History: CalDAV

            {syntax type="markdown"  editor="wysiwyg"} # {{page}}


New in ((Tiki21)): CalDAV support in Tiki ((Calendar)) via ((SabreDAV)). See also ((CardDAV)) and ((Calendar Invitations by email)).

CalDAV URL is http://example.org/tiki-caldav.php but you should point to the base URL and let your CalDAV client auto-detect settings. 
If you need to connect your Tiki calendar and your client manually, use the following syntax of your credentials: 
url: ~np~https://~/np~*example.com*/tiki-caldav.php/calendars/*USERNAME*/calendar-*ID*
user: *USERNAME*
password: *PASSWORD*

## Android DAVx5: Adding a Tiki calendar to Android in less than 5 minutes


Prerequisites:

1. 1/2: You need the DAVx5 app on your phone, which you can get for free in the F-Droid shop or buy in the Google PlayStore.
2. 2/2: You need a calendar app on your phone with CalDav sync capability . Please mind, that there are plenty appropriate free calendar apps in F-Droid and PlayStore and you do not need to use an app with advertising or in-app purchases. 
     One free CalDav sync capable calendar for Android is the "SimpleCalendar" by [https://simplemobiletools.com] 
     com.simplemobiletools.calendar / com.simplemobiletools.calendar.pro 
     You can also use the standart Google Android Calendar app (not to be confused with the online Google Calendar service).


Please mind: DAVx5 is **not** a calender frontend or standalone calendar app. 
DAVx5 adds the CalDav functionality to the Android operating system and provides this type of services to the calendar app of your choice.

1. Open DAVx5 and add a new account. You need the url to one CalDav calendar of Tiki where you have appropriate permissions, plus your Tiki username and your Tiki password of the relevant Tiki website. 
     Use this syntax: ~np~https://~/np~*example.com*/tiki-caldav.php/calendars/*USERNAME*/calendar-*ID*
2. The setup is self-descriptive. You need to provide an arbitrary DAVx5-account name for *the* Tiki user on *the relevant* Tiki website. DAVx5 will provide you a list of all calendars of *the provided* Tiki website and you can tick/untick which calendar(s) to synchronise (note: please add screenshots).
3. Your calendar app(s) will now show the Tiki calendar on your Android device. 
     Accordingly to your Tiki permissions you can (or cannot) create, view, edit and delete Tiki calendar items from your phone or tablet.
