Putting your calendar on the web via a URL

You can do this for one or more of your own account's calendar(s) in your own Outlook account. Or even an EGA! (CIT has dropped its documentation for how to do this for an EGA, so take that for what it's worth, "support-wise".)

• You can create topic-specific calendars within your own account instead of just using the (primary) one given to you be default. Share any or none of those calendars via this method.

These steps worked for Oliver:

• Log into on-line, <outlook.cornell.edu>.
  • Switch to your EGA account, if wanting to use one of those calendars instead.
• Go to Options => Calendar => Shared calendars => Calendar publishing.
• Select Calendar and permissions (ex. Full details). Then select the HTML link to share or post on a web page. Done!

Olvier tested this with the ChemIT EGA, and was also successful (since disabled):

• https://outlook.office365.com/owa/calendar/fe61680995b0459188ff487ada04362e@cornell.edu/dd14fadd80254fc9923da838ca535d6411345421060963532824/calendar.html

As a test, Oliver created a calendar called "TestChemGrad" from his own account, as a contrast to doing so within an EGA:

A neat example Oliver found, 8/27/15:

To schedule a meeting:

1. Browse my calendar (switch to "week view") and identify a vacant 30-minute time slot between 10am-6pm.

2. Switch to "week view" (top right corner) and it will be easier for you to see my hour-by-hour availability.

3. If possible, please choose a time slot that is adjacent to an existing "busy" slot so as to reduce the fragmentation of my day. Please avoid scheduling a meeting with less than 24 hours notice.

4. Then, send me (perhaps provide your email address) a meeting invitation directly (e.g. using Outlook Ctrl-Shift-Q or Google calendar event "Invite Guest").

Thanks!

The link pattern I had found at <http://lipson.mae.cornell.edu/calendar.htm> is much shorter and cleaner than the link I got to actually work (and which I used above):

  • N.B. Professor left for Columbia 7/1/15, so may not work much longer.
