Attachments in the calendar

Hello!

I’m struggling with something but maybe I’m looking for something that doesn’t exist.
I created an event in my calendar and attached a file to it. It synchronizes well to my mobile but I can’t see the attachment anywhere.
Is there something specific to setup for the attachment to be available?
Thanks!

You might check online for .ics templates.

The .ics can be quite complex of course and I see that under certain conditions Edit
See Post #4 a file can be simply added into the .ics … this would seem to fit with your experience that

seems to me this only works within nextcloud / murena.io unless bytes are really inlined into the event.

It’s a property to the VEVENT with a custom attribute to the file id (X-NC-FILE-ID) - not the contents.

example
ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp;FILENAME=/example.webp;X-NC-FILE-ID=96455;X
 -NC-HAS-PREVIEW=false:/f/96455

Apparently there’s a standardization drive behind doing “managed attachments”. I think clients (the mobile Apps: respective forks of Etar and Davx) need to catch up to this.

I failed to quote a Google source where an apparently “intelligent” template was included.

I guess, I do not know the environment in which @Nicoloye is working.

Sorry I was not specific enough, I uploaded a file on a calendar event in murena.io on my PC but couldn’t find it on the calendar app on my e/OS phone.

a workaround until clients can do this is: if you want to send out event invites and have an image attached, use the regular upload file facility, enable a public share link to the file, put it into the event description.
