CalDAV Control
Properties Methods Events Config Settings Errors
The CalDAV Control implements an easy-to-use interface to the Calendaring Extensions to the Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning protocol (WebDAV). In this manner the CalDAV protocol specifies a standard way of accessing, managing, and sharing calendar events based on the iCalendar format.
Syntax
CalDAV
Remarks
The CalDAV &control allows remote management of calendars and their events. Supported operations include creation, deletion, listing, copying, and moving of events. Resource locking is also supported.
The GetCalendarReport method will list the event resources contained in the calendar, and the ReportFilter can be used to limit the results returned. The EventDetails event will be fired for each matching calendar resource. You may also request a report containing a list of times that the owner is free or busy using the GetFreeBusyReport. The FreeBusy event will fire for each entry received, and the data fired in the event will also be stored in the FreeBusy property.
Single events can be added to a calendar (or updated) using the CreateEvent method, and can be retrieved via the GetEvent method. Events may be copied or moved with the CopyEvent and MoveEvent.
The following properties are used when creating a request with CreateEvent or ExportICS, and will be filled after calling GetEvent or ImportICS. These will also be available from inside the EventDetails event, which is fired for each event received from the CalDAV server in response to a GetCalendarReport.

Each method that acts on the calendar takes a ResourceURI parameter, which points to either an event resource or to the calendar itself. Event resources have a URI that ends with a filename and the ".ics" extension. Calendar resources end in a directory path. The following methods all act on events, and thus their ResourceURI parameters must terminate in a filename with the ".ics" extension:
These methods all act upon the calendar collection resource (the calendar itself): The LockCalendar and UnLockCalendar methods may operate on individual events or on the whole calendar.There is no standard format for resource URIs. Google for instance, uses "https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/" plus your
email address to access the default calendar. So "https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/username@gmail.com/"
is the base URI for the default calendar. If you have multiple calendars, replace the email address portion above with the
Id of the calendar, plus "@group.calendar.google.com/". For instance:
"https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/ev3nkr4ua83jej7q32oumn5eeo@group.calendar.google.com/".
For Google, calendar events are stored in the "/events/" path. To retrieve a report on a calendar, you'd add "/events/" to
one of the above paths. For example:
CalDAV.GetCalendarReport("https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/username@gmail.com/events/");
Leaving the "/events/" out of the URI will result in an HTTP protocol error: 405 Method not allowed.
To add or retrieve an event, add the UID of the event you're creating or retrieving plus ".ics" to the path.
Note that when putting an event with the CreateEvent method, if the resourceURI and the UID do not match
Google will create the event using the UID stored in the UID property. The actual location of will be newly
added event will be returned in a "Location" header. This is the resource URI you must use to retrieve the event
with GetEvent. For example:
CalDAV.UID = "1234567890";
CalDAV.CreateEvent("https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/username@gmail.com/events/1234567890.ics");
Yahoo uses a different format for CalDAV access. Yahoo's ResourceURIs always start with "https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/"
plus your user name, plus "/Calendar/" plus the name of your calendar. For
instance: "https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Your_Name" for the default calendar. (Yahoo uses your name
to create the default calendar). When using the CreateCalendar event to create a new calendar, replace "Your_Name" in the
URI with the desired name of your new calendar. Event resources are located directly under the "/Calendar/Calendar_Name/" path.
Like Google, the UID and filename portion of the resource URI must match, but Yahoo will actually return an HTTP protocol error
if they differ. The examples below show a few possible transactions:
CalDAV.User = "username";
CalDAV.Password = "password";
CalDAV.CreateCalendar("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/", "My Hockey Calendar", "My Hockey Calendar");
CalDAV.StartDate = "20100401T040000";
CalDAV.EndDate = "20100401T060000";
CalDAV.UID = "qwerty1234567";
CalDAV.Summary = "First Practice";
CalDAV.Location = "Rink on 1st and main";
CalDAV.EventType = vEvent;
CalDAV.CreateEvent("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/qwerty1234567.ics");
CalDAV.GetCalendarReport("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/");

0
Remarks
This property will tell the control which type of authorization to perform when the User and Password properties are set.
This property should be set to authNone (3) when no authentication is to be performed.
By default, this property is authBasic (0), and if the User and Password properties are set, the control will attempt HTTP Basic Authentication. If AuthScheme is set to authDigest (1), authNtlm (4), or authNegotiate (5), then Digest, NTLM, or Windows Negotiate (Kerberos) authentication will be attempted instead.
If AuthScheme is set to authProprietary (2), then the authorization token must be supplied through the Authorization property.
If AuthScheme is set to authOAuth (6), then the authorization string must be supplied through the Authorization property.
Note: If you set the Authorization property and AuthScheme is not authProprietary or authOAuth, then the AuthScheme will be set automatically to authProprietary (2) by the control.
For security, changing the value of this property will cause the control to clear the values of User, Password, and Authorization.

Remarks
This property identifies the state of the event in the calendar. An ETag is returned by the CalDAV server after a successful CreateEvent request. Every time an event is updated, the ETag changes. This gives you the ability to determine if another user has changed the event you added.
You can use this ETag value to maintain a cache. If you submit a GetCalendarReport request with the ReportFilterReturnCalendarData property set to False only the URI and ETags for each event in the calendar will be returned in the report. You can cache the ETag and URI locally, and then inspect the report for any changes and update only the events that have changed ETags.
When updating an event with the CreateEvent method, you may add the ETag to the "If-Match" header (using OtherHeaders)
in order to insure that you are not overwriting more recent changes on the server. For instance:
calDAV.UID = "20110202T000000Z-6414-500-10112-204@nsoftest";
calDAV.StartDate = "20110202T000000Z";
calDAV.EndDate = "20110202T110000Z";
calDAV.TimeStamp = "20100301T000000Z";
calDAV.Summary = "Dinner with friends";
calDAV.Description = "Getting everyone together for some food and fun";
calDAV.Location = "The James Joyce Irish Pub";
calDAV.EventType = CaldavsEventTypes.vEvent;
calDAV.OtherHeaders = "If-Match: 1900-1900\r\ n";
calDAV.CreateEvent "https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/user_name/Calendar/My_Calendar/20110202T000000Z-6414-500-10112-204@nsoftest.ics"
If the current ETag for the above event is "1900-1900", then the above modification will work perfectly.
However, if the event was modified on the Yahoo server, the ETag will not match and the above will fail with
an HTTP Protocol error: "409 Conflict". In that case you should retrieve the event with GetEvent and update
the most recent version.
This property is filled from the response to a GetEvent, and is also used when creating an event to be added using the CreateEvent method. However, when requesting a report using the GetCalendarReport method, the contents of this property will only be valid inside the EventDetails event.

