outlook live calendar showing different dates about calendar-link HOT 16 CLOSED

I've been meaning to submit a PR for this but if you want a quick fix in your application, I've been doing this:

const outlook = calendar.outlook(event);
console.log('Outlook: ' + outlook.replace(/(\d{4})(\d{2})(\d{2})T(\d{2})(\d{2})(\d{2})/g, '$1-$2-$3T$4:$5:$6')); 

from calendar-link.

The date/time format has changed.

It now no longer accepts YYYYMMDD\THHmmss,
must now be YYYY-MM-DD\THH:mm:ss

Like so:

https://outlook.live.com/calendar/0/deeplink/compose?startdt=2020-08-12T00:00:00&enddt=2020-08-13T12:00:00&subject=Hello%20World&body=Hello%20World

from calendar-link.

The replacement has been added in v1.3.1, thanks to @paulboocock!

Hi @AnandChowdhary I see that InteractionDesignFoundation/add-event-to-calendar-docs#10 is merged. Any rough ETA on when it might be fixed in this repo?

from calendar-link.

Thanks for opening this issue, @govardhan5. Perhaps Outlook changed some of the parameter names when I updated the UI, I'll have a closer look.

Thanks for the response @AnandChowdhary . Can you please let me know approximate estimation date to fix this issue if possible?

from calendar-link.

Honestly, my plate is a little full at the moment. I might have some time this weekend to look into this, otherwise I'll make sure I get into it next week.

That's right, thanks! We're discussing this in InteractionDesignFoundation/add-event-to-calendar-docs#10 and I'll push an update to this repo soon.

Ah, cool. I did look at that project but somehow missed the PR / issue. Good to see the docs will get the update too! 👍

from calendar-link.

Feel free to pick this up! I'll need more time to get to it; though it's trivial, my hands are pretty full these days.

an updates on this? the package works great otherwise, but the outlook/office365 links don't receive correct dates, so it defaults to today. i'm passing it an .toISOstring(), but i tried a bunch of things, and nothing worked. google works fine, with ISO.
this is the ics in comparison:

VERSION:2.0
BEGIN:VEVENT
URL:MYURL.com
DTSTART:20200830T160000Z
DTEND:20200830T173000Z
SUMMARY:My meeting
DESCRIPTION:Description here
LOCATION:Some location
END:VEVENT
END:VCALENDAR

from calendar-link.

thanks a lot. works on both outlook and office calendars.

Would love a PR!

The outlook/office365 fix doesn't seem to take timezone into account.

If I pass in 20200924T170000Z to 20200924T180000Z for start/end times, it shows different values for Google vs Outlook.

Google converts the times to the user's timezone while outlook seems to always use 5-6PM.

I'm still experiencing this issue at version 2.0.11. Instead of YYYY-MM-DD, YYYYMMDD format is used
