Import tasks on the Calendar Infomaniak web app

This guide explains how to import tasks in the dedicated section of the Infomaniak Web app Calendar (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/all/calendar/tasks).

 

Preamble

  • The .ics file is a standard container (RFC 5545) and inside this file, you will find “components”:
    • VEVENT (Event): this is what you see on the calendar grid, with a notion of occupied time (Start time DTSTART and End time DTEND or duration).
    • VTODO (Task): this is an action to be performed, often with a due date (DUE), but not necessarily a duration, and a binary status (done or not done).
  • Therefore, when importing a .ics file into the Infomaniak Calendar app, the system imports the data into the calendar and its “Tasks” section based on their type.
