CalendarEventCoordinator

The CalendarEventCoordinator coordinator class distributes individual-level interventions at a specified time and coverage. See the following JSON example and table, which shows all available parameters for this event coordinator.

Note

Parameters are case-sensitive. For Boolean parameters, set to 1 for true or 0 for false. JSON does not permit comments, but you can add “dummy” parameters to add contextual information to your files.

The table below describes all possible parameters with which this class can be configured. The JSON example that follows shows one potential configuration.