Data Type
Integer
FirewallHost Property (CalDAV Control)
The name or IP address of the firewall (optional).
Syntax
caldavcontrol.FirewallHost[=string]
Default Value
""
Remarks
The name or IP address of the firewall (optional). If a FirewallHost is given, the requested connections will be authenticated through the specified firewall when connecting.
If this property is set to a Domain Name, a DNS request is initiated. Upon successful termination of the request, this property is set to the corresponding address. If the search is not successful, the control fails with an error.
Data Type
String
FirewallPassword Property (CalDAV Control)
A password if authentication is to be used when connecting through the firewall.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.FirewallPassword[=string]
Default Value
""
Remarks
A password if authentication is to be used when connecting through the firewall. If FirewallHost is specified, the FirewallUser and FirewallPassword properties are used to connect and authenticate to the given firewall. If the authentication fails, the control fails with an error.
Data Type
String
FirewallPort Property (CalDAV Control)
The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) port for the firewall Host .
Syntax
caldavcontrol.FirewallPort[=integer]
Default Value
0
Remarks
The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) port for the firewall FirewallHost. See the description of the FirewallHost property for details.
Note: This property is set automatically when FirewallType is set to a valid value. See the description of the FirewallType property for details.
Data Type
Integer
FirewallUser Property (CalDAV Control)
A username if authentication is to be used when connecting through a firewall.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.FirewallUser[=string]
Default Value
""
Remarks
A username if authentication is to be used when connecting through a firewall. If FirewallHost is specified, this property and the FirewallPassword property are used to connect and authenticate to the given Firewall. If the authentication fails, the control fails with an error.
Data Type
String
FollowRedirects Property (CalDAV Control)
Determines what happens when the server issues a redirect.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.FollowRedirects[=integer]
Possible Values
frNever(0), frAlways(1), frSameScheme(2)
Default Value
0
Remarks
This property determines what happens when the server issues a redirect. Normally, the control returns an error if the server responds with an "Object Moved" message. If this property is set to frAlways (1), the new URL for the object is retrieved automatically every time.
If this property is set to frSameScheme (2), the new URL is retrieved automatically only if the URLScheme is the same; otherwise, the control fails with an error.
Note: Following the HTTP specification, unless this property is set to frAlways (1), automatic redirects will be performed only for GET or HEAD requests. Other methods potentially could change the conditions of the initial request and create security vulnerabilities.
Furthermore, if either the new URL server or port are different from the existing one, User and Password are also reset to empty. If, however, this property is set to frAlways (1), the same credentials are used to connect to the new server.
A Redirect event is fired for every URL the product is redirected to. In the case of automatic redirections, the Redirect event is a good place to set properties related to the new connection (e.g., new authentication parameters).
The default value is frNever (0). In this case, redirects are never followed, and the control fails with an error instead.
Data Type
Integer
FreeBusyCount Property (CalDAV Control)
The number of records in the FreeBusy arrays.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.FreeBusyCount
Default Value
0
Remarks
This property controls the size of the following arrays:
The array indices start at 0 and end at FreeBusyCount - 1.This property is read-only and not available at design time.
Data Type
Integer
FreeBusyRange Property (CalDAV Control)
Contains the date/time range when the calendar owner is busy.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.FreeBusyRange(FreeBusyIndex)
Default Value
""
Remarks
Contains the date/time range when the calendar owner is busy. The format for this property is either "DATETIME/DATETIME" or "DATETIME/DURATION"
The date/time format is "YYYYMMDDThhmmss", where "T" indicates the break between date and time. You may also append a 1-character alpha code for the timezone. For instance, "20100104T123456Z" indicates January 4th, 2010 at 12:34:56 PM UTC.
Durations are represented by the format P<date>T<time>. The date component may contain a number of days or weeks (but not months or years), and the time component may consist of hours, minutes, and seconds. These are represented by an integer value followed by a letter representing the units, as specified by the table below:
P | is the duration designator (historically called "period") placed at the start of the duration representation. |
W | is the week designator that follows the value for the number of weeks. |
D | is the day designator that follows the value for the number of days. |
T | is the time designator that precedes the time components of the representation. |
H | is the hour designator that follows the value for the number of hours. |
M | is the minute designator that follows the value for the number of minutes. |
S | is the second designator that follows the value for the number of seconds. |
This format is based on ISO-8601, but unlike the ISO specification this duration property does not support durations measured in years or months.
The FreeBusyIndex parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the FreeBusyCount property.
This property is read-only and not available at design time.
Data Type
String
FreeBusyType Property (CalDAV Control)
Indicates the busy status of the corresponding BusyRange .
Syntax
caldavcontrol.FreeBusyType(FreeBusyIndex)
Default Value
""
Remarks
Indicates the busy status of the corresponding FreeBusyBusyRange. A calendar may use custom values for the FreeBusyBusyType, but the standard values include:
- BUSY
- FREE
- BUSY-TENTATIVE
- BUSY-UNAVAILABLE
The FreeBusyIndex parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the FreeBusyCount property.
This property is read-only and not available at design time.
Data Type
String
Idle Property (CalDAV Control)
The current status of the control.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.Idle
Default Value
True
Remarks
This property will be False if the component is currently busy (communicating or waiting for an answer), and True at all other times.
This property is read-only.
Data Type
Boolean
LastModified Property (CalDAV Control)
The date and time that the information associated with the calendar event was last revised in the calendar store.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.LastModified[=string]
Default Value
""
Remarks
This property contains the date and time that the information associated with the calendar event was last revised in the calendar store. This is analogous to the modification date and time for a file in the file system, and must be specified in the UTC time format: <date>T<time>Z, where date is in "YYYYMMDD" format and time is in "hhmmss" format. "T" is the delimiter between date and time, and "Z" is the UTC timezone indicator. For example, "20020119T13:23:56Z" is 1:23:56pm on January 19th, 2002. The date/time format is "YYYYMMDDThhmmss", where "T" indicates the break between date and time. You may also append a 1-character alpha code for the timezone. For instance, "20100104T123456Z" indicates January 4th, 2010 at 12:34:56 PM UTC.
This property is filled from the response to a GetEvent, and is also used when creating an event to be added using the CreateEvent method. However, when requesting a report using the GetCalendarReport method, the contents of this property will only be valid inside the EventDetails event.
Data Type
String
LocalHost Property (CalDAV Control)
The name of the local host or user-assigned IP interface through which connections are initiated or accepted.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.LocalHost[=string]
Default Value
""
Remarks
This property contains the name of the local host as obtained by the gethostname() system call, or if the user has assigned an IP address, the value of that address.
In multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface) setting LocalHost to the IP address of an interface will make the control initiate connections (or accept in the case of server controls) only through that interface. It is recommended to provide an IP address rather than a hostname when setting this property to ensure the desired interface is used.
If the control is connected, the LocalHost property shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface).
Note: LocalHost is not persistent. You must always set it in code, and never in the property window.
Data Type
String
Location Property (CalDAV Control)
Defines the intended venue for the activity defined by a calendar control.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.Location[=string]
Default Value
""
Remarks
This property may be used to explicitly specify the venue, such as conference or meeting rooms, for the activity defined by a calendar component. An alternate representation may be specified using a URI that points to directory information with more structured specifications of the location. For example, the alternate representation may specify either an LDAP URL [RFC4516] pointing to an LDAP server entry or a CID URL [RFC2392] pointing to a MIME body part containing a Virtual-Information Card (vCard) [RFC2426] for the location.
This property is filled from the response to a GetEvent, and is also used when creating an event to be added using the CreateEvent method. However, when requesting a report using the GetCalendarReport method, the contents of this property will only be valid inside the EventDetails event.
Data Type
String
LockType Property (CalDAV Control)
The type of the current resource lock.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.LockType[=string]
Default Value
"write"
Remarks
The type of the current resource lock.
Before the calendar resource can be locked, the LockType may be set to the type of lock being requested. Currently, the control only supports requesting locks of type "write", although the protocol defines an optional "read" lock. After a successful LockCalendar operation, the control will set the LockType property to the correct value returned in the server's response.
Data Type
String
LockOwner Property (CalDAV Control)
The principle that owns the current resource lock.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.LockOwner[=string]
Default Value
""
Remarks
The principle that owns the current resource lock.
Before the calendar resource can be locked, the Lock LockOwner may be set to the name of a principle or group of principles that will own the lock. If no owner is specified, the server will automatically associate the lock with the requesting principle. After a successful LockCalendar operation, the control will set the LockOwner property to the correct value returned in the server's response.
Data Type
String
LockScope Property (CalDAV Control)
The scope of the current resource lock.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.LockScope[=string]
Default Value
""
Remarks
The scope of the current resource lock.
Before the calendar resource can be locked, the Lock LockScope may be set to the type of scope needed for the lock. Currently the control will only allow two types of scopes to be requested:
"exclusive" | The lock belongs exclusively to the requesting principle. No other principle may modify the locked resource URI. |
"shared" | The locked resource may not be modified by non-trusted principles. Users who have access rights, however, may request a shared lock which they can then use to modify or operate on the resource. |
If no scope is specified, the protocol default scope, "exclusive", will be requested. After a successful LockCalendar operation, the control will set the LockScope property to the correct value returned in the server's response.
Data Type
String
LockTimeout Property (CalDAV Control)
The time to live for the current resource lock.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.LockTimeout[=integer]
Default Value
0
Remarks
The time to live for the current resource lock.
Before the calendar resource can be locked, the Lock LockTimeout may be set to a specific amount of time needed for the locked operation to take place. The timeout is used to determine how long the lock may exist before the server automatically unlocks the resource URI. If LockTimeout of 0 is specified, the server will use a default timeout. After a successful LockCalendar operation, the control will set the Lock LockTimeout property to the correct value returned in the server's response.
Data Type
Integer
LockToken Property (CalDAV Control)
The lock string to be used when submitting operations on a locked resource.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.LockToken[=string]
Default Value
""
Remarks
The lock string to be used when submitting operations on a locked resource.
Before the calendar resource can be locked, the Lock LockToken may be set to the token returned by a previous lock operation. This is useful when renewing a timeout. The server will respond with a new timeout value, which will be stored in LockTimeout. If the lock request is not a lock refresh, LockToken must be empty, and will be parsed out of the server response after a successful LockCalendar operation.
Data Type
String
Organizer Property (CalDAV Control)
Defines the organizer of a calendar event.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.Organizer[=string]
Default Value
""
Remarks
This property is specified within the vEvent, vTodo, and vJournal calendar EventTypes to specify the organizer of a group-scheduled calendar entity. The property is specified within the vFreeBusy EventType to identify the calendar user requesting the free or busy time. When publishing a vFreeBusy EventType, the property is used to specify the calendar that the published busy time came from.
Each email address should be in the mailto URI format (as defined in RFC2368).
For instance:
CalDAV.Organizer = "mailto:jane_doe@example.com";
This property is filled from the response to a GetEvent, and is also used when creating an event to be added using the CreateEvent method. However, when requesting a report using the GetCalendarReport method, the contents of this property will only be valid inside the EventDetails event.
Data Type
String
OtherHeaders Property (CalDAV Control)
Other headers as determined by the user (optional).
Syntax
caldavcontrol.OtherHeaders[=string]
Default Value
""
Remarks
This property can be set to a string of headers to be appended to the HTTP request headers created from other properties like ContentType and From.
The headers must follow the format Header: Value as described in the HTTP specifications. Header lines should be separated by CRLF (Chr$(13) & Chr$(10)) .
Use this property with caution. If this property contains invalid headers, HTTP requests may fail.
This property is useful for extending the functionality of the control beyond what is provided.
For CalDAV, the "If-Match" header is extremely useful. After adding a an event with CreateEvent or retrieving an
event with GetEvent, the ETag property will contain a value indicating the current state of the event. If you
wish to update the event, you may pass this returned ETag in an "If-Match" header. If the event on the server has been
modified since you retrieved it (and the ETag on the server has changed), then the CreateEvent will fail with an HTTP
Protocol Error: "409 Conflict", which indicates there is a conflict between the version you're trying to update and the current
version on the sever. For instance:
calDAV.OtherHeaders = "If-Match: 1900-1900\r\ n";
This property is not available at design time.
Data Type
String
ParsedHeaderCount Property (CalDAV Control)
The number of records in the ParsedHeader arrays.

