Hi @Krivo

I have just been having a play around with this! Depending on your PHP skills you can easily generate a HTTP request for this to be generated 🙂

I have just managed to link this to a button on my app and it downloads the ical and asks the user to add it straight away 🙂

The content of the URL could be made dynamic by using the Glide template fields 🙂

Heres a demo link 🙂

`http://ablx.co.uk/ICALDEMO/index.php?location=123%20Test%20Street&description=test%20event&summary=test%20summary&url=http://www.google.co.uk&date_start=2020-2-7 01:00M&date_end=2020-2-7 22:00`

Simply by changing the text after the PHP variables you can alter the ICS file that is created 🙂

For example if your ICAL file wanted to be for the following details:

- Location - Glide HQ
- Description - A Meeting with Glide HQ
- Summary - A gathering with all the cool people at the glide HQ.
- URL - [http://www.community.glideapps.com](http://www.community.glideapps.com)
- Start Date - 2020-2-7 12:00 \*Don’t want to get up too early 😉 \*
- End Date - 2020-2-7 23:00

You could make your link like this and it would create a correct ICAL 🙂

`http://ablx.co.uk/ICALDEMO/index.php?location=Glide HQ&description=A Meeting with Glide HQ&summary=A gathering with all the cool people at the glide HQ.&url=http://www.community.glideapps.com&date_start=2020-2-7 12:00&date_end=2020-2-7 23:00`

Give it a try! However don’t embed this script as its only on my server temporarily!
