Understand Message Cards in Calendar View

Updated 

Message cards in the Calendar view help you quickly review key post details across the Month, Week, and Day views. Each card displays information such as the account name, message name, publishing status, and scheduled publishing date and time.

You can also customise the calendar layout by showing or hiding message properties and the time axis in the Day and Week views for a more compact display. Additionally, you can hover over sections of a message card to view more details about a specific element.
