Connect Your Calendar (ics feed, or Google calendar)


This allows your app to list your organisation's public events by syncing them directly with your Google Calendar or ics feed.

You can connect almost any calendar system you already use and have your app automatically update the events from that system every night, eliminating the need to update your app directly.

Here’s How:

  1. Open Subscriptions, located under your Account Menu (Click your name in the top right of your screen),

  2. Look under Active Services and find ‘Events’. Then click Config,

  3. Name your site (this is only visible to your users if you use Multisite)

  4. Decide whether you'd like to connect a Google calendar, or an ics calendar feed,

  5. Fill in the required details - learn about these at either Connecting Your Google Calendar or Connecting Your Calendar via ics feed

  6. Once setup, you’ll need to sync your calendar for the first time:

    1. Navigate to Manage > Events,

    2. Click ‘Sync’,

    3. You may be prompted to authorise your calendar by Google, or your calendar provider,

    4. Follow the prompts to authorise your calendar. You may be required to select to ‘Trust’ EzyStream - please do so,

    5. Once complete, your calendar will automatically sync each night. You can also click sync as often as you like to update your events when you wish.
