Resource Calendar Sync

Modified on Wed, 19 Aug at 5:18 PM

To sync a Resource's bookings to a calendar, you generate a GUID against their Resource record and then subscribe to a calendar using that GUID. Each Resource needs their own GUID, and the resulting calendar shows only the Jobs booked against that Resource. 


To set this up, do the following: 

  1. Go to Menu > Admin Options > Resource List
  2. Search for the Resource that you want to set up and open the Resource
  3. Click Generate next to the GUID field and copy the text
  4. Save the Resource record (reopen it afterwards to check the GUID field is populated)
  5. Subscribe (don't download) to a new calendar in iCal / Outlook / Google Calendar etc using the following URL, replacing the blue parts with the relevant details:

https://your_ceta_url/data/resource.ical.php?guid=resource_GUID


Please Note - Each calendar application pulls data from our system at different regularity which will affect how accurate the calendar is. Google calendars, for example, sometimes only does it once every few days which means the calendar can get out of sync. Other calendars allow you to set the refresh frequency.
