Q: Any plans to add CalDav team?

We kinda, sorta have this already (partially at least). It might be what you're looking for: When a recipient books a meeting, they're given a confirmation page that gives them a few links to add to their calendars, including the generic .ics file.
hawketteYeah, no. That's not what most CalDav users are asking for. We're just so dang tired of NO applications supporting CalDav like they do Google or Outlook (which are both companies that are PROVEN to sell user data - HUGE privacy concern, just in the ethics and morals of it..... not to mention the centralization of data... anyways...)
CalDav as in - check to see if OUR caldav calendar has any openings and sync back to the app, and then, write in the scheduled appointments into our CalDav calendar. Honestly, at this point, I don't care if the customer booking uses CalDav or not (they can use the ical download file anyways, and they'll get reminder emails) - I just need ANY booking/appointment tool that SYNC TO MY CALDAV CALENDAR.
Sorry for the wry, frustrated, and all caps sentences.... but I am nearly TEARING MY HAIR OUT trying to find a booking solution that syncs with CalDav that doesn't charge me an arm and a leg for All the other Fancy Features they have that I don't need (like LeadsBridge and AppToTo)
Everyone who requests CalDav anywhere else just gets flat out ignored or talked down to like not real users, like we're cavemen or something, and we better "hop on the bandwagon"
Anyways, while it's not a widely requested feature, CalDav support is IMPORTANT to keep a free and open source internet. The reason why it's not requested, is because no one knows about it. The reason why no one knows about it, is because Google & Microsoft hold the market share. The reason they hold the market share is because no one supports anything other than those two apps. The reason no one supports anything else (aka CalDav) is because "no one" requests it.... See how that works....
I'm at the point where I'm just going to hire out my calendar management for someone to manually check for appointments and fill them into my self-hosted calendar....
Please consider supporting CalDav natively - everyone who's been asking for it in Calendly and other apps will get TidyCal if you do.
basingaPLUSHi,
I'm pretty interested in that as well. As I dont use google for privacy reasons.
Cheers
f8cbcfaec34841a3ac2b7ff9b2c09053I have the same need i.e. for TidyCal to check my CalDAV calendar, which is at Fastmail. Some calendar schedulers that do CalDav are SavvyCal, ouCanBook.me, Fantastical.
calendlyI'm interested in that, too. I've just had an overlap in scheduling due to this lack of integration with CalDav.
FrankyDPLUSI would be also very much interested in a Caldav integration
n.krebs@hawkette Thank you for your comment. We are usinc CalDav as well and we are sick of nobody supporting CalDav calenders! Honestly guys at AppSumo: I would have bought this deal right away, if you'd support my CalDav calender!
Since this issue was already posted in 2021 I figure, there is no hope for getting our calenders supported...
