I am trying to generate an iCal file from Google Calendar (http://calendar.google.com) after updating events in calendar.
When I try to download the iCal from a url I always get following:
BEGIN:VCALENDAR
PRODID:-//Google Inc//Google Calendar 70.9054//EN
VERSION:2.0
CALSCALE:GREGORIAN
METHOD:PUBLISH
BEGIN:VEVENT

Now instead of "VEVENT" I want to have "VFREEBUSY" component. How can I get that ?
I have tried options like enabling "Share only my free/busy information (Hide details)" in Google Calendar Sharing settings. But still I get the same "VEVENT" and not "VFREEBUSY" component.
I also set "Show me as:" as "Busy" in every event I created in calendar. But I never see "VFREEBUSY" component in iCal.
I was able to get this resolved. I should specify time when creating events in calendar, the Google Calendar will then generate VFREEBUSY component for each of the event.

In Google Calendar, I can select an event, click on "publish event", and obtain a URL that another user can use to add the event to their calendar. However, that is a static copy of my event. If I edit my event, the edits are not propagated to the other user's calendar. How can one add an event from another calendar, and then have that event dynamically updated whenever the original is edited?
One approach is to invite every single participant, so that they can individually accept or decline the event. However, that is burdensome when the attendee list is unknown, large, or changes frequently.
This answer is not relevant because I am starting from a Google Calendar, not programmatically creating an iCal event feed.
This answer from 2010 says to manually export the .ics file, put it on a website, advertise it to users, and manually update the served .ics file periodically. Is there a better way today?
I have a schedule event calendar in Wix.
I need to process data in it, count and show how many events/records weekly, monthly and yearly.
I believe the best way is storing data in database. Put into calendar and show the report manually.
I could not do these with Calendars in the Wix Market. Can you help me please??
I tried: - Google Calendar - Wix Event Calendar - Html embedded Team Up Calendar - Infuse Calendar - Wix Event Reservation..
In my form I have: -Name & Surname -Date & Time - Notes
I tried to relate calendar & database & form via $w("#calendar") but this just gave me "collapsed, hidden, global,...src" etc. So I was unable to access calendar's dataset. src" etc.
I am creating reservations application in CakePHP and I have action called Calendar, which Uses jQuery datepicker to display calendar. When I click on a date, I get jQuery accordion to display information about reservations on that day.
I want to know if it's possible to use my reservations data and convert it to calendar format used by Google Calendar and Outlook Calendar and sync this data with them.
For Google calendar you can take a look at the API v3 https://developers.google.com/google-apps/calendar/ or CalDAV api https://developers.google.com/google-apps/calendar/caldav/v2/guide
I'm looking for a standard calendar event? One that you can download and it puts the event into your Google or Outlook calendar? Something equivalent to vcard for contacts?
Any advice would be much appreciated :)
Yes, iCalendar.
Here are more infos, though it all can be found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICalendar
iCalendar data files are plain text files with the extension .ics or .ifb
iCalendar is a standard (RFC 5545)
MIME content type is text/calendar
Example:
BEGIN:VCALENDAR
...
END:VCALENDAR
Yes, it's called iCalendar. Google Calendar supports the iCalendar format, for example.
I have a calendar link, "http://www.lalindyhop.com/calendar_script.php"
And I want to add the events on this link to my yahoo calendar.
Do I have to ask for some other link, or I can use this one somehow to add it to my calendar.
Thanks

Your calendar link seems to have disappeared. In any case here are some links that may help:
