I have an ics file that has several events and I want to make all subscribers of this calendar to receive notification about the event 10 minutes before the event in Google calendar. Is it possible with VALARM or I need to create a separate calendar with settings via Google API?
I defined two VALARM sections in my .ics file but Google calendar doesn't send me any email or browser notifications anyway:
BEGIN:VALARM
ACTION:DISPLAY
TRIGGER:-PT10M
DESCRIPTION:This is an event reminder
END:VALARM
BEGIN:VALARM
ACTION:EMAIL
TRIGGER:-PT10M
DESCRIPTION:This is an event reminder
END:VALARM
END:VEVENT
END:VCALENDAR
This is not possible to force on your subscribers. If you look at similar possibly duplicate questions, it may be possible for users to get notifications on your events IF
They switch notifications on for the subscribed calendar themselves after subscribing in google calender
OR
the events are imported (not subscribed) AND
the user has notifications switched on in their destination calendar by default.

I created an event in a public google calendar. I would like to generate invitation link (not an .ics file) that I can insert into a google form response message so that people can add the event either to their google calendar or outlook calendar.
I can generate a link to add the event to a google calendar through the 'publish event' menu option in google calendar. Can I somehow generate a link that would add the event to an outlook calendar?
I am aware of websites where I can enter information to create a google invite, outlook invite, and .ics file. But ultimately I would like to be able to update attendees if I make changes to the event.
I have implemented an API to return ICS event feed which contains nearly 20,000 events. When I create a new google calendar with this API as the URL, the calendar events doesn't sync to the google calendar and it shows empty. If I reduce the number of events in the API to about 1000, google calendar properly sync all the events and show it properly in the calendar.
I couldn't find any such limit for number of events mentioned in Google calendar documentation. Is there such a limit for number of events which can be sync from a feed url to Google Calendar?
Following screenshots shows how I added the feed URL to google calendar.
I am using google calendar API to create calendar event along with Google meet conference link. I am able to send the invite to a guest; However, I would like to add them automatically to the conference link whenever they click on the link at the scheduled time without organizer accept/decline option. Can anybody suggest me what will be parameter I need to send to the API's
I recently tried exploring iCal.NET (https://github.com/rianjs/ical.net) library to create event Calendar in my application that I can send to my clients through email.
I wanted to know that is it possible to have a link in calendar that points to a page on my website and allow recipient of the calendar to confirm their participation in the event?
Is there a way to actively tell which email addresses or google/iCal accounts have added/subscribed to a google calendar? I would like to keep track of how many and which email addresses use it or if they have unsubscribed. Currently, users can add the calendar either to their google calendar or their iCal. I own this calendar and have full access to its features should this be required.
