FROM portalpage pp
JOIN portletconfiguration pc ON pp.ID = pc.PORTALPAGE
WHERE pc.GADGET_XML = 'rest/gadgets/1.0/g/com.atlassian.jira.ext.calendar:issuescalendar-gadget/templates/plugins/jira/portlets/calendar/gadget/calendar-gadget.xml';
When adding the calendar gadget to the dashboard, ensure the Due date field is part of your screen scheme so Jira has data to pull into the calendar.
