This is a quick tutorial on how to subscribe to your Táve calendar feeds from Microsoft Outlook so that your Táve events will show up alongside your other Outlook calendars.
Creating Your Calendar Feeds in Táve
The first step is creating the Táve calendar feeds you’d like to use. You can create a number of different feeds based on your needs. For example, if you have multiple employees in your studio you can create a feed that will show only events that the individual employee is an attendee on. If you’d like to give someone a more private feed of just your availability shown as simply “busy” or “free”, you can do that too.
You can create these feeds in Settings › Calendar Settings by clicking on the New Calendar Feed button as shown below.
You can now customize the following in each Táve calendar feed you create:
Kind of Event: Confirmed, Tentative, All Events, Availability Busy/Free Only
Event Type: Restrict the feed to only include specific account Event Types
Job Type: Restrict the feed to only include specific account Job Types
Brand: Restrict the feed to only include specific account Brands
Attendee: Choose from any existing contact in your Address Book or create a new one on the fly (see more on creating calendar feeds for event attendees)
The last option is to restrict the feed to show only the past 3 months of history, as opposed to the default showing the entire history of events, if you prefer this option.
Once you’ve saved the new calendar feed, you’ll see a URL created (as seen in the top screenshot above). These URL’s are what we will need later to setup the feed subscription in Microsoft Outlook.
Adding Your Calendar Subscription in Microsoft Outlook
Sign in to outlook.com and select your calendar. In the navigation pane, select Add Calendar:
In the pop-up, choose Subscribe from web, enter the URL of your Táve calendar feed, customize your options and Import:
It may take a few moments to import your feed and it will continue to pull in new changes.
NOTE FROM OUTLOOK: Updates to calendar subscriptions can take more than 24 hours but should usually happen within 3 hours.
Calendar subscriptions in Outlook can be removed by clicking the ... next to that subscription in the navigation pane and selecting Remove:
