Syncing Google Calendars with Liferay Calendar Portlet

Junior Member Beiträge: 46 Beitrittsdatum: 23.09.09 Neueste Beiträge
I have created a test calendar portlet, and managed to download the .ical file from Google Calendar, and import it into Liferay. I am wondering if there is a way to create a shared google calendar between users who can create/modify events online, and it automatically syncs the information into Liferay?

If so, how would I go about this?

Thanks!

You would want to script something to create an ical file from Liferay and upload that to Google and download an ical from google and import it into liferay.

Thanks Lisa.

I will look into that.

For the time being, when you export an .ical and import into Liferay then it merges the data on the site, which is what I'm wanting. However, it doesn't remove duplicates. Is there a way to only import new calendar entries, rather than all entries?

I'm not sure.... that is a good question tho... anyone know the answer to it??? If it can't currently be done, how about adding it as a Calendar improvement
