Adding Non-Marketo Events to Calendar

100% agree Amy.

It would be great if we could do this: https://community.marketo.com/MarketoArticle?id=kA050000000LNAXCA4 directly in the main calendar instead of only inside a program. Also, the schedule view is not available in Email or Engagement program types - only Default & Event program types.

I was told yesterday by Marketo that you have to create a program in Marketo to add it to the calendar.

Arjun looks like a bug in the community. I noticed a few comments missing and then found a duplicate thread upon further investiagating that just had those comments and not the new ones. Just figured some admin deleted...

Timothy - I don't think I deleted any of the comments here. I don't have that super power :)

haha okay! awesome - thanks!!! 

Marketing Activities. Each program now has a schedular view aka calendar. This is where you have the ability to create your custom items. These items will translate to your master calendar is what i'm calling it for now haha. 

Timothy, 

Did you create a program within the marketing activities or within the calendar?

Kristen,

You don't have to create a new entry type, but what they show is a way to filter your calendar further. 

From my understanding "basic" will do just fine for your needs, that step is optional. Here's a step by step which will hopefully get you to where you need to be. 

• If you are trying to create custom events, it appears you need to create a program.
• Create one called "Marketing Calendar".
• Go to schedule view within this program.
• You can create events within the calendar.
• Go to your master calendar and you can filter to see these events. 

Screen shot below to show you what I just did quickly. The "Marketing Calendar" program will hold what ever you want to show and within the master calendar you can filter to show events you want to share.

Hope this helps.
