Hi - Does anyone know of a way to add an ‘Add to Calendar’ button to email templates for appointment reminders? This would be part of a reoccurring journey triggered by appointment data.

I know there is a litmus/eventable option but these can not be made a recurring event and needs to be adjusted manually each time.

Looking to add something like this 

 

We do something similar for Google and Apple/Outlook Calendars and Appointment Reminders. Maybe it helps

We trigger an email off a Custom Event with dataFields which houses the links living in href={{googleLink}} and the href={{icsDownloadLink}} as dataFields in the Custom Event schema. We upload the calendar icons into Iterable as src

If you’re using the drag/drop template you can place an HTML block.

*You have to replace the icon links, src, any customization, and add any other calendar option you want

<tr>
                <td
                   align="left" class="text" style="font-size:0px;padding:10px 25px;padding-right:20px;padding-bottom:40px;padding-left:20px;word-break:break-word;"
                >

      <div
         style="font-family:Sofia Pro, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:16px;line-height:1.5;text-align:left;color:#606969;"
      ><img alt="Google Calendar Icon" height="24" src="INSERT YOUR GOOGLE ICON" style="position: relative; top: 6px;" width="24" class="link-icon" />
          <a class="link" href="{{REPLACE WITH YOUR DATAFIELD}}" style="padding-right: 0px">
            Google</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&emsp;<img alt="iCal Apple Icon" height="24" src="INSERT YOUR APPLE ICON" style="position: relative; top: 6px;" width="24" class="link-icon" /><a class="link" href="{{REPLACE WITH YOUR DATAFIELD}}" style="padding-right: 0px">
            iCal</a></div>

                </td>
              </tr>

 

@Alexis Mencos the key here being the link itself! Everything you’re looking for is actually available via Google Calendar, not Iterable. Ask OpenAI or another well-trained AI for how to do it and they’ll lead you in the right direction!

If you still need help after some self-guided searching, DM me and I’ll see if I can help. Cheers!
