Once set up, your listings always have the most up-to-date availability with little to no effort.<\/p>\n<h2>What is iCal sync?<\/h2>\n<p>iCal is an open calendar standard that allows different calendar systems to share availability data automatically. When you set up iCal sync on Uniplaces, your confirmed booking dates are exported as a feed that any iCal-compatible calendar app can read.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If you manage your rental availability across multiple tools or calendars, iCal sync eliminates the need to update each one manually.<\/strong> Changes sync automatically \u2014 keeping your listing accurate at all times without any extra effort.<\/p>\n<h2>How to set up iCal sync<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Go to ap.uniplaces.com\/listings<\/strong> and log in to your landlord account.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Choose your listing<\/strong> and click <strong>Edit<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Click &#8216;Update the Availability&#8217;<\/strong> and paste your external calendar link into the field provided.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Click &#8216;Sync calendar&#8217;<\/strong> and then <strong>&#8216;Save it&#8217;<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>That&#8217;s it \u2014 your availability is now synced. Your listing will automatically reflect updates from your external calendar without any further manual action.<\/p>\n<h3>What if a step doesn&#8217;t work?<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Calendar link not accepted<\/strong> \u2014 make sure you&#8217;re pasting a valid iCal URL. It should end in <code>.ics<\/code> or contain <code>ical<\/code> in the link. Contact the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uniplaces.com\/city-explorer\/en\/contact-support\/customer-support\/\">Uniplaces support team<\/a> if you&#8217;re unsure whether your calendar link is in the correct format.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sync calendar button not appearing<\/strong> \u2014 make sure your listing is fully published and approved.

See <a href=\"\/help\/landlords\/managing-listings\/update-availability\/\">How to Update Your Availability Calendar<\/a> for details.<\/p>\n<h2>Troubleshooting sync delays<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Wait a short while<\/strong> \u2014 syncs don&#8217;t happen in real time.

Go to Edit on each listing and follow the same steps to add a calendar link for each one.<\/p>\n<h4>Does iCal sync automatically confirm or cancel bookings?<\/h4>\n<p>No \u2014 iCal sync only updates availability data. It does not automatically confirm or cancel booking requests. You still need to accept or decline requests in your Uniplaces Personal Dashboard as usual.<\/p>\n<h4>What format should my calendar link be in?<\/h4>\n<p>Your calendar link should be a valid iCal feed URL \u2014 typically ending in <code>.ics<\/code>. Most calendar tools provide an option to copy or export a shareable iCal link from their settings. Contact the Uniplaces support team if you need help identifying the correct link format for your calendar tool.<\/p>\n<h4>What happens if a conflicting booking occurs due to a sync delay?<\/h4>\n<p>Contact the Uniplaces support team immediately.
