With most servers it is sufficient to enter just server name (and port number) into the "Server name or URL" field.

Examples

CalDAV-Sync will try several common path names to find your calendars.

In some cases the app can not find your calendars. This may happen if you installed your server in a custom location (i.e. a sub path) or if you're running other web services on the same host that stops auto-discovery. In such cases just give the app the path to your principal home or your calendar home.

Examples

  • caldav.example.com/principals/
  • sogo.example.com:8443/SOGo/dav/
  • caldav.example.com/davical/caldav.php/

If you want to sync a calendar that belongs to another user and that is not linked to your calendar home, enter the full path to the calendar.

Example

  • cal.example.com/caldav.php/someusername/somecalendarname/

You should always check Use SSL according to your server's configuration.

help