The ParsedHeaderIndex parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the ParsedHeaderCount property.
This property is read-only and not available at design time.
Data Type
String
ParsedHeaderValue Property (CalDAV Control)
This property contains the header contents.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.ParsedHeaderValue(ParsedHeaderIndex)
Default Value
""
Remarks
This property contains the Header contents.
The ParsedHeaderIndex parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the ParsedHeaderCount property.
This property is read-only and not available at design time.
Data Type
String
Password Property (CalDAV Control)
This property includes a password if authentication is to be used.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.Password[=string]
Default Value
""
Remarks
This property contains a password if authentication is to be used. If AuthScheme is set to HTTP Basic Authentication, the User and Password are Base64 encoded and the result is put in the Authorization configuration setting in the form "Basic [encoded-user-password]".
If AuthScheme is set to HTTP Digest Authentication, the User and Password properties are used to respond to the HTTP Digest Authentication challenge from the server.
If AuthScheme is set to NTLM, NTLM authentication will be attempted. If AuthScheme is set to NTLM and User and Password are empty, the control will attempt to authenticate using the current user's credentials.
Data Type
String
Priority Property (CalDAV Control)
Defines the relative priority for a calendar event.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.Priority[=integer]
Default Value
0
Remarks
This property defines the relative priority of a calendar event. The priority is specified as an integer in the range 0 to 9. A value of 0 specifies an undefined Priority. A value of 1 is the highest Priority. A value of 2 is the second highest Priority. Subsequent numbers specify a decreasing ordinal Priority. A value of 9 is the lowest Priority.
A Calendar User-Agent (CUA) with a three-level Priority scheme of "HIGH", "MEDIUM", and "LOW" is mapped into this property such that a property value in the range of 1 to 4 specifies "HIGH" Priority. A value of 5 is the normal or "MEDIUM" Priority. A value in the range of 6 to 9 is "LOW" Priority.
This property is filled from the response to a GetEvent, and is also used when creating an event to be added using the CreateEvent method. However, when requesting a report using the GetCalendarReport method, the contents of this property will only be valid inside the EventDetails event.
Data Type
Integer
ProxyAuthScheme Property (CalDAV Control)
The type of authorization to perform when connecting to the proxy.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.ProxyAuthScheme[=integer]
Possible Values
authBasic(0), authDigest(1), authProprietary(2), authNone(3), authNtlm(4), authNegotiate(5)
Default Value
0
Remarks
The type of authorization to perform when connecting to the proxy. This is used only when the ProxyUser and ProxyPassword properties are set.
ProxyAuthScheme should be set to authNone (3) when no authentication is expected.
By default, ProxyAuthScheme is authBasic (0), and if the ProxyUser and ProxyPassword properties are set, the control will attempt basic authentication.
If ProxyAuthScheme is set to authDigest (1), digest authentication will be attempted instead.
If ProxyAuthScheme is set to authProprietary (2), then the authorization token will not be generated by the control. Look at the configuration file for the control being used to find more information about manually setting this token.
If ProxyAuthScheme is set to authNtlm (4), NTLM authentication will be used.
For security reasons, setting this property will clear the values of ProxyUser and ProxyPassword.

Data Type
String
RecurrenceDates Property (CalDAV Control)
Individual dates on which the event will recur.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.RecurrenceDates[=string]
Default Value
""
Remarks
Individual dates on which the event will recur.
This property is used if you wish to denote specific, individual dates on which the event recurs. If you have an event that occurs monthly or weekly or on some other time interval, use the RecurrenceRule property instead.
This property is filled after retrieving a calendar event, and is also used to create an event to put on the server. However, when requesting a report the contents of this property will only be valid inside the CalDAV EventDetails event.
Data Type
String
RecurrenceExceptionDates Property (CalDAV Control)
Defines the list of DATE-TIME exceptions to the recurrence set.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.RecurrenceExceptionDates[=string]
Default Value
""
Remarks
Defines the list of DATE-TIME exceptions to the recurrence set.
If the RecurrenceExceptionDates and RecurrenceExceptionRule are specified, they are used in computing the recurrence set. The recurrence set is the complete set of recurrence instances for a calendar component. The recurrence set is generated by considering the initial StartDate property along with the RecurrenceRule, RecurrenceDates, RecurrenceExceptionRule, and RecurrenceExceptionDates properties contained within the recurring event. The StartDate property defines the first instance in the recurrence set. The starting date SHOULD match the pattern of the recurrence rule, if specified. The recurrence set generated with a start date that doesn't match the pattern of the rule is undefined. The final recurrence set is generated by gathering all of the start DATE-TIME values generated by any of the specified RecurrenceRule and RecurrenceDates properties, and then excluding any start DATE-TIME values specified by the RecurrenceExceptionRule or RecurrenceExceptionDates properties. This implies that DATE-TIME values specified by the RecurrenceExceptionRule and RecurrenceExceptionDates properties take precedence over those specified by inclusion properties (i.e., RecurrenceDates and RecurrenceRule). When duplicate instances are generated by the recurrence RecurrenceRule and RecurrenceDates properties, only one recurrence is considered. Duplicate instances are ignored.
The date/time format is "YYYYMMDDThhmmss", where "T" indicates the break between date and time. You may also append a 1-character alpha code for the timezone. For instance, "20100104T123456Z" indicates January 4th, 2010 at 12:34:56 PM UTC.
This property is filled after retrieving a calendar event, and is also used to create an event to put on the server. However, when requesting a report the contents of this property will only be valid inside the CalDAV EventDetails event.
Data Type
String
RecurrenceExceptionRule Property (CalDAV Control)
Defines a rule or repeating pattern for an exception to the recurrence set.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.RecurrenceExceptionRule[=string]
Default Value
""
Remarks
Defines a rule or repeating pattern for an exception to the recurrence set.
If the RecurrenceExceptionDates and RecurrenceExceptionRule are specified, they are used in computing the recurrence set. The recurrence set is the complete set of recurrence instances for a calendar component. The recurrence set is generated by considering the initial StartDate property along with the RecurrenceRule, RecurrenceDates, RecurrenceExceptionRule, and RecurrenceExceptionDates properties contained within the recurring event. The StartDate property defines the first instance in the recurrence set. The starting date SHOULD match the pattern of the recurrence rule, if specified.

