Time zone is a problem.

Hi!

Thank you for the hacky script.

I went through the instructions from this page I converted the URL from this page The calendar was successfully imported into Google Calendar from the URL option.

BUT.

  • events are shifted forward by 2 hours in my case.

eg. the original time in Notion is 14:30 the imported time in google calendar will be 16:30

I honestly do not understand what's going on here. I have no idea if it is related to your conversion or to Notion in the first place.

The calendar is imported as: (GMT+00:00) UTC

In this case, the property cannot be changed from the settings calendar page from the web browser.

My timezone is: (GMT+02:00) CEST

  • Are there any default or primary time zone either in your script, in Notion or in google calendar that I am not aware of?

In any case thanks for your thing.

I have been dreading the day until someone discovered a timezone bug. However, I expected it would come from someone in a different timezone than myself. I tested this again and I can't seem to reproduce it.

Could you send me a link to a calendar that has this problem? If you want, you can send it to me privately at [email protected] if you don't want other people to see it.

I'm guessing the ICS file generated has its timezone set to (GMT+00:00) Coordinated Universal Time? A fix could be to get the timezone from notion's event and adding that to the iCal event?
