Adding CanvasLive to my calendar

[richardm]

Just wondering if there was a way to add CanvasLive events to my Google calendar (without having to type it in...)?

Hi  @richardm ​...

I'm not too familiar with how Google Calendar works, but as long as you are able to import an *.ics file into your Google Calendar, I think you should be able to do this following this website: Import events to Google Calendar - Calendar Help

When you are looking at a CanvasLIVE event (ex: #Canvas4Elem: Canvas in the Non 1:1 Elementary Classroom), there is an Actions menu at the top right corner of the screen.  From there, choose Add to calendar.

Since this question doesn't directly relate to anything within Canvas, I'll go ahead and move this to the Meta Community Group​ here in the Canvas Community where people post questions about this part of the website.

Hope this helps, Richard!

Outside of JIVE, we keep a list of all calendar events on a Google Calendar.

Here are the links to add to your calendar and/or embed to another website:
