I have been trying to enter data into the calendar component but I'm looking for an easy way for my team to enter data swifty. I would like to do this using a form. or get the data from a table in our database . how would you advice me to go through with it?
Hi there,
Thanks for reaching out to us!
I believe the best place to start is having the form match what the calendar is expecting.
Create a variable and set it to an empty array, or an array of dates from your database.
Then create a query like so!
let dates = variable1.value
dates.push({
allDay: false,
color: colorInput1.value,
end: dateTime2.value,
eventId: "Event" + Number(calendar1.data.length) + 1,
groupId: "",
start: dateTime1.value,
title: textInput1.value
})
variable1.setValue(dates)
Let this query be the Submit Event Handler for your form, as well as an upsert query for your database. The latter part is important for the dates to persist!
There is a similar thread with this setup here: How to create event by selecting a date on the calendar?
Let me know if this setup works for you!
