Create and attach dynamic .ics file to Marketing Email

Posted on by cjanow3

We are trying to add a 'Add to Calendar' button on a marketing email that is based on the uniquely generated attendee link for a Teams Live Event. We are able to successfully take the generic link reserved for speakers and presenters and add this to the email, but then we lose the tracking/analytics around which attendee actually checked in or not. Does anyone have any insight? I have heard that Microsoft is adding an attachment feature in the May 2021 release, but I was not able to locate any documentation.

Hi,

The organizer of the event can invite attendees in Scheduling Assistant tab when editing the event.

After adding the attendees, including required ones and optional ones, and sending update, the event will be shown in the calendar of the attendees.

If this helped you, I'd appreciate it if you'd mark this as a Verified Answer, which may in turn help others as well.

Best Regards,

Nya

Hi Nya,

I'm not entirely sure what you mean by 'has invited the appropriate person.' It appears that the images you posted are on the presenter/speaker side of things, and not an attendee. Can you confirm?

Thanks for your response.

Hi,

The Teams Live Event can be added into the calendar if the organizer has invited the appropriate person in the event from Teams.

There is no need to add a button like this to the email. Please let me know if you have any other uses for it.