The final recurrence set is generated by gathering all of the start DATE-TIME values generated by any of the specified RecurrenceRule and RecurrenceDates properties, and then excluding any start DATE-TIME values specified by the RecurrenceExceptionRule or RecurrenceExceptionDates properties. This implies that DATE-TIME values specified by the RecurrenceExceptionRule and RecurrenceExceptionDates properties take precedence over those specified by inclusion properties (i.e., RecurrenceDates and RecurrenceRule). When duplicate instances are generated by the recurrence RecurrenceRule and RecurrenceDates properties, only one recurrence is considered. Duplicate instances are ignored.
This value type is a structured value consisting of a list of one or more recurrence grammar parts. Each rule part is defined by a NAME=VALUE pair. The rule parts are separated from each other by the SEMICOLON character. The rule parts are not ordered in any particular sequence. Individual rule parts MUST only be specified once.
The table below shows the supported rules and their usage.
FREQ | The FREQ rule part identifies the type of recurrence rule. This rule part MUST be specified in the recurrence rule. Valid values include SECONDLY, to specify repeating events based on an interval of a second or more; MINUTELY, to specify repeating events based on an interval of a minute or more; HOURLY, to specify repeating events based on an interval of an hour or more; DAILY, to specify repeating events based on an interval of a day or more; WEEKLY, to specify repeating events based on an interval of a week or more; MONTHLY, to specify repeating events based on an interval of a month or more; and YEARLY, to specify repeating events based on an interval of a year or more. |
UNTIL | The UNTIL rule part defines a DATE (YYYYMMDD) or DATE-TIME (YYYYMMDDThhmmss) value that bounds the recurrence rule in an inclusive manner. If the value specified by UNTIL is synchronized with the specified recurrence, this DATE or DATE-TIME becomes the last instance of the recurrence. The value of the UNTIL rule part MUST have the same value type as the StartDate property. Furthermore, if the StartDate is specified as a date with local time, then the UNTIL rule part MUST also be specified as a date with local time. If the StartDate property is specified as a date with UTC time or a date with local time and time zone reference, then the UNTIL rule part MUST be specified as a date with UTC time. If not present, and the COUNT rule part is also not present, the "RecurrenceRule" is considered to repeat forever. |
COUNT | The COUNT rule part defines the number of occurrences at which to range-bound the recurrence. The StartDate property value always counts as the first occurrence. |
INTERVAL | Positive integer representing at which intervals the recurrence rule repeats. The default value is "1", meaning every second for a SECONDLY rule, every minute for a MINUTELY rule, every hour for an HOURLY rule, etc. For example, within a DAILY rule, a value of "8" means every eight days. |
BYSECOND | The BYSECOND rule part specifies a COMMA-separated list of seconds within a minute. Valid values are 0 to 60. |
BYMINUTE | The BYMINUTE rule part specifies a COMMA-separated list of minutes within an hour. Valid values are 0 to 59. |
BYHOUR | The BYHOUR rule part specifies a COMMA-separated list of hours of the day. Valid values are 0 to 23. |
BYDAY | The BYDAY rule part specifies a COMMA-separated list of days of the week; SU indicates Sunday; MO indicates Monday; TU indicates Tuesday; WE indicates Wednesday; TH indicates Thursday; FR indicates Friday; and SA indicates Saturday. Each BYDAY value can also be preceded by a positive (+n) or negative (-n) integer. If present, this indicates the nth occurrence of a specific day within the MONTHLY or YEARLY RecurrenceRule. |
BYMONTHDAY | The BYMONTHDAY rule part specifies a COMMA-separated list of days of the month. Valid values are 1 to 31 or -31 to -1. For example, -10 represents the tenth to the last day of the month. The BYMONTHDAY rule part MUST NOT be specified when the FREQ rule part is set to WEEKLY. |
BYYEARDAY | The BYYEARDAY rule part specifies a COMMA-separated list of days of the year. Valid values are 1 to 366 or -366 to -1. For example, -1 represents the last day of the year (December 31st) and -306 represents the 306th to the last day of the year (March 1st). The BYYEARDAY rule part MUST NOT be specified when the FREQ rule part is set to DAILY, WEEKLY, or MONTHLY. |
BYWEEKNO | The BYWEEKNO rule part specifies a COMMA-separated list of ordinals specifying weeks of the year. Valid values are 1 to 53 or -53 to -1. This corresponds to weeks according to week numbering as defined in ISO.8601.2004. A week is defined as a seven day period, starting on the day of the week defined to be the week start (see WKST). Week number one of the calendar year is the first week that contains at least four (4) days in that calendar year. This rule part MUST NOT be used when the FREQ rule part is set to anything other than YEARLY. For example, 3 represents the third week of the year. |
BYMONTH | The BYMONTH rule part specifies a COMMA-separated list of months of the year. Valid values are 1 to 12. |
WKST | Specifies the day on which the workweek starts. Valid values are MO, TU, WE, TH, FR, SA, and SU. This is significant when a WEEKLY RecurrenceRule has an interval greater than 1, and a BYDAY rule part is specified. This is also significant when in a YEARLY RecurrenceRule when a BYWEEKNO rule part is specified. The default value is MO. |
BYSETPOS | The BYSETPOS rule part specifies a COMMA-separated list of values that corresponds to the nth occurrence within the set of recurrence instances specified by the rule. BYSETPOS operates on a set of recurrence instances in one interval of the recurrence rule. For example, in a WEEKLY rule, the interval would be one week A set of recurrence instances starts at the beginning of the interval defined by the FREQ rule part. Valid values are 1 to 366 or -366 to -1. It MUST only be used in conjunction with another BYxxx rule part. For example "the last work day of the month" could be represented as: FREQ=MONTHLY;BYDAY=MO,TU,WE,TH,FR;BYSETPOS=-1. Each BYSETPOS value can include a positive (+n) or negative (-n) integer. If present, this indicates the nth occurrence of the specific occurrence within the set of occurrences specified by the rule. |
Information not contained in the RecurrenceRule necessary to determine the various recurrence instance start time and dates are derived from the StartDate property. For example, "FREQ=YEARLY;BYMONTH=1" doesn't specify a specific day within the month or a time. This information would be the same as what is specified for the StartDate property.
BYxxx rule parts modify the recurrence in some manner. BYxxx rule parts for a period of time that is the same or greater than the frequency generally reduce or limit the number of occurrences of the recurrence generated. For example, "FREQ=DAILY;BYMONTH=1" reduces the number of recurrence instances from all days (if BYMONTH rule part is not present) to all days in January. BYxxx rule parts for a period of time less than the frequency generally increase or expand the number of occurrences of the recurrence. For example, "FREQ=YEARLY;BYMONTH=1,2" increases the number of days within the yearly recurrence set from 1 (if BYMONTH rule part is not present) to 2.
If multiple BYxxx rule parts are specified, then after evaluating the specified FREQ and INTERVAL rule parts, the BYxxx rule parts are applied to the current set of evaluated occurrences in the following order: BYMONTH, BYWEEKNO, BYYEARDAY, BYMONTHDAY, BYDAY, BYHOUR, BYMINUTE, BYSECOND and BYSETPOS; then COUNT and UNTIL are evaluated.

Use of the CalDAV limit-recurrence-set element causes the server to only return overridden recurrence components that overlap the time range specified by ReportFilterRecurStart and ReportFilterRecurEnd or that affect other instances that overlap the time range specified by ReportFilterStartDate and ReportFilterEndDate. The date/time format is "YYYYMMDDThhmmss", where "T" indicates the break between date and time. You may also append a 1-character alpha code for the timezone. For instance, "20100104T123456Z" indicates January 4th, 2010 at 12:34:56 PM UTC.
Note that the ReportFilterRecurEnd property cannot be used when ReportFilterReturnCalendarData is False.
Data Type
String
ReportFilterRecurStart Property (CalDAV Control)
Limits the recurring events returned in the report.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.ReportFilterRecurStart[=string]
Default Value
""
Remarks
Limits the recurring events returned in the report.
Use of the CalDAV limit-recurrence-set element causes the server to only return overridden recurrence components that overlap the time range specified by ReportFilterRecurStart and ReportFilterRecurEnd or that affect other instances that overlap the time range specified by ReportFilterStartDate and ReportFilterEndDate. The date/time format is "YYYYMMDDThhmmss", where "T" indicates the break between date and time. You may also append a 1-character alpha code for the timezone. For instance, "20100104T123456Z" indicates January 4th, 2010 at 12:34:56 PM UTC.
Note that the ReportFilterRecurStart property cannot be used when ReportFilterReturnCalendarData is False.
Data Type
String
ReportFilterReturnCalendarData Property (CalDAV Control)
Controls whether the contents of each calendar event is returned in the report.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.ReportFilterReturnCalendarData[=boolean]
Default Value
True
Remarks
Controls whether the contents of each calendar event is returned in the report.
If ReportFilterReturnCalendarData is True (default), a report will contain the full contents of each event in the calendar. This can be a substantially large amount of data. However if ReportFilterReturnCalendarData is False, the report returned will contain only URIs and ETags of each calendar event. You may compare the URIs against a cached list and retrieve any new URIs individually via the CalDAV.GetCalendarEvent method. If the ETag for a cached URI has changed, it means that the calendar event has changed, and needs to be retrieved.
Note that this filter is not compatible with the ReportFilterRecurStart and ReportFilterRecurEnd properties.
Data Type
Boolean
ReportFilterStartDate Property (CalDAV Control)
Limits the events returned in the report to only those which occur in the time range specified by StartDate and EndDate .
Syntax
caldavcontrol.ReportFilterStartDate[=string]
Default Value
""
Remarks
Limits the events returned in the report to only those which occur in the time range specified by ReportFilterStartDate and ReportFilterEndDate. The date/time format is "YYYYMMDDThhmmss", where "T" indicates the break between date and time. You may also append a 1-character alpha code for the timezone. For instance, "20100104T123456Z" indicates January 4th, 2010 at 12:34:56 PM UTC.
Data Type

Default Value
""
Remarks
Limits the recurring events returned in the report to only those with the specified UID.
Data Type
String
Sequence Property (CalDAV Control)
Defines the revision sequence number of the event within a sequence of revisions.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.Sequence[=integer]
Default Value
0
Remarks
This property defines the revision sequence number of the event within a sequence of revisions. When a calendar component is created its Sequence number is 0. It is incremented by the Organizer's Calendar User Agent (CUA) each time the Organizer makes a significant revision to the calendar event. Therefore, a Sequence number of 2 means the event has been revised twice.
The Organizer includes this property in a calendar event that it sends to an Attendees to specify the current version of the event. Likewise, the Attendees includes this property in an event that it sends to the Organizer to specify the version of the calendar component to which the Attendees is referring.
Note: Recurrence instances of a recurring event may have different sequence numbers.
This property is filled from the response to a GetEvent, and is also used when creating an event to be added using the CreateEvent method. However, when requesting a report using the GetCalendarReport method, the contents of this property will only be valid inside the EventDetails event.

