Impact: All users

Institutions can now control which users can create events in the Base Navigation Calendar with a new system-level entitlement Calendar>Create Personal event. This update gives institutions greater control over calendar event creation within their learning environment.

If the Calendar>Create Personal event entitlement is not granted:

  • Users can’t create personal events in the Base Navigation Calendar.
  • Calendar tool is hidden in Base Navigation if users have no existing events in their calendars and lack this entitlement. Users don’t have permission to import Calendar events from external files (Settings).

When users possess the privilege of the Calendar>Create Personal event entitlement:

  • Users can create personal events using the Base Navigation Calendar.
  • The add calendar option is displayed.
  • The Calendar tool appears in Base Navigation.
  • Users can import Calendar events from external files (Settings).

For administrators: This feature is available for all System role users including None. There are no configurations needed.
