Import iCal Events

To access this form, from the menu choose VIEW | IMPORT | IMPORT ICAL FILE and follow the steps below:

Copy and paste the URL to the calendar file into the URL box

OR

Use the BROWSE button to browse for a local file.
Select the calendar the events go into using the dropdown.
Select the default Event type. If an event is imported, and that event does not have an assigned category, then this event type is used. If the event has assigned categories that do not exist in Connect Daily, the categories will be automatically added.
Import Event Times - Some iCal files have times on the events, even though they are actually all-day, untimed events. Uncheck this option to discard the event times.
Use Privacy Class - If this option is checked, then any events marked as private will be imported as private.
Click on the Import button.

If all goes well, you will get a message indicating how many Items were imported. Any Events not imported will be displayed. If you have many events, you can EMail the URL or file to technical support and we can take a look at it.

Notes

After you do this the first time you may need to use the Repair security screen to set the security for any added Event Types.
Once an event is imported into a calendar, it stays associated with that calendar even if you rerun the import with a different calendar selected.
