Google Calendar Integration - Ability to add single date cards to google calendar as a full day event

The current google calendar integration adds cards with a single date in the timeline field and no time set as a single meeting at 9am rather than a full day event. Multi date timelines correctly add as full day events.

This can be achieved by pressing the "Set time" option and double-clicking on the date to choose the time inside the day. This can be achieved with the Timeline field.

Dovidas Baranauskas There appears to be a misunderstanding, the issue is that when a time is not set, time set toggle off, the event still adds to google calendar as a 9am meeting rather than an all day event. Is there a way to force a task with only one date set in the timeline to show as an all day event in google calendar?

Martin Oakden: There is always a time set on the timeline. Initially, 9AM is the default time. If you press to set time you can see that, if you double press on the date you can set time from morning till the end of the day to be a full day blocker. If you choose a timeline of dates from one to another, they will also have time that would be from morning to the last day morning.

To set a full day event, you would need to set time from when it starts to when it ends.

Dovidas Baranauskas  There is a difference between the display in google calendar of multi-day events with the set time toggled off and single day events with the set time toggle off.
If I double click the single day and set the time to start and end at the beginning and end of the day it will block it out in the main body of the calendar rather than list it in the all day events section as it does for multi day events.   This single day event behavior is currently preventing us using the google calendar integration as it is adding multiple tasks into the 9am slot and interfering with peoples calendar.
Screens attached to show the difference between single and multiday display in google calendar.

Martin Oakden: Got it, I see the difference and I can confirm that it is a Google Calendar feature to have a full day booked, that we do not have in Favro. This then would be a new feature or update that we would need to develop.
