Since there’s no way to set the field inside of Airtable, we’ve built an extension for Airtable that allows you to change the event name to any other field in external calendars. It generates you a calendar ics link that you can subscribe to in any calendar app.
I desperately need this feature. I have some tabs that have the concatenate formula for the primary field, but that isn’t an option in all of the tabs. We shouldn’t have to work around and upend our own systems because this still hasn’t been implemented or even responded to by anyone from Airtable. This would be insanely helpful and like others have already said, should be similar to the Kanban and Gallery views so you can edit what shows up easily.
Yes, this is key. Current functionality assume the primary key is useful which is a poor assumption. A good example of where this fails is if you are displaying names on a calendar for assignments. In terms of work calendars (projects, timesheets, etc.) the names are not unique (many will have multiple assignments) and so cannot be the primary key. In these important cases, the calendar view cannot be used.
Another request for this feature. There are customizable cards in Kanban view and it makes no sense why there isn’t the same functionality on Calendar views.
Would love to see this too. I want the calendars to work exactly the same as gallery view, where I can select multiple fields to be displayed in the calendar. Please!