For instance, in the USA Eastern Daylight time before 2007 started on the first Sunday of April. In 2007 Daylight time
was changed to begin on the 2nd Sunday in March. Therefore, the UNTIL option should indicate the LAST time this
rule will be observed. (2am on April 2nd, 2006). Such a time zone declaration would look like this:
CalDAV.time zone.DSTName = "EDT"
CalDAV.time zone.DSTStart = "19870405T020000"
CalDAV.time zone.DSTOffsetFrom = "-500"
CalDAV.time zone.DSTOffsetTo = "-400"

Data Type
String
TimezoneStdRule Property (CalDAV Control)
This property defines the recurrence rule for the onset of this standard time observance.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.TimezoneStdRule[=string]
Default Value
""
Remarks
This property defines the recurrence rule for the onset of this standard time observance. Some specific requirements for the usage of TimezoneDSTRule for this purpose include:
FREQ | Frequency of the time zone onset. (Almost always "YEARLY") |
BYMONTH | The month of the time zone onset. |
BYDAY | The day of the time zone onset. Formatted as a number and a two-character day. "BYDAY=3SU" means the 3rd Sunday of the month. "BYDAY=-1SU" is the last Sunday of the month. |
UNTIL | If the observance is known to have an effective end date, the "UNTIL" recurrence rule parameter MUST be used to specify the last valid onset of this observance (i.e., the UNTIL DATE-TIME will be equal to the last instance generated by the recurrence pattern). It MUST be specified in UTC time. |
For instance, in the USA Eastern Standard time before 2007 started on the last Sunday of October. In 2007 Standard time
was changed to begin on the 1st Sunday in November. Therefore, the UNTIL option should indicate the LAST time this
rule will be observed. (2am on October 29th, 2006). Such a time zone declaration would look like this:
CalDAV.time zone.StdName = "EST"
CalDAV.time zone.StdStart = "19671029T020000"
CalDAV.time zone.StdOffsetFrom = "-400"
CalDAV.time zone.StdOffsetTo = "-500"
CalDAV.time zone.StdRule = "FREQ=YEARLY;BYMONTH=10;BYDAY=-1SU;UNTIL=20061029T060000Z"
Data Type
String
TimezoneStdStart Property (CalDAV Control)
The effective onset date and local time for the standard-time time zone definition.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.TimezoneStdStart[=string]
Default Value
""
Remarks
The effective onset date and local time for the standard-time time zone definition. The date and time MUST be specified as a date with a local time value. in the format "YYYYMMDDThhmmss", where "T" indicates the break between date and time.
TimezoneStdStart, TimezoneStdOffsetFrom, and TimezoneStdOffsetTo are all required to specify the standard-time time zone.

Data Type
String
TimezoneId Property (CalDAV Control)
This property specifies a text value that uniquely identifies this CalTimezone calendar control.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.TimezoneId[=string]
Default Value
""
Remarks
This property specifies a text value that uniquely identifies this CalTimezone calendar component.
Note: This document does not define a naming convention for time zone identifiers. Implementers may want to use the naming conventions defined in existing time zone specifications such as the public-domain TZ database [TZDB].
This property is required. If it is not present, no time zone information will be generated inside the MakeCalendar request.
Data Type
String
TimezoneURL Property (CalDAV Control)
Optionally points to a published time zone definition.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.TimezoneURL[=string]
Default Value
""
Remarks
Optionally points to a published time zone definition. If set, this property should refer to a resource that is accessible by anyone who might need to interpret the object. This should not normally be a "file" URL or other URL that is not widely accessible.
Data Type
String
Transparency Property (CalDAV Control)
Defines whether or not an event is transparent to busy time searches.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.Transparency[=string]
Default Value
""
Remarks
This property defines whether or not an event is transparent to busy time searches. Time Transparency is the characteristic of an event that determines whether it appears to consume time on a calendar. Events that consume actual time for the individual or resource associated with the calendar SHOULD be recorded as "OPAQUE", allowing them to be detected by free/busy time searches. Other events, which do not take up the individual's (or resource's) time SHOULD be recorded as "TRANSPARENT", making them invisible to free/ busy time searches.
Custom transparency values may or may not be supported by your calendar implementation, but all implementations will support the "OPAQUE" and "TRANSPARENT" values.
This property is filled from the response to a GetEvent, and is also used when creating an event to be added using the CreateEvent method. However, when requesting a report using the GetCalendarReport method, the contents of this property will only be valid inside the EventDetails event.
Data Type
String
UID Property (CalDAV Control)
A persistent, globally unique identifier for the calendar event.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.UID[=string]
Default Value
""
Remarks
This property contains a persistent, globally unique identifier. The generator of the identifier MUST guarantee that the identifier is unique. There are several algorithms that can be used to accomplish this. A good method to assure uniqueness is to put the domain name or a domain literal IP address of the host on which the identifier was created on the right-hand side of an "@", and on the left-hand side, put a combination of the current calendar date and time of day (i.e., formatted in as a date/time value) along with some other currently unique (perhaps sequential) identifier available on the system (for example, a process id number). Using a date/time value on the left-hand side and a domain name or domain literal on the right-hand side makes it possible to guarantee uniqueness since no two hosts should be using the same domain name or IP address at the same time. Though other algorithms will work, it is recommended that the right-hand side contain some domain identifier (either of the host itself or otherwise) such that the generator of the message identifier can guarantee the uniqueness of the left-hand side within the scope of that domain.
NOTE: Some CalDAV servers (Yahoo for example) require that the UID and the filename portion of the Resource URI match. For example, if the UID is "hello_world" then the ResourceURI parameter of the CreateEvent should be "https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/user_name/Calendar/My_Calendar/hello_world.ics". If the UID and filename portion of the URI do not match, the Yahoo CalDAV server will return a "302 Found" response indicating that the requested resource resides under a different URI. (Meaning the event was not added to the calendar)
This property is filled from the response to a GetEvent, and is also used when creating an event to be added using the CreateEvent method. However, when requesting a report using the GetCalendarReport method, the contents of this property will only be valid inside the EventDetails event.
Data Type
String
URL Property (CalDAV Control)
Location of the event resource on the CalDAV server.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.URL
Default Value
""
Remarks
This property is read-only, and will be filled with the location of the event resource for each event returned. This will only be returned in response to a GetCalendarReport transaction.
This property is filled from the response to a GetEvent, and is also used when creating an event to be added using the CreateEvent method. However, when requesting a report using the GetCalendarReport method, the contents of this property will only be valid inside the EventDetails event.
This property is read-only.
Data Type
String
User Property (CalDAV Control)
This property includes a user name if authentication is to be used.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.User[=string]
Default Value
""
Remarks
This property contains a user name if authentication is to be used. If AuthScheme is set to HTTP Basic Authentication, The User and Password are Base64 encoded, and the result is put in the Authorization property in the form "Basic [encoded-user-password]".
If AuthScheme is set to HTTP Digest Authentication, the User and Password properties are used to respond to the HTTP Digest Authentication challenge from the server.
If AuthScheme is set to NTLM, NTLM authentication will be attempted. If AuthScheme is set to NTLM, and User and Password are empty, the control will attempt to authenticate using the current user's credentials.
Data Type
String
AddCookie Method (CalDAV Control)
Adds a cookie and the corresponding value to the outgoing request headers.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.AddCookie CookieName, CookieValue
Remarks
This method adds a cookie and the corresponding value to the outgoing request headers. Please refer to the Cookies property for more information on cookies and how they are managed.
AddCustomProperty Method (CalDAV Control)
Adds a form variable and the corresponding value.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.AddCustomProperty VarName, VarValue
Remarks
This property adds a form variable and the corresponding value. For information on form variables and how they are managed, please refer to the CustomProperties properties.
Example using the AddCustomProperty method:
CalDAV.Reset()
CalDAV.AddCustomProperty("propname1", "propvalue1")
CalDAV.AddCustomProperty("propname2", "propvalue2")
Example using Custom Property arrays:
CalDAV.Reset()
CalDAV.CustomPropertyCount = 2
CalDAV.CustomPropertyName (0) = "propname1"
CalDAV.CustomPropertyValue(0) = "propvalue1"
CalDAV.CustomPropertyName (1) = "propname2"
CalDAV.CustomPropertyValue(1) = "propvalue2"
Config Method (CalDAV Control)
Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.Config ConfigurationString
Remarks
Config is a generic method available in every control. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the control.
These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the control, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.
To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).
To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.
CopyEvent Method (CalDAV Control)
Copy events to a new location.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.CopyEvent SourceResourceURI, DestinationResourceURI
Remarks
The CopyEvent method will copy the resource indicated by SourceResourceURI to a new location under the resource indicated by DestinationResourceURI.
This method is associated with the Depth property. If Depth is set to "0", the control will copy only SourceResourceURI. If Depth is set to "infinity", the control will copy SourceResourceURI and its entire subtree to the relative locations.
If the user has acquired a LockCalendar of infinite depth on either DestinationResourceURI or any collection it is under, SourceResourceURI will be added to that lock.
Note that neither Yahoo nor Google CalDAV servers support locking, copying, or moving calendar resources.
There is no standard format for resource URIs. Google for instance, uses "https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/" plus your
email address to access the default calendar. So "https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/username@gmail.com/"
is the base URI for the default calendar. If you have multiple calendars, replace the email address portion above with the
Id of the calendar, plus "@group.calendar.google.com/". For instance:
"https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/ev3nkr4ua83jej7q32oumn5eeo@group.calendar.google.com/".
For Google, calendar events are stored in the "/events/" path. To retrieve a report on a calendar, you'd add "/events/" to
one of the above paths. For example:
CalDAV.GetCalendarReport("https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/username@gmail.com/events/");
Leaving the "/events/" out of the URI will result in an HTTP protocol error: 405 Method not allowed.
To add or retrieve an event, add the UID of the event you're creating or retrieving plus ".ics" to the path.
Note that when putting an event with the CreateEvent method, if the resourceURI and the UID do not match
Google will create the event using the UID stored in the UID property. The actual location of will be newly
added event will be returned in a "Location" header. This is the resource URI you must use to retrieve the event
with GetEvent. For example:
CalDAV.UID = "1234567890";
CalDAV.CreateEvent("https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/username@gmail.com/events/1234567890.ics");
Yahoo uses a different format for CalDAV access. Yahoo's ResourceURIs always start with "https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/"
plus your user name, plus "/Calendar/" plus the name of your calendar. For
instance: "https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Your_Name" for the default calendar. (Yahoo uses your name
to create the default calendar). When using the CreateCalendar event to create a new calendar, replace "Your_Name" in the
URI with the desired name of your new calendar. Event resources are located directly under the "/Calendar/Calendar_Name/" path.
Like Google, the UID and filename portion of the resource URI must match, but Yahoo will actually return an HTTP protocol error
if they differ. The examples below show a few possible transactions:
CalDAV.User = "username";
CalDAV.Password = "password";
CalDAV.CreateCalendar("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/", "My Hockey Calendar", "My Hockey Calendar");
CalDAV.StartDate = "20100401T040000";
CalDAV.EndDate = "20100401T060000";
CalDAV.UID = "qwerty1234567";
CalDAV.Summary = "First Practice";
CalDAV.Location = "Rink on 1st and main";
CalDAV.EventType = vEvent;
CalDAV.CreateEvent("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/qwerty1234567.ics");
CalDAV.GetCalendarReport("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/");
CreateCalendar Method (CalDAV Control)
Creates a new calendar collection resource.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.CreateCalendar ResourceURI, DisplayName, Description
Remarks
The CreateCalendar method creates a new calendar collection resource. A server MAY restrict calendar collection creation to particular collections.
Creating calendar collections is not supported by all CalDAV servers. Some calendar stores only support one calendar per user (or principal), and those are typically pre-created for each account.
The DisplayName and Description parameters should be set to a human readable display name and description of the calendar. The Timezone property specifies the default timezone of the calendar.
To successfully create a calendar, the ResourceURI cannot already exist, and must point to a valid location where a new calendar can be created. The DAV:bind privilege MUST be granted to the current user on the parent collection of the specified ResourceURI.
The following example shows how to create a simple new calendar collection resource with Yahoo Calendar.
calDAV.CreateCalendar("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/userid/Calendar/TestCal1", "My Display Name", "My Calendar Description);
Note that Google does not support creating a new calendar through CalDAV. It must be created through the Google calendar web interface.
There is no standard format for resource URIs. Google for instance, uses "https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/" plus your
email address to access the default calendar. So "https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/username@gmail.com/"
is the base URI for the default calendar. If you have multiple calendars, replace the email address portion above with the
Id of the calendar, plus "@group.calendar.google.com/". For instance:
"https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/ev3nkr4ua83jej7q32oumn5eeo@group.calendar.google.com/".
For Google, calendar events are stored in the "/events/" path. To retrieve a report on a calendar, you'd add "/events/" to
one of the above paths. For example:
CalDAV.GetCalendarReport("https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/username@gmail.com/events/");
Leaving the "/events/" out of the URI will result in an HTTP protocol error: 405 Method not allowed.
To add or retrieve an event, add the UID of the event you're creating or retrieving plus ".ics" to the path.
Note that when putting an event with the CreateEvent method, if the resourceURI and the UID do not match
Google will create the event using the UID stored in the UID property. The actual location of will be newly
added event will be returned in a "Location" header. This is the resource URI you must use to retrieve the event
with GetEvent. For example:
CalDAV.UID = "1234567890";
CalDAV.CreateEvent("https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/username@gmail.com/events/1234567890.ics");
Yahoo uses a different format for CalDAV access. Yahoo's ResourceURIs always start with "https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/"
plus your user name, plus "/Calendar/" plus the name of your calendar. For
instance: "https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Your_Name" for the default calendar. (Yahoo uses your name
to create the default calendar). When using the CreateCalendar event to create a new calendar, replace "Your_Name" in the
URI with the desired name of your new calendar. Event resources are located directly under the "/Calendar/Calendar_Name/" path.
Like Google, the UID and filename portion of the resource URI must match, but Yahoo will actually return an HTTP protocol error
if they differ. The examples below show a few possible transactions:
CalDAV.User = "username";
CalDAV.Password = "password";
CalDAV.CreateCalendar("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/", "My Hockey Calendar", "My Hockey Calendar");
CalDAV.StartDate = "20100401T040000";
CalDAV.EndDate = "20100401T060000";
CalDAV.UID = "qwerty1234567";
CalDAV.Summary = "First Practice";
CalDAV.Location = "Rink on 1st and main";
CalDAV.EventType = vEvent;
CalDAV.CreateEvent("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/qwerty1234567.ics");
CalDAV.GetCalendarReport("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/");
CreateEvent Method (CalDAV Control)
Adds a calendar resource at the specified ResourceURI using the CalDAV PUT method.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.CreateEvent ResourceURI
Remarks
This method adds a new event to the calendar collection at the specified ResourceURI. The ResourceURI must be a fully qualified URL to the location on the CalDAV server to which this event will be saved. If the ResourceURI already exists, the event at that URI will be overwritten.
NOTE: Some CalDAV servers (Yahoo for example) require that the UID and the filename portion of the URI match. For example, if the UID is "hello_world" then the ResourceURI parameter of the CreateEvent should be "https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/user_name/Calendar/My_Calendar/hello_world.ics". If the UID and filename portion of the URI do not match, the Yahoo CalDAV server will return a "302 Found" response indicating that the requested resource resides under a different URI. (Meaning the event was not added to the calendar)
The following properties are used when creating a request with CreateEvent or ExportICS, and will be filled after calling GetEvent or ImportICS. These will also be available from inside the EventDetails event, which is fired for each event received from the CalDAV server in response to a GetCalendarReport.

