Calendar view not displaying a ref column from database table correctly

[MikeJones]

I am using the appsheet database rather than a google sheet.  I have a bookings table that has  a "Booked By" column that references the Contacts table in the database.   Form views  on the Bookings table that include this column work fine ... but if I use a calendar view and set the description field to the "Booked By" column it displays the ID value rather than the contacts name.

Please note that the AppSheet Database feature is currently under "Preview" only.  It is not yet ready for use in "live" apps.

Any issues related to this feature, should be posted in the announcement thread of this feature found here.

I have now reported this as a bug to AppSheet support, as it is something they should be aware of

I'm getting the same issue.  Ref columns set as a calendar view Description are showing key values, not the label.  Mine is a mysql database, but I doubt that's part of the problem.
