Google Calendar "Add by URL" will not import events
NexOne Agent serves its calendar events over a secure connection. However, Google Calendar will not import calendar events with https in the URL, and there is no documented reason. As a result, we must mask our https NexOne Agent URL with an HTTP URL. Don't worry, the events are still communicated over a secure connection.
A couple of notes regarding Google Calendar. Although we set a frequency for importing events, Google Calendar has its own algorithm for importing events. As a result, it can take some time to import all your events on an ongoing basis.
- Click on "Subscribe to your calendar" from within your NexOne Agent calendar.
- Copy your NexOne Agent calendar URL.
- Visit http://goo.gl/ (This website is a URL shortener)
- Paste in your NexOne Agent calendar URL and click shorten.
- Copy the output URL and use this URL when adding your calendar.
- Follow the steps from Google on how to add your URL. https://support.google.com/calendar/answer/37100
