Remarks

This property contains the MIME-Type of the attachment. If the alarm_action is set to aAudio or aEmail the alarm_attachment property may optionally contain a base-64 binary encoded attachment. The alarm_attachment_type property is used to tell the CalDAV server what type of binary file it is receiving. This property is a standard MIME content type, in the format "type/sub-type". The most common audio types are shown in the table below:

AttachmentType File Extension Description
audio/basic au, snd basic audio, 8-bit u-law PCM.
audio/mid mid, rmi MIDI music data
audio/mpeg mp2, mp3 MPEG-1 Audio Layer II and III.
audio/x-aiff aiff, aif, aifcMacintosh audio format
audio/x-mp4a-latm m4a MPEG-4 Audio
audio/x-pn-realaudio ra, ram Realaudio
audio/x-wav wav Microsoft waveform audio
audio/x-ms-wma wma Windows Media Audio (Microsoft)

You may use standard MIME content-types for any other file type you wish to submit in the alarm_attachment property. If alarm_attachment is specified but alarm_attachment_type is left blank, no format type will be submitted with the alarm_attachment and the CalDAV server may (or may not) attempt to determine the data type itself.

The alarm_index parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the alarm_count property.
