Click here to see how I test the ical feed using Google calendar? (owners)

1st April 2025 - Updated by Sanjai

If you suspect your iCal feed isn’t working properly, a simple way to test it is through Google Calendar. Here’s how to do it:

Step 1: Open Your Google Calendar

Make sure you're logged into your Gmail account. Then, head to your Google Calendar — you can usually access this from the grid icon at the top right of your Gmail window.

Step 2: Add the Calendar from URL

Scroll down on the left-hand side of the calendar view until you see “Other calendars.”
Click the “+” icon next to it and choose “From URL.”

Step 3: Paste in Your iCal Feed

Paste the iCal feed URL provided (e.g., from Booking Brain) into the box, then click “Add calendar.”

Step 4: Wait for the Calendar to Sync

It may take a minute or two, but you’ll see a confirmation that says “Calendar added.”

Step 5: View and Check Bookings

Once the calendar is added, scroll through the months to view the bookings.

You can use Google calendar to import the same feed, if Google can read the booking. Then it's likely an issue from your side.