caldavcontrol.DeleteCalendar ResourceURI
Remarks
This method deletes a calendar collection resource specified by ResourceURI. To successfully delete a calendar, the ResourceURI should already exist, and must point to a valid location where a calendar can be deleted. The DAV:bind privilege MUST be granted to the current user on the parent collection of the specified ResourceURI.
The following example shows how to delete a calendar collection resource:
calDAV.DeleteCalendar("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/userid/Calendar/TestCal1");
In a NextCloud server, if all calendars are deleted, a new Personal calendar is automatically created.
Note that Google does not support deleting a calendar through CalDAV. It must be created through the Google calendar web interface.
There is no standard format for resource URIs. Google for instance, uses "https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/" plus your
email address to access the default calendar. So "https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/username@gmail.com/"
is the base URI for the default calendar. If you have multiple calendars, replace the email address portion above with the
Id of the calendar, plus "@group.calendar.google.com/". For instance:
"https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/ev3nkr4ua83jej7q32oumn5eeo@group.calendar.google.com/".
For Google, calendar events are stored in the "/events/" path. To retrieve a report on a calendar, you'd add "/events/" to
one of the above paths. For example:
CalDAV.GetCalendarReport("https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/username@gmail.com/events/");
Leaving the "/events/" out of the URI will result in an HTTP protocol error: 405 Method not allowed.
To add or retrieve an event, add the UID of the event you're creating or retrieving plus ".ics" to the path.
Note that when putting an event with the CreateEvent method, if the resourceURI and the UID do not match
Google will create the event using the UID stored in the UID property. The actual location of will be newly
added event will be returned in a "Location" header. This is the resource URI you must use to retrieve the event
with GetEvent. For example:
CalDAV.UID = "1234567890";
CalDAV.CreateEvent("https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/username@gmail.com/events/1234567890.ics");
Yahoo uses a different format for CalDAV access. Yahoo's ResourceURIs always start with "https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/"
plus your user name, plus "/Calendar/" plus the name of your calendar. For
instance: "https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Your_Name" for the default calendar. (Yahoo uses your name
to create the default calendar). When using the CreateCalendar event to create a new calendar, replace "Your_Name" in the
URI with the desired name of your new calendar. Event resources are located directly under the "/Calendar/Calendar_Name/" path.
Like Google, the UID and filename portion of the resource URI must match, but Yahoo will actually return an HTTP protocol error
if they differ. The examples below show a few possible transactions:
CalDAV.User = "username";
CalDAV.Password = "password";
CalDAV.CreateCalendar("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/", "My Hockey Calendar", "My Hockey Calendar");
CalDAV.StartDate = "20100401T040000";
CalDAV.EndDate = "20100401T060000";
CalDAV.UID = "qwerty1234567";
CalDAV.Summary = "First Practice";
CalDAV.Location = "Rink on 1st and main";
CalDAV.EventType = vEvent;
CalDAV.CreateEvent("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/qwerty1234567.ics");
CalDAV.GetCalendarReport("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/");
DeleteEvent Method (CalDAV Control)
Delete a resource or collection.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.DeleteEvent ResourceURI
Remarks
This method behaves independently of the Depth property. It is used to delete the resource or collection specified by ResourceURI. If ResourceURI denotes a non-collection resource, it is first removed from any collection in which it is contained, it is then removed from the server. If ResourceURI denotes a collection, the server behaves as if the command were issued with an infinite depth (i.e., all internal member URIs denoting single resources or collections are deleted).
There is no standard format for resource URIs. Google for instance, uses "https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/" plus your
email address to access the default calendar. So "https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/username@gmail.com/"
is the base URI for the default calendar. If you have multiple calendars, replace the email address portion above with the
Id of the calendar, plus "@group.calendar.google.com/". For instance:
"https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/ev3nkr4ua83jej7q32oumn5eeo@group.calendar.google.com/".
For Google, calendar events are stored in the "/events/" path. To retrieve a report on a calendar, you'd add "/events/" to
one of the above paths. For example:
CalDAV.GetCalendarReport("https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/username@gmail.com/events/");
Leaving the "/events/" out of the URI will result in an HTTP protocol error: 405 Method not allowed.
To add or retrieve an event, add the UID of the event you're creating or retrieving plus ".ics" to the path.
Note that when putting an event with the CreateEvent method, if the resourceURI and the UID do not match
Google will create the event using the UID stored in the UID property. The actual location of will be newly
added event will be returned in a "Location" header. This is the resource URI you must use to retrieve the event
with GetEvent. For example:
CalDAV.UID = "1234567890";
CalDAV.CreateEvent("https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/username@gmail.com/events/1234567890.ics");
Yahoo uses a different format for CalDAV access. Yahoo's ResourceURIs always start with "https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/"
plus your user name, plus "/Calendar/" plus the name of your calendar. For
instance: "https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Your_Name" for the default calendar. (Yahoo uses your name
to create the default calendar). When using the CreateCalendar event to create a new calendar, replace "Your_Name" in the
URI with the desired name of your new calendar. Event resources are located directly under the "/Calendar/Calendar_Name/" path.
Like Google, the UID and filename portion of the resource URI must match, but Yahoo will actually return an HTTP protocol error

