Options for displaying events from a table in a calendar/timeline view

Question

I've used SQL to extract key project dates from various departments and have these sitting in tables on Confluence pages, typically with columns like Date, Title, Description. I'm happy getting this all in one table if needs be.

I'd like to view these in some sort of calendar or scrollable timeline widget.

What are my options?

The 'Team Calendars' macro has a beautiful looking timeline, but I don't get how I'd get my data in to it - if there's a way (short of re-keying it :) ) great, else, what's the next best thing?

Year 2025 I am still looking for this option, it seems that even after so many years that there is no native options available for this issue.

Hi @Britta Neugebauer _yasoon_

Maybe I shouldn't have used the word 'project' :)  I meant it in the non-Atlassian sense.

I'm extracting the data from 3rd party systems, not JIRA.

Hi @Niall Poole ,

thanks for your question! You can work with the 'Teams Calendars' macro and add Jira events in a calendar or scheduler view. Here's more: Add Jira events | Confluence Cloud | Atlassian Support

Do you want to show Jira events only or do you want to set them in any context?

All the best
