In Salesforce Lightning Experience, a Public Calendar is a shared calendar that allows multiple users across an organization to view the same scheduled events—such as company holidays, training sessions, or product launches.
When a Public Calendar has already been created by an administrator, any user with the appropriate access can create new events and assign them directly to that Public Calendar.
This article explains how to create an event and assign it to a Public Calendar using the Calendar tab in Lightning Experience.
Note: This procedure assumes a Public Calendar has already been created by an administrator. If no Public Calendar exists, see Create and Manage a Public Calendar or a Resource Calendar before proceeding.
Click the Calendar tab.
Click New Event.
Click the X on the user value in the Assigned to field to clear the default user assignment.
Click the down arrow next to the People icon in the Assigned to field.
Change the selector to Calendars, then search for and select the Public Calendar to which you want to assign the event.
Complete all required fields in the event creation form, then click Save.
After saving, the event appears on the Public Calendar under the Other Calendars section in the Calendar view.