CalDAV.User = "username";
CalDAV.Password = "password";
CalDAV.CreateCalendar("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/", "My Hockey Calendar", "My Hockey Calendar");
CalDAV.StartDate = "20100401T040000";
CalDAV.EndDate = "20100401T060000";
CalDAV.UID = "qwerty1234567";
CalDAV.Summary = "First Practice";
CalDAV.Location = "Rink on 1st and main";
CalDAV.EventType = vEvent;
CalDAV.CreateEvent("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/qwerty1234567.ics");
CalDAV.GetCalendarReport("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/");
DoEvents Method (CalDAV Control)
This method processes events from the internal message queue.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.DoEvents
Remarks
When DoEvents is called, the control processes any available events. If no events are available, it waits for a preset period of time, and then returns.
ExportICS Method (CalDAV Control)
Generates an event from the properties in the iCal (.ICS) format.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.ExportICS
Remarks
The ExportICS method is used to create a calendar object and export it in the iCal/ICS format, which can then be saved to disk and imported using any calendar software, even those that do not support CalDAV. The ExportICS method will create the exact same data as the CreateEvent method sends when adding or updating an event to a calendar.
Note that if ExportICS is called immediately after a successful GetEvent, the unmodified calendar returned from the CalDAV server will be returned. However if any properties are changed between the GetEvent and ExportICS calls, the control will generate and return a brand new event.
The following properties are used when creating a request with CreateEvent or ExportICS, and will be filled after calling GetEvent or ImportICS. These will also be available from inside the EventDetails event, which is fired for each event received from the CalDAV server in response to a GetCalendarReport.

GetCalendarOptions Method (CalDAV Control)
Retrieves options for the ResourceURI to determines whether it supports calendar access.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.GetCalendarOptions ResourceURI
Remarks
This method sends an OPTIONS HTTP request to the indicated ResourceURI. The server will respond with an 200 OK HTTP message, and the supported options will fire one-by-one in the Header event. If a server supports CalDAV calendar access, the "DAV" header will contain the string "calendar-access". The allowable CalDAV and WebDAV methods may also be returned in the "Allow" header.
For instance, the following headers may be returned from a call to the GetCalendarOptions method:
Field | Value |
Allow | OPTIONS, GET, HEAD, POST, PUT, DELETE, TRACE, COPY, MOVE |
Allow | PROPFIND, PROPPATCH, LOCK, UNLOCK, REPORT, ACL |
DAV | 1, 2, access-control, calendar-access |
Date | Sat, 11 Nov 2006 09:32:12 GMT |
Content-Length | 0 |

To add or retrieve an event, add the UID of the event you're creating or retrieving plus ".ics" to the path.
Note that when putting an event with the CreateEvent method, if the resourceURI and the UID do not match
Google will create the event using the UID stored in the UID property. The actual location of will be newly
added event will be returned in a "Location" header. This is the resource URI you must use to retrieve the event
with GetEvent. For example:
CalDAV.UID = "1234567890";
CalDAV.CreateEvent("https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/username@gmail.com/events/1234567890.ics");
Yahoo uses a different format for CalDAV access. Yahoo's ResourceURIs always start with "https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/"
plus your user name, plus "/Calendar/" plus the name of your calendar. For
instance: "https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Your_Name" for the default calendar. (Yahoo uses your name
to create the default calendar). When using the CreateCalendar event to create a new calendar, replace "Your_Name" in the
URI with the desired name of your new calendar. Event resources are located directly under the "/Calendar/Calendar_Name/" path.
Like Google, the UID and filename portion of the resource URI must match, but Yahoo will actually return an HTTP protocol error

CalDAV.UID = "qwerty1234567";
CalDAV.Summary = "First Practice";
CalDAV.Location = "Rink on 1st and main";
CalDAV.EventType = vEvent;
CalDAV.CreateEvent("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/qwerty1234567.ics");
CalDAV.GetCalendarReport("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/");
GetCalendarReport Method (CalDAV Control)
Generates a report on the indicated calendar collection resource.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.GetCalendarReport ResourceURI
Remarks
This method is used to send a calendar-query request to the calendar located at the specified ResourceURI. The ReportFilter can be used to filter out and return only the calendar events you wish to receive. The response to a calendar-query report will be parsed by the control, and information about the individual events contained within shall be fired in the EventDetails event.
The following properties are used when creating a request with CreateEvent or ExportICS, and will be filled after calling GetEvent or ImportICS. These will also be available from inside the EventDetails event, which is fired for each event received from the CalDAV server in response to a GetCalendarReport.

CalDAV.ReportFilterEndDate = "20091231T230000Z"
CalDAV.GetCalendarReport "https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/default_calendar/"
The following code inside the EventDetails event will print the start and end time as well as the summary for each event:
Private Sub CalDAV_EventDetails(ResourceURI As String, ResponseStatus As String, ETag As String, CalendarData As String, Summary As String)
Debug.Print Summary & ": " & CalDAV.StartDate & " to " & CalDAV.EndDate
End Sub
The output from the above code will look something like this:

CalDAV.GetCalendarReport("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/");
GetEvent Method (CalDAV Control)
Retrieves a single event from the CalDAV server.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.GetEvent ResourceURI
Remarks
This method retrieves a single event from a CalDAV server. The ResourceURI points to the exact location of the iCal (*.ics) file you wish to retrieve. (If you do not know the URL of the event you need, you can use the GetCalendarReport method along with the ReportFilter property to find it.)
The event will be retrieved using the WebDAV GET method. The full response is delivered through the Transfer event and the HTTP response headers through the Header event. After an event is retrieved with this method, the control parses the calendar data into properties. You may then edit these properties and use CreateEvent to update the calendar event resource.
The following properties are used when creating a request with CreateEvent or ExportICS, and will be filled after calling GetEvent or ImportICS. These will also be available from inside the EventDetails event, which is fired for each event received from the CalDAV server in response to a GetCalendarReport.

CalDAV.GetCalendarReport("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/");
GetFreeBusyReport Method (CalDAV Control)
Generates a report as to when the calendar owner is free and/or busy.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.GetFreeBusyReport ResourceURI
Remarks
This method sends a free-busy-query request to the calendar at the specified ResourceURI. . The CalDAV server will return a list of FREEBUSY elements, which will be fired in the FreeBusy event and also stored in the FreeBusy collection. Each FREEBUSY element contains a type (BUSY, FREE, BUSY-TENTATIVE, etc.) and a date range.
Note that the ReportFilterStartDate property is required for a Free/Busy report. The ReportFilterEndDate property is optional. These are the only two ReportFilters used by the GetFreeBusyReport request, all other filters will be ignored.
Note that Google Calendar does not currently support Free/Busy reporting.
There is no standard format for resource URIs. Google for instance, uses "https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/" plus your
email address to access the default calendar. So "https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/username@gmail.com/"
is the base URI for the default calendar. If you have multiple calendars, replace the email address portion above with the
Id of the calendar, plus "@group.calendar.google.com/". For instance:
"https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/ev3nkr4ua83jej7q32oumn5eeo@group.calendar.google.com/".
For Google, calendar events are stored in the "/events/" path. To retrieve a report on a calendar, you'd add "/events/" to
one of the above paths. For example:
CalDAV.GetCalendarReport("https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/username@gmail.com/events/");
Leaving the "/events/" out of the URI will result in an HTTP protocol error: 405 Method not allowed.
To add or retrieve an event, add the UID of the event you're creating or retrieving plus ".ics" to the path.
Note that when putting an event with the CreateEvent method, if the resourceURI and the UID do not match
Google will create the event using the UID stored in the UID property. The actual location of will be newly

