I am trying to edit a file that a transport company sent me which automatically set my trip information in my calendar . I want to edit this file so that it can reminds me other events but, when i change the date and send it to myself or another email adress, it doesn't set the event automatically anymore. What is the problem?
Even sending the same file, not even changing the date, gives the same problem.
i tried to read this guide https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5545#page-165 but have not found anything...

I would really appreciate some help.
SOLVED!! the voice "organizer" must be the mail who send the event and you have to write the mail of the receivers to the "attedee" voice (i don't know yet if this is strictly necessary)

I am using Outlook 365. When I forward received emails, I want all text after a particular string ('regards' in the example below) to be deleted.
For example, I receive the following email which I want to forward:
From: Sender Gmail sender#gmail.com
Sent: Saturday, 18 February, 2023 02:58
To: Receiver receiver#gmail.com
Subject: DTP Query
Hello Receiver,
Hope you are doing well.
Please review the project and let me know the cost and turnaround time.
Best regards

abc#gmail.com
I want the header removed:
From: Sender Gmail sender#gmail.com
Sent: Saturday, 18 February, 2023 02:58
To: Receiver receiver#gmail.com
Subject: DTP Query
I want to retain:
Hello Receiver,
Hope you are doing well.
Please review the project and let me know the cost and turnaround time.
Best regards
And all information after regards to be removed:

abc#gmail.com
Is there a way to do this?

I am not a technical guy, so didn't try anything.
Outlook 2016 or Outlook 365 is not recognizing attached ics file. The rsvp buttons are not showing in the email body but it does display correctly in gmail. I am able to download the ics file and import it into outlook.

Here is how the MIME email type is constructed
var m = new mail();
m.setSubject( 'event' );
m.setTo( test#email.com );
m.setFrom( "noreply#email.com" );
m.addPart( type="text/calendar", body="#icalFile#");
m.addParam( type="text/calendar", file="invite.ics", content="#icalFile#");
m.send();
Turns out the email MIME type wasn't added correctly. The code below now displays the RSVP buttons correctly.
In ColdFusion addParam() type can set more than one parameter.
m.addParam( type="text/calendar; charset=utf-8; method=REQUEST;"
, file="invite.ics"
, content="#icalFile#");
i create event on google calendar using ics file successfully but when i'm trying to delete/cancel this event using ics file its not working.

mainly i use uid to identity specific event
Try adding status:cancelled as per the RFC5545 spec
https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5545#page-93
Not sure but you may also need a SEQUENCE (check spec for exact syntax ) to indicate which is latest modification.
I'm running a sabre CalDAV server and I'm using iCal on Yosemite as a client. Now, I create an allday recurring event in iCal and use the Charles Proxy to check the body of the request, that is sent from iCal. Creating the event it sends correct data:

But if I change a single occurrence of the repeating event and choose to only apply the changes to this occurrence, iCal sends the old calendar-data back to the server without any changes. If I apply the changes to all occurrences, the correct data is sent. If I choose to only apply the changes to future events, it correctly alters the old event and creates a new event for the future occurrences. But then again, no changes on a single occurrence are sent to the server.
This is only happening for allday events. Timed events are working just fine. It also doesn't matter if I create the rrule with "count" or by "until".
If I change a single occurrence and export my calendar from iCal I also get the correct calendar-data, although this data is not sent to the server (different event):

There, I can finally see the vevent with a correct recurrence-id.
Any ideas? Anyone else ran into a similar problem? I have no idea, what could be causing this...
Thanks in advance!
Okay, this must have been a calendar bug. After enabling debugging I found this error:
Apr 6 12:20:11 XXX.local CalendarAgent[229]: [com.apple.calendar.store.log.ICS] [CaliCalTranslator: Event 97323C3B-753D-46E5-830E-E182BEAA5E0D has invalid instance on date 2016-04-11 00:00:00 +0000. Filtering]
I updated calendar from Version 8.0 (2026) to Version 8.0 (2034.9) and now everything is working as expected.
I am facing several issues related to the creation of an ICS file which has to be compatible with several clients, especially iOS, Gmail, Outlook, Android and Windows Phone. Googling around, I found out the proposed standard from 2009, aka RFC5546. I read through this document and found a point which is very interesting and could potentially solve my issue. Section Methods for VEVENT Calendar Components explains the distinctions between methods REQUEST and PUBLISH. But, there are a couple of points which are not really clear to me:
What should PUBLISH do? Should it add a new calendar? Should it create a new calendar (like in Outlook or iOS) or should add the event in the existing user calendar (like in Gmail or Lightning)? EDIT: note the calendar as a file attached to an e-mail.
Can PUBLISH contain more than one event? From the document and logically, yes, but Gmail then adds only the first event of the list. Lightning adds only one event and then gives a 804a0004 error.
How should REQUEST work? The document states: VEVENT | 1+ | All components MUST have the same UID. which means a calendar may have more than 1 VEVENT but they must have the same UID. Then, how can I client distinguish between those events? And in fact no client I tried is able to distinguish the events generated with the same UID, but they add only the one with highest SEQUENCE. Logically, I don't want to send more than one event per invitation, but the RFC allows me to do that (and in my case study I want to), so how?
With REQUEST, forgetting the statement VEVENT | 1+ | All components MUST have the same UID., so providing a unique UID to each event in the ICS file, Gmail and iOS add all the events contained in the file, while Lightning and Outlook add only the first one. Is there a way to pursue this path or since it should not be allowed I should find another way?
Basically, how do you suggest to proceed to add more events with a single ICS file to the users' calendar for the platforms I mentioned?

About 1) it is not clear how you communicate the events to the client: is it via iMIP (email) or through an HTTP URL ? In any case, there is no right answer to your question: iTIP is about transport of iCalendar data.
About 2) yes, you can have multiple events in a PUBLISH stream
About 3):
iCalendar has a notion of exception for recurring meetings. Those exceptions are represented by a VEVENT with the same UID and a RECURRENCE-ID indicating the particular instance that shall be considered an exception.
As a consequence, a REQUEST can only be used to transmit a single event (only one UID) but this event itself might be expressed as a set of VEVENT: one for the master (e.g. meeting every friday at 10:00) and one for each exception (e.g. except on Friday 12/12 where it will take place at 09:00).
See for example the last event in https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5546#section-4.4.8
