My web-app generates an ical-feed for users to subscribe to. Works fine in Google Calender, and in Office 365/ Outlook.com using ’My Calendars’ > Open Calendar > Internet calendar.
When trying to add the calender from Outlook 2013 using My Calendars > Add Calendar > From Internet and paste the url, nothing happens. Nothing as in: also no errors. The feed is using https, think Microsoft prefers webcal.
When the feeds is added from web, it does show up and works correctly in Outlook.
It's pretty confusing for my users especially as there are no errors given; nothing happens at all.
What do I have to change to my feed to make it work from Outlook?
The current forum is for developers. That's why I'd suggest asking such questions on the SuperUser or Outlook IT Pro Discussions forums.

I am trying to obtain my production keys for my QBO app following the steps in this link
here
However, when I try to start the "App Assessment Questionnaire", I get the error message below:
You currently do not have a developer account, please click here to complete setting up your developer account. Once that is complete you will be able to access the help pages.
This is what I see, and I DO have a developer account. It won't let me continue.
Please help!
UPDATE
I see this error in the address bar:
ErrorCode=ERROR_CREATING_USER&ErrorDescription=License+Limit+Exceeded
UPDATE #2
I tried creating a brand new account, a new app, on a different PC and the same thing happened. So this is not a cache issue.
UPDATE #3
Created 2 support tickets for this issue
#00114423
#00114415
I had to use a different account to access the help site
https://help.developer.intuit.com
I've the same issue since Friday (02/18) and spent hours to figure out what's the problem.
tried from different browsers and different IP addresses
made a brand new developer account to test with it
had a 1+ hour chat session with QB support (but not developer support)
sent an email to an address received from the chat assistant
sent a feedback at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/AppAssess
According to the browser's developer tools:
the Start questionnaire button opens this URL:
https://developers.intuit.com/app/developer/appdetail/prod/questionnaire?appId=xxxxx:UUID_of_app
then it redirects to:
https://login.salesforce.com/services/auth/sso/yyyyyyyyyyy/Intuit_Enterprise?community=https://help.developer.intuit.com
finally, SSO to salesforce fails and it redirects back to:
https://developer.intuit.com/app/developer/qbpayments/docs/qbms-payments/hosted-paypage/faqs/help-redirect?**ErrorCode=ERROR_CREATING_USER&ErrorDescription=License+Limit+Exceeded**+-+Customer+Community+Login&ProviderId=xxxxxx&startURL=%2Fs%2Fquestionnaire%3Fapp%yyyyyyyyyyyyy
So, it seems to be, QB have reached a license limit at salesforce, which prevents new logins to create and the questionnaire from to load.
And the funny part is: the same thing happens, when I tried to create a support ticket and used the "Ask a question" button at https://help.developer.intuit.com/s/
Which means, I can't start the questionnaire and can't start a ticket about the error either.
I guess, if QB developer accounts whom created support tickets previously or started the questionnarie before the license limit has been reached, they have have a SSO login account at salesforce and able to fill in the form or start new support tickets, but others are stuck because of the license limit.
If somebody have a working QB developer account and able to start a support ticket, please do it, and link this page in it.
Or maybe, we should contact salesforce support to let QB know about the license limit.
I'll give it a try.
This seems to have been fixed. I tried running the questionaire and it worked.
I have also been having this problem the last several days and had the same lack of success with QB support. The URL callback error I see is:
ErrorCode=REGISTRATION_HANDLER_ERROR&ErrorDescription=Please+sign+the+terms+of+service+before+you+login+to+community
I don't see anywhere I can sign a TOS in my account page - it's possible that in fact QBO hasn't signed a TOS with Salesforce. What a joke.
I have been playing around with the Graph API to access the shared calendars and events within an organization.
I can successfully query my organization users and the calendar/events for any of those users. What I would like to do now is to generate a URL allowing you to jump to an outlook web session (eg - https://outlook.office365.com/calendar/) directly to a particular user's calendar (that you have access to).
I can see that Events have a 'WebLink' property that allows you to do this with a calendar event, but I can't find any documentation that indicates how you could jump to a calendar the same way.
I did find some old stuff implying that the old school OWA used to allow this but those url's don't look like they work anymore.
