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?

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.

We are trying to have a full view of user journeys through the web application we are developing. In the middle of the journey, there's no problem because it's more or less a traditional web application, but the beginnings and the end are not usual.
The journey begins with us sending email to the customers (don't worry, it's not spam). Is it possible to send events to Google Analytics about email being sent? I can include the UserID in those events. If I then implement user id in my web application, would I be able to correlate emails send to website visits?
At the other end of the journey, the conversions don't happen by the user that's being coverted but by a manager manually marking the user as converted in a sort-of admin-side to the web application. Can I then again inject the event that the user was converted with the appropriate UserID? Will Google Analytics then be able to map the whole journey? Do I need anything else?
The goal is for those events to end up mapped in the charts that look like this:
You'll need to do what you're asking in a CRM.
That said, I think what you CAN do is use campaign tracking and track the links in the email sent to the users. This way you'd know if they've acted on the emails or not.
Then you'd be able to track them on your site when they interact with the email. If there are CTAs on your site for the users to contact a manager to be converted, then you can track those as events, then set up goals around these events to see conversions.
I own a personal Facebook account and a second Facebook account for a bands fanpage. I want to integrate the facebook events via .ics subscription to my wordpress calendar.
Therefor I logon to Facebook with my personal account (or with my bands account, it makes no difference), then I go to one specific event and click on the "..." button next to share and then I choose "export event"
and after that I have the link for all upcoming events.
When I subscribe to this URL e.g. in macOS Calendar, no events are delivered...
Does anybody know whats going wrong here?
I am designing web application for society management,
where i am trying to give event creation functionality through google calendar.
Other members are not able to create event in the calendar. I searched a lot but I am getting only one solution i.e. to invite
through gmail or to manually add gmail accounts and give permission. But i want make this calendar public everyone can
create event through it. Is this possible? if yes How?
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.
