Guide for integration of iCal
Description of iCal
Via the iCal-API occupancies and bookings can be exchanged by iCalendar format with the Kroati portal. This makes it possible to update the occupancy calendar of Kroati system (import) and to query Kroati calendar by iCal (export), for importing or synchronizing events into other portals or a Google calendar.
So the entire calendar, as well only Kroati bookings or external occupancies, can be queried from Kroati system.
Hints for developing
A development on your part for the iCal API is usually not mandatory. You only have to add the corresponding URIs, which are then automated and periodically synchronized. After activating this functionality by our employees, you can find the corresponding URIs for each unit in our backend (for export) or you can add external URIs there (for import).
