Airtable allows you to create an iCal subscription link for a view, but the feed only provides the date/time as well as the single Primary Field in a record. This automation allows you to select a few other fields to include: the Event Title, Location, or Notes of a calendar entry.
Demo
Here is an example iCal feed that’s generated out of the sample view below:
💡You should copy the link above to import it in your Calendar app (Mac, Outlook, Google Calendar, etc)
Features
- Can have multiple calendars.
- The ICS feed is always live when you refresh your calendar.
- Supports 8 different event field types:
- Start Date
- End Date
- Summary
- Description
- Location
- URL
- Organizer Name
- Organizer Email
If you click on the sample view below, you’ll see the table that’s used for the demo above.
Is it possible to change which field dictates the label of a record in calendar view?
(to show something other than the PRIMARY FIELD in a calendar view)
Changing the primary field in Airtable’s calendar view is not possible unfortunately. However, you can use our Calendar extension if you would like to change the primary field in your calendar app.
