Revisual is an app which allows you to easily create beautiful, embeddable calendar views and event alerts by integrating your Google Calendar (GCal) account. This integration automatically keeps your audience updated with your public and/or private events.
First of all, just so that we are on the same page...
You do not enter any data into Revisual. Via our Google Calendar integration, we pull in your event data from your existing Google calendar(s).

Section 5: Adding images to your Google Calendar events
Did you realize that now you will be able to add images to your Revisual calendar view? Most likely, you do not include images when you create a Google Calendar. Now you can…and put them to excellent use.
If you enabled the Google Drive API , you have now unlocked the option to auto populate your Revisual events with images.
Revisual is set up to pull in the first image which is attached to each Google Calendar event. This makes your Revisual calendar view even more eye-catching and attention-grabbing. And as we know, images are powerful helpers–boosting the messages in our words. Here's how: https://intercom.help/revisualio/en/articles/8986129-revisual-io-ninja-trick-create-images-for-gcal-events
