Getting started

Getting started with Better ics

Create your first calendar file and learn the basic Better ics workflow.

Better ics generates reliable iCal files and gives your team control over calendar content, delivery, and responses.

Before you begin

You need a Better ics account and an API credential. Keep credentials in your backend and never expose them in browser code.

Create your first event

Start with a title, start and end date, time zone, and a short description. Send this event data to Better ics and use the returned calendar link in your application.

{
"title": "Product briefing",
"start": "2026-11-12T10:00:00Z",
"end": "2026-11-12T11:00:00Z",
"timeZone": "Europe/Berlin"
}

Next steps

Continue with the application manual to manage reusable content and delivery settings.