I also tried to pull apart the URL's provided when you 'share' you calendar with an external email address and it sends them a 'click here to add the calendar, or here to see a web view' etc email. That looked kind of promising because it actually DOES provide a direct link to a web version of the calendar; but it it includes a few fields in the URLthat I can't figure out (more than likely the external user auth) so I can't reverse engineer it to build one with the info I have available in the Graph API.
URL was of the form:
https://outlook.office365.com/owa/calendar/<userid>#<domain>/<52CharacterHex_ProbablyAHashedTokenForTheExternalUsersAuth>/<WindowsUserSID_ProbablyToRepresentTheExternalUserOrProxyAccessEntity>/reachcalendar.html
Anyone else got any ideas on how I can launch a web session of another uses calendar (that I have access to)? Ultimately what I am doing is creating a small management dashboard (using a summary built via Graph API data) that shows an overview of a collection of user's calendars but allows you to jump into the any individual user's full calendar if more info is required.
Publish to the web. follow this:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/share-your-calendar-in-outlook-on-the-web-7ecef8ae-139c-40d9-bae2-a23977ee58d5
basically
OWA -> Settings
Calendar -> Shared Calendars
Publish a Calendar -> copy HTML
Question: Is there a way to either confirm that an iCloud calendar is empty or, alternatively, to list the contents of the calendar?
Background: I have a number of calendars (iCloud, Google and others) that I have created over the years. I now want to manage them down to a smaller number and remove duplicate events and actions.
Currently I am looking at my iCloud calendars. A couple of the calendars appear to be empty because I cannot see anything from them on my calendar when I scroll back and forward through the months. However, it's possible that the calendar my contain something that I have forgotten but don't want to lose.
You can access iCloud calendars using the standard
CalDAV protocol. As a recent complication you need to setup an app-specific-password to access your account.
You fail to mention what programming environment you want to do this in, but:
Building a CalDAV client
is a great resource.
Basic stuff like listing calendars can also be done quite easily using tools like curl and xmlstarlet.
We are submitting an Outlook add-in app to the Office Store. Our add-in has a "Help" link in it that points to our customer care / support site. However, our support site does require a log in...our customers need to log in to search knowledge base, log a support case, etc. We have no way around the fact that our support site requires log in...this is just how our support mechanism works. So, we are getting the following comment with our rejected submission: "The current Support URL in your add-in metadata, as submitted via the Seller Dashboard, requires authentication. Please use a Support URL that is publicly available."
Has anyone come across this? If we don't have a publicly available URL for our support site, that doesn't require login, what other options do we have?
The support link submitted with your add-in metadata, is the link that will appear on the Office Store on your add-in listing as the "Provider's Website".
This link does not have to be a link to your support site; but can be a link to your main website.
Hope this helps!
You can create a public facing support site with simple text stating that support is paid/requires credentials and provide a link to the protected URL. For all unpaid/free trial users, you can list an email address within the same text.
I'm working on a service that needs to be able to read items from users' calendars. It needs to work whether the user is using Google Calendar, Exchange, Hotmail/Live, iCal, etc...
I want to do this (effectively):
calendar = Login(emailaddress, password); // Works for #hotmail.com, #gmail.com...
// For every item in the users' calendar extract the location of the meeting
for each (item in calendar)
location = item.Location;
I figure someone must have built some code that abstracts away the varied ways you login to these services and access the objects. But I haven't found anything yet. Any pointers would be appreciated. I don't really care what it's written in (Ruby, Python, C#, Java) as long as I can wrap it.
UPDATE: I've been able to get something working against the Google Calendar using the Google Calendar API. In the process I came across CalDAV and the fact that Google, Yahoo, and Apple support it. I'm going to focus on CalDAV for now, and then probably plumb in Hotmail/Live and Exchange later. I really only need the calendar event times and location so this should not be too challenging.
UPDATE 2: I have discovered DDay.iCal. I'd like to use this as my top level abstraction within my app. But I still have not found anything that will help me connect to, and interact with each of the popular mail systems. Nor have I found any code that shows how to layer DDay.ICal over CalDAV (which, theoretically, would give me Google, Yahoo, and Apple). Anyone?
There is a calendar REST API for Hotmail which is available in beta form as part of the developer preview of the Live SDK. This is also a beta interactive SDK for the REST API which you can try out at http://beta.isdk.dev.live.com. Just try out the query "/me/calendars"
