show your Google events until you connect again.
