Option 2: Copy Link

  • Click on Copy link to manually add the calendar to your chosen application. Instructions for adding this link to Outlook, Google Calendar, and other applications are detailed below.

 

Adding to Outlook Calendar (Web Version)

For the best and easiest configuration, we recommend using the web version of Outlook to add your calendar.

1. Open Outlook in your web browser: Go to Outlook.com and sign in to your account.

2. Go to the menu on the left sidebar: Click on the Calendar option.

3. Add Calendar with WebCal Link:

  • Click on Add Calendar from the toolbar at the top.

Adding to Other Calendar Applications

For other calendar applications, the steps are usually similar. Find the option to Add Calendar or Subscribe to Calendar. Once found:

 

1. Look for a field that allows you to enter a web link for the calendar.

2. Paste the link into the field.

3. Save your changes. Your calendar should now be visible and update automatically with new events.

 

Most modern calendar applications support adding calendars via a web link, so this method should work across various platforms. If you encounter difficulties, check the help centre for your specific calendar app for further instructions.
