How to add 'Add to Calendar' Event to emails?

2 min read

An “Add to calendar” link allows email recipients to instantly add an event (including date, time, location, and details) to their calendar platform, such as:

  • Google calendar
  • Apple calendar
  • Outlook calendar

The link can either:

  • Open a pre-filled Google Calendar event page, or
  • Download a .ics file that works across most calendar applications.

Steps to add “add to calendar” to emails

First, copy the calendar URL you want to share in your email. Here’s how you can get the link from different calendars:

First, create an event in Google Calendar, then click on the event you created and select Publish event.

Don’t forget to make the event public by going to Settings, selecting the event, and checking the Make available to public box.
