How to Use the ICalendar URL
- Copy the link above. You'll need to add that to your calendar program.
- Determine the calendar software: Identify the calendar software or application you are using, as the steps may differ slightly depending on the platform. Common examples include Google Calendar, Microsoft Outlook, Apple Calendar, and various mobile calendar apps.
- Open your calendar application: Launch the calendar software on your computer or mobile device. Ensure that you are signed in with the appropriate account if required.
- Locate the "Add Calendar" or "Import" option: Look for a feature within your calendar application that allows you to add or import an external calendar. This option is usually found in the settings or preferences section.
- Choose the import method: Depending on your calendar software, you may have different import
methods available. Here are a few common ones:
- URL import: If you have a direct URL to the ICS feed, select the "URL" or "From URL" option. Paste the ICS feed link you obtained in step 1 into the provided field.
- File import (not recommended): If you import an ICS file instead of referring to a URL "feed", your calendar entries will not update as you addd and change your favorites.
- Configure import settings (if available): Some calendar applications allow you to adjust import settings before adding the calendar. For example, you may be able to choose a specific calendar within your account, set a custom name or color for the imported calendar, or specify the frequency of updates from the ICS feed.
- Confirm the import: Once you have provided the necessary information, click the "Import" or "Add Calendar" button to initiate the import process. The calendar application will attempt to retrieve the events from the ICS feed.
- Wait for the import to complete: Depending on the size of the calendar and your internet connection speed, it may take a few moments for the import process to finish. Be patient and allow the application to fetch and populate the events into your calendar.
- Verify the imported calendar: After the import process completes, navigate to your calendar view and check if the imported calendar appears. It may have a distinct color or name based on your import settings.
