<calendar>
This tag can be used to include an interactive calendar in a status board. Rendered as an <iframe>, the calendar offers day, week, work week, month, and year views that users can specify. In addition, users can use the attributes listed below to create appointments that are tied to a Unified Command Platform record in a table identified in the tag.
If you do not specify width and height attributes for the <calendar> tag, the default width is 100%, and the height will resize to fit the window so that scrolling is minimized or not required.
