Default iCal Feed?

Is there a way to push out a RSS/XML/iCal feed of a user's calendar from Zimbra? I'd like to be able to share a XML URL with people I choose so they can see all my calendar.

-Chris

First you need to enable some sharing > right click the cal > see pic (there's other ways to enable I'm just assuming your using the web-client).
You can have internal & external users automatically get notification emails to make it easier for the other person to be aware of the share & to accept/add it.

Whats you're looking for:
http:// server.domain.com/zimbra/home/username/Calendar.atom
http:// server.domain.com/zimbra/home/username/Calendar.rss
http:// server.domain.com/zimbra/home/username/Calendar.ics
http:// server.domain.com/zimbra/home/username/Calendar.html


Or put /Calendar?fmt=html on the end, etc.
(As far as I know .xml isn't implemented yet.)

-'user' & 'home', as well as 'service' & 'zimbra' are mostly
-Depending upon if you're already logged in/permissione etc, you can replace accountnames with ~ to view your own.
-Some are interchangeable/often not needed & you can construct in a variety of ways. ie:
/user/~
/home/accountnamehere
/zimbra/user/~/
/zimbra/home/~/
/zimbra/user/accountnamehere/
/zimbra/home/accountnameehere/
/service/home/~

In v5, we added the ability to go to http:// server.domain.com/home/username/Calendar.html to see an easily readable day/week/month view. (The publisher must share the calendar specifically or publicly in order for you to see it.)

Another new & cool ability with 5.0.1+ is to get free busy info by visiting http:// server.domain.com/home/username?fmt=freebusy which will display an aggregate HTML calendar for all the user's free-busy data. (Of course you can always choose to select "exclude this calendar when reporting free/busy times" if you wish.)

The time range can be specified in a number of different formats:
(milliseconds UTC)
MM/DD/YYYY
YYYY/MM/DD
{relative dates}

For units, everything after the first character is ignored (except for the "mi" case):
m(onths)
mi(nutes)
d(ays)
w(eeks)
h(ours)
y(ears)

Relative dates are either in the future (p/+/{not-specified}) or the past (m/-), along with a numeric value, followed by the units.Examples:
1day 1 day from now
+2days 2 days from now
p1day 1 day from now
-2days 2 days ago
+60mi 60 minutes from now
+1week 1 week from now
+6mon 6 months from now
1year 1 year from now

The start/end query parameters apply to the atom, ics, rss, and ifb formatters, so like:
http:// server.domain.com/zimbra/home/username/calendar.atom?start=0days&end=30days
http:// server.domain.com/home/username/testcal.html?view=month

Default Errors in week and day view

Hi,
when i use a url such as http:// server.domain.com/zimbra/home/username/Calendar.html, the month view is ok but if i change to week or day view all appointments are 1 day early. I looked at the page source and found the following:
<a href="?view=day&amp;date=20081112">

Tue, Nov 11
</a>
Clearly the date label does not agree with the href, one pointing to tues nov 11 and the other to nov 12th. Can you suggest a fix?
cheers

Other than the view= parameter, what other parameters can I pass to Calendar.html to adjust its initial appearance?
