Allow (internal) sharing of subscribed webcal calendars

[grafenhofer]

Sharing of subscribed webcal calendars is currently not possible. One usecase is an "administrator" subscribing to an external public holiday calendar, which is then shared to all "users". Shared subscribed calendars should be accessible via caldav (see relevant bug report https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/1497).

One usecase is an "administrator" subscribing to an external public holiday calendar, which is then shared to all "users".

This is only doable easily if users belong to a group (eg. group « users »).

I am also interrested in this feature. My use case is that i have some friends sharing their google calendar with me and i don't want to rely on anotherr app on every devices and subscribe to all their ics calendars on all my devices.

Thank you !

This would be a great feature! (especially to reduce the server requests to an external server in combination with server side handling of WebCal to query a subscribed calendar in certain intervals like mentioned in #1497 )

Is there any progress on this?

is there any progress on this issue yet?

+1 for making this a feature as it is the determining factor for me switching to this calendar for my team.

@About7Deaths Please use the Github Reactions feature instead of commenting +1, 👍 etc. These kinds of comments just unnecessarily notify everyone subscribed to this issue. Thx! :)

This feature relies on https://github.com/nextcloud/server/pull/10059, which I hope to get into Nextcloud 14. Hence we can tackle this sharing issue with Nextcloud 15.

Our use case is publicly sharing a foreign calendar, which has been subscribed from another groupware system.

This would be great. i tried already to manipulate DB by subscription imported calendar event with calendartyp = 0 instead 1 but it did not work

Is there any way to push this?

Is there any way to push this?

By contributing a pull-request :)

This feature is still very much wanted. Is there any progress?

[ruedigerkupper]

An alternative would be a way to add a calendar subscription for every user (of a group). That way an admin could subscribe every user of a group to the same (public) external calendar. This is obviously not the same thing as sharing it inside Nextcloud, but it would look the same from the persepctive of the users. The calendar shows up in their calendar app. Is there a way of achieving this using occ commands (or manipulation the database directly)?

When is this coming?

[joe7ean]

Thoughts on a possible workaround: How about having a technical subscriber account and then transfer the subscribed calendar data internally via API to the "administrator" iser calendar so that the "transferred" data can be shared with groups? Unfortunately my API skills are still rather poor so I don't see a way to test this. Anyone?

[wilhelmy]

Any chance of getting this feature? Our use case for this would be that some of my friends I'm sharing my nextcloud instance with would like to subscribe to an organization's public calendar.

[brotkastn]

I have to use software that, after some nagging, added the option to subscribe to a calendar with events created by that software inside the calendar.

It would be fantastic if that subscribed calendar can be added to every user. Alternatively, sharing the calendar for other users would be nice too :)

Thank you for your work, have a nice day!
