Event cost in .ICS and iCalendar imports

[natiotech]

Hello,

I was wondering how to import the event cost through .ICS files. What would be the field to use in an .ICS file so it can be imported in The Event Calendar?

Example:

BEGIN:VEVENT
UID:DS_3022
DTSTAMP:20170123T090000Z
DTSTART:20170123T090000Z
DTEND:20170123T120000Z
SUMMARY: This is the event title
DESCRIPTION: This is the event description
END:VEVENT

So far, I tried “COST:” and “EVENT COST:”

Thank you,

Hi there @natiotech,

Thanks for getting in touch with us!

As far as I’m aware the iCal format spec does not define a field for event cost. So I don’t think this is possible, hence not a feature of the importer. Anyway let me touch base with the team on this, just to be sure I’m not missing something!

I’ll be back when I have a confirmation on this,
Best,
Nico

Hey,

I could confirm what I stated in my reply yesterday with the team. SO basically it’s not possible to import an event cost via ICS.

Please let me know if there’s anything else I can help you with,
Best,
Nico
