Steps how to how to connect your booked appointments:
In order to synchronize your bookingkit calendar with other calendars, you need the iCal URL. You can find this in bookingkit by going to "Settings" and then "Calendar feed".
The iCAL URL shown can be used to synchronize the bookingkit calendar with your other calendar programs (Outlook, Google Calendar, Apple calendar and many others).
Which experiences are displayed in my iCal calendar feed?
The calendar feed contains all the tours and activities in your calendar. Depending on whether you've activated or deactivated the feed option "show experiences without participants", the feed may or may not contain activities without bookings. You can also set the number of past and future months you want displayed.
