Summary: This guide provides instructions on how to set up one-way syncing between Tithely and external calendar platforms (like Google, Apple, or Outlook) using iCal feeds, for both exporting Tithely events and importing external events.
Tithely → External Calendar (Export)
This process allows you to share your Tithely church events externally. Events will display for approximately one year from the current date.
1. In Tithely, navigate to the Events tab.
2. Click the gear icon next to Add Event and select Calendar Integration.
3. Select Export to External Calendar.
4. Copy the unique iCal URL provided.
5. Paste that URL into the subscription field of your external calendar platform.
Platform-Specific Steps for Subscription:
External Calendar → Tithely (Import)
This feature allows you to view external calendars (like a staff-only or personal Google calendar) directly within your Tithely view.
1. Go to the Events tab in Tithely.
2. Click the gear icon next to Add Event and select Calendar Integration.
3. Select Import External Calendar.
4. Paste your external calendar’s iCal URL and confirm.
Important Notes on Imported Calendars:
- Imported calendars are read-only and cannot be edited within Tithely.
- Imported events will not support volunteer management or check-in features.
