Hello,
We have a calendar feed that looks like this:
BEGIN:VCALENDAR
VERSION:2.0
METHOD:REQUEST
X-PUBLISHED-TTL:PT2H
BEGIN:VEVENT
UID:12579
DTSTAMP:20170410T161732Z
organizer:bodeg@#########.###
DTSTART:20160103T210000Z
STATUS:CONFIRMED
DESCRIPTION:Guest Housing - Modular Graduate Students (20 rooms)
SUMMARY:Guest Housing
LOCATION:######### (F-Dorm)
DTEND:20160117T170000Z
PRIORITY:5
CLASS:PUBLIC
END:VEVENT
END:VCALENDAR
I was hoping to tie into the Aggregator with filters and change event statuses based on “CLASS:PUBLIC” (or PRIVATE), amongst other changes. However, it seems the import actually is converted to JSON and stored on ea.theeventscalendar.com? Is that correct? And in that JSON feed the CLASS is not stored.
Can someone confirm if there is any way to work with custom data like this during the import?
Thanks.

Thanks for using our plugins and welcome to the forums!
Great question you have there, let me try to answer that for you.
Event Aggregator supports the standards of iCal (and other services where it can import from). Customizations are not officially supported.
Also Event Aggregator is a service running on our servers, so converting the data from the provided source and converting it to “The Events Calendar-data” is done on our side, however the data is not stored. We simply do not have the capacity to store all that data that is running through our servers, so all of them are automatically purged after a short period of time.
The only way of working with custom data that comes to my head would be using a csv file, where you can map the columns to the different fields.
Does this clarify the question for you? Let me know.
Cheers,

This thread has been pretty quiet for the last three weeks, so we’re going to go ahead and close it to avoid confusion with other topics. If you’re still looking for help with this, please do open a new thread, reference this one and we’d be more than happy to continue the conversation over there.
