No upcoming events

[ryanschaefer14]

@sdetweil Yes, when I copy/paste URL in browser I am able to download the ics file. I am trying to get my Magic Mirror to update when I update calendar via Alexa. The default calendar in the Magic Mirror config file nor my public Google calendar show up. I am just getting “US Holidays; no upcoming events”

[sdetweil]

@ryanschaefer14 ok, the default holidays calendar was for 2018. Not 2019.

There is another. I don’t know what the link is myself.

[sdetweil]

@ryanschaefer14 does the url start with webcal://

If so, change to https://

[ryanschaefer14]

@sdetweil Oh that makes alot of sense.

The google calendar I have been trying is in the format:
https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/....................gmail.com/public/basic.ics
I have made it public as well.

@sdetweil
I found the 2019 calendar link :
https://www.calendarlabs.com/ical-calendar/ics/76/US_Holidays.ics

I also found an error in my calendar which I was able to fix and it now works correctly. Thank you for your assistance.

Hi everyone!

I have a raspberry pi 4 4 gb model that is experiencing the same error.

I’ve tried the posts I posted earlier, but unfortunately none of it works for me. When I try to open the public .ics url in a browser I get 404 not found error and it can be read in terminal too.

Could you help me?

[sdetweil]

@KicsiG83 does the url start webcal:? if so change to https:

[KicsiG83]

@sdetweil
I try it webcal and https public and private url, but none of them works.

@sdetweil
Okay, I found my mistake. 2-step access prevents access from less secure applications.

[sdetweil]

@KicsiG83 oh yeh, MFA/Two step auth stops all the fun

Hello, I too am getting this error, and this is my link.

https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/ioniaisd.org_44nlnatni9hl965bmbs894hvko%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics

and my code looks like this.

{
                        module: "calendar",
                        position: "top_left",
                        config: {
                                colored: false,
                                coloredSymbolOnly: false,
                                calendars: [
                                        {
                                                symbol: "calendar",
                                                url: "https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/ioniaisd.org_44nlnatni9hl965b$
                                ]
                        }
                },

[sdetweil]

@Buncie I get error 404 for that calendar link

[Buncie]

Does that mean it’s not public? I went into google calendar and copied the public ical link it gave me.
Should I reset it?

[sdetweil]

@Buncie no idea, its not public for sure

[Buncie]

I went to the settings and it should be public now.

[sdetweil]

yep, downloaded… so it should work now in calendar

Thanks. Although the calendar I used was the wrong one. But everything seems to be okay.
