Hi Guys,

I've created a Power App to address some of the gaps with event calendars today.  The Power app takes data from 3 calendars on 3 sites, that aren't part of the same hub site, and mashes it up into an easy-to-consume snapshot view of the next 7 days.

 

I'm using it to share multiple categories of date info in a segregated quick snapshot view:

  1. Official Company Events
  2. Notices and Alerts (maintenance windows, facility issues, etc)
  3. Employee Announcements (promotions, new hire start dates, assignment transitions, etc)

If you're interested, check-outhttp://straightenthemaze.com/2018/12/17/delivering-a-consolidated-snapshot-from-multiple-sharepoint-calendars/ that goes into great detail.  I've also posted the Power App as a template you can download and tweak to use on your site.

 

 !! IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT ALL LINKS: Since my original comment, I have retired the site that all this information is published on.  You can instead download from Dropbox here:

Hi All, 

I just released a significant update to this free calendar consolidation PowerApp template.

  • For PowerApp newbies, It now includes a quick step-by-step video tutorial on how to change my data sources to your calendars.
  • Bug fix with how SharePoint handles All Day events vs scheduled events--where some events didn't show correct time.
  • New landscape version that will take up less page real estate on SharePoint page.
  • Design alignment with look & feel of Calendar events in SharePoint.

Check out the update https://straightenthemaze.com/tools-and-reference/sharepoint-helpers/company-happenings-power-app-template-update-to-version-2/?community
