Hi,

I’m working with booking verifications for a customer, and they would like to “Add the booking to their calendar”.

I have done some research and both Google Calendar and Outlook support “Deep Links”, meaning you can generate an URL that creates the specific event in the specific calendar when clicking on it.

However, the best solution would be to attach an .ics file. That way only one calendar file needs to be generated, and it is supported by most calendar applications.

What is the best way to generate and attach an .ics file in Appfarm?

Hi,

You can use the “Create Calendar Event” action node. It allows you to generate an .ics file for users to download or add to a data source. It also includes a built-in link to Google Calendar.

Hope this helps!

Thank you for the quick reply! Great that you have a action node for it :slight_smile:
