      Using MM as a family dashboard. A family calendar was accidentally deleted and looks to be not recoverable. I found the URL in the code that I got from Google when I set it up. Alas, it goes to an error page.

      Recently, the calendar via MM started showing events again even though the URL is still dead. Did MM possibly cache the URL or is doing something else to download it?

      How could I use this to recover or download my .ics file?

        @pcmofo we do not cache the ics

        you can try

        curl -sL the_url >mycal.ics

        over and over

        if the mm cal shows it you should be able to download it

        i would do this over ssh so you can watch the calendar and execute the curl command at the same time

        ls mycal.ics -laF to see if the size is not 0

          @sdetweil Thanks for the suggestion. It returns an error page so the size is always not zero. I had entered some events into the calendar months ago that are occurring this week so it could be the case that the calendar was cached at some point.

          I was hoping to find a directory where this might be stored locally.
