How do I add an external calendar to TalentAdore?

In this guide we explain how to add an external calendar to TalentAdore. This way you can see your busy time slots within the TalentAdore interview calendar to avoid double bookings. 

Importing calendar events is applicable with shared external iCal calendars. Therefore, you need to make sure that your calendar can generate a public link that can be added to TalentAdore. Here’s an example of publishing an Outlook calendar:

1. Go to your “Calendar” view and open “Settings”.
2. Click “View all Outlook settings”.
3. Choose “Shared calendars” and go to the section “Publish a calendar”.
4. Choose the calendar you wish to publish.
5. Choose what information you want to show in your TalentAdore calendar. We recommend choosing the limited view “Can view when I’m busy”. 
6. Once you’re ready, click “Publish” and copy the ICS link that is generated below. 
7. Open TalentAdore > “Calendar” page and click “Add external calendar”.
8. Paste the ICS link into the field and click “Add”.

Once the calendar has been successfully added, you’ll see your busy work calendar slots in the TalentAdore interview calendar.
