Manage Calendar Events on a Mobile Device

A Lightning web component can use a device’s calendar functionality to create, read, update, and delete calendar events to and from the device. When these calendar-related actions occur, the event data is returned to the Lightning web component that invoked it.

Calendar events are managed locally on the mobile device, and don’t need a network connection. However, CalendarService requires access to platform-specific APIs that are available only within compatible Salesforce mobile apps.

CalendarService does not and cannot function when running in a web browser, whether on a desktop or mobile device.