CalDAV.UID = "1234567890";
CalDAV.CreateEvent("https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/username@gmail.com/events/1234567890.ics");
Yahoo uses a different format for CalDAV access. Yahoo's ResourceURIs always start with "https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/"
plus your user name, plus "/Calendar/" plus the name of your calendar. For
instance: "https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Your_Name" for the default calendar. (Yahoo uses your name
to create the default calendar). When using the CreateCalendar event to create a new calendar, replace "Your_Name" in the
URI with the desired name of your new calendar. Event resources are located directly under the "/Calendar/Calendar_Name/" path.
Like Google, the UID and filename portion of the resource URI must match, but Yahoo will actually return an HTTP protocol error
if they differ. The examples below show a few possible transactions:
CalDAV.User = "username";
CalDAV.Password = "password";
CalDAV.CreateCalendar("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/", "My Hockey Calendar", "My Hockey Calendar");
CalDAV.StartDate = "20100401T040000";
CalDAV.EndDate = "20100401T060000";
CalDAV.UID = "qwerty1234567";
CalDAV.Summary = "First Practice";
CalDAV.Location = "Rink on 1st and main";
CalDAV.EventType = vEvent;
CalDAV.CreateEvent("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/qwerty1234567.ics");
CalDAV.GetCalendarReport("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/");
ImportICS Method (CalDAV Control)
Imports calendar data (contained in an ICS file) into the control's property list.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.ImportICS CalendarData
Remarks
This method is used to load calendar data from an external source into the control. You may then submit this data with a call to CreateEvent. If you edit any of the control properties between importing and calling CreateEvent, the control will re-generate the PUT request itself. If no properties are changed, the imported data will be submitted unaltered when calling CreateEvent.
As the calendar data is imported, the control will scan CalendarData for any calendar events. Each time a calendar event is discovered, the EventDetails event will fire, and the calendar event properties will be updated.
After ImportICS completes, the calendar event properties will be set to the most recent calendar event found in CalendarData.
Interrupt Method (CalDAV Control)
This method interrupts the current method.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.Interrupt
Remarks
If there is no method in progress, Interrupt simply returns, doing nothing.
ListCalendars Method (CalDAV Control)
Lists all calendars that the current user can access.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.ListCalendars baseURL
Remarks
This method lists all calendars the user can access.
The BaseURL parameter must be set to the base CalDAV URL for the server. For instance in the case of Google this is https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2. Other servers may use a format like https://mydavserver/.well-known/caldav/.
When this method is called the control will automatically perform a series of requests to obtain the calendar list. First, the control will send a PROPFIND request to the specified base URL to obtain the current-user-principle. Once the current user has been found, the control will then use that information to send a second PROPFIND request to get calendar-home-set for the user. The calendar-home-set is then be used by the control to make a final PROPFIND request to get the list of calendars for the user.
Once this method returns, the control will populate the Calendar* properties. For example:
calDAV.ListCalendars("https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2");
for (int i = 0; i < calDAV.Calendars.Count; i++) {
string url = calDAV.Calendars[i].URL;
string displayName = calDAV.Calendars[i].DisplayName;
...
}
LockCalendar Method (CalDAV Control)
Obtain a lock for a specified calendar resource.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.LockCalendar ResourceURI
Remarks
This method will request a new lock to be placed on ResourceURI in the user's name so that only the user can operate on it. The method is linked to a number of properties that it uses to generate the lock request:
LockOwner | The principle that will own the lock. |
LockScope | The scope of the lock. The control only currently supports locks of scope "exclusive" and "shared". |
LockTimeout | The amount of time that the lock is allowed to exist before ResourceURI is automatically unlocked by the server. |
LockToken | The lock itself. If the user sets this before making the request, the timeout on the existing lock will be refreshed (reset to 0). Otherwise, a new set of lock token will be returned. |
LockType | The type of lock. The control only currently supports of type "write". |
This method is associated with the Depth property. If Depth is set to "0", the control will lock only ResourceURI and its properties. If Depth is set to "infinity", the control will lock ResourceURI and its entire subtree.
If MoveEvent or CopyEvent are used to place a resource or collection in a location under a resource locked with "infinity", the new resource or collection will be added to the lock. Any lock on a collection will prevent non-lock owners from adding resources to that collection.
Note that while the Yahoo CalDAV server does accept LockCalendar and UnLockCalendar requests, the server does not respect resource locks (either on events or on the entire calendar). The Google CalDAV sever does not support either of these requests, and will respond with an HTTP protocol error: 405 Method Not Allowed. Also, neither Yahoo nor Google CalDAV servers support copying or moving calendar resources.
MoveEvent Method (CalDAV Control)
Moves one calendar resource to a new location.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.MoveEvent SourceResourceURI, DestinationResourceURI
Remarks
This method will move the resource indicated by SourceResourceURI to a new location under the resource indicated by DestinationResourceURI.
This method is associated with the Depth property. If Depth is set to "0", the control will move only SourceResourceURI. If Depth is set to "infinity", the control will move SourceResourceURI and its entire subtree to locations relative to it.
If the user has acquired a lock of infinite depth (via LockCalendar) on either DestinationResourceURI or any collection it is under, SourceResourceURI will be added to that lock.
Note that neither Yahoo nor Google CalDAV servers support locking, copying, or moving calendar resources.
There is no standard format for resource URIs. Google for instance, uses "https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/" plus your
email address to access the default calendar. So "https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/username@gmail.com/"
is the base URI for the default calendar. If you have multiple calendars, replace the email address portion above with the
Id of the calendar, plus "@group.calendar.google.com/". For instance:
"https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/ev3nkr4ua83jej7q32oumn5eeo@group.calendar.google.com/".
For Google, calendar events are stored in the "/events/" path. To retrieve a report on a calendar, you'd add "/events/" to
one of the above paths. For example:
CalDAV.GetCalendarReport("https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/username@gmail.com/events/");
Leaving the "/events/" out of the URI will result in an HTTP protocol error: 405 Method not allowed.
To add or retrieve an event, add the UID of the event you're creating or retrieving plus ".ics" to the path.
Note that when putting an event with the CreateEvent method, if the resourceURI and the UID do not match
Google will create the event using the UID stored in the UID property. The actual location of will be newly
added event will be returned in a "Location" header. This is the resource URI you must use to retrieve the event
with GetEvent. For example:
CalDAV.UID = "1234567890";
CalDAV.CreateEvent("https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/username@gmail.com/events/1234567890.ics");
Yahoo uses a different format for CalDAV access. Yahoo's ResourceURIs always start with "https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/"
plus your user name, plus "/Calendar/" plus the name of your calendar. For
instance: "https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Your_Name" for the default calendar. (Yahoo uses your name
to create the default calendar). When using the CreateCalendar event to create a new calendar, replace "Your_Name" in the
URI with the desired name of your new calendar. Event resources are located directly under the "/Calendar/Calendar_Name/" path.
Like Google, the UID and filename portion of the resource URI must match, but Yahoo will actually return an HTTP protocol error
if they differ. The examples below show a few possible transactions:
CalDAV.User = "username";
CalDAV.Password = "password";
CalDAV.CreateCalendar("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/", "My Hockey Calendar", "My Hockey Calendar");
CalDAV.StartDate = "20100401T040000";
CalDAV.EndDate = "20100401T060000";
CalDAV.UID = "qwerty1234567";
CalDAV.Summary = "First Practice";
CalDAV.Location = "Rink on 1st and main";
CalDAV.EventType = vEvent;
CalDAV.CreateEvent("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/qwerty1234567.ics");
CalDAV.GetCalendarReport("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/");
Reset Method (CalDAV Control)
Reset the control.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.Reset
Remarks
This method will reset the control's properties to their default values.
SendCustomRequest Method (CalDAV Control)
Sends a request to the CalDAV server to do CRUD operations.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.SendCustomRequest HttpMethod, Url, RequestBody
Remarks
Allows users to send personalized HTTP commands to a CalDAV server. It requires three string parameters: HTTPMethod indicates the desired action (e.g., "GET," "POST"), url specifies the target resource's URL, and RequestBody includes data sent with the request.
Here is an example of how to create a calendar event:
string httpMethod = "MKCALENDAR";
string url = "https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/user/Calendar/CreateCalendarTest";
string requestBody = "BEGIN:VCALENDAR
PRODID:/n software IPWorks CalDAV Component - www.nsoftware.com
VERSION:2.0
BEGIN:VEVENT
UID: uidValue
DTSTAMP: dtstampValue
DTSTART: dtstartValue
DTEND: dtendValue
PRIORITY:0
SEQUENCE:0
SUMMARY:TEST
END:VEVENT
END:VCALENDAR"
calDAV.SendCustomRequest(httpMethod, url, requestBody);
UnLockCalendar Method (CalDAV Control)
Unlocks a calendar resource.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.UnLockCalendar ResourceURI
Remarks
This method unlocks a calendar resource. Before calling UnLockCalendar on a particular calendar resource, the LockToken property must be set to the lock token for ResourceURI. The method will remove the lock, allowing other users or non-privileged users to access and operate on the file.
UpdateCalendar Method (CalDAV Control)
Updates a calendar collection resource.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.UpdateCalendar ResourceURI, CalIndex
Remarks
This method updates an existing calendar collection at the specified ResourceURI. To successfully update a calendar, the ResourceURI should already exist, and must point to a valid location where a calendar is saved. This method requires the specified calendar collection index. Use ListCalendars and search through Calendars to find the index of the calendar to be updated.
The following example shows how to update a calendar collection resource:
CalDAV.CreateCalendar("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/userid/Calendar/TestCal1", "test", "test");
calDAV.Calendars[0].DisplayName = "test_updated";
calDAV.Calendars[0].Color = "#000001";
calDAV.UpdateCalendar("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/userid/Calendar/TestCal1", 0);
Note that Google does not support updating a calendar through CalDAV. It must be updated through the Google calendar web interface.
There is no standard format for resource URIs. Google for instance, uses "https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/" plus your
email address to access the default calendar. So "https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/username@gmail.com/"
is the base URI for the default calendar. If you have multiple calendars, replace the email address portion above with the
Id of the calendar, plus "@group.calendar.google.com/". For instance:
"https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/ev3nkr4ua83jej7q32oumn5eeo@group.calendar.google.com/".
For Google, calendar events are stored in the "/events/" path. To retrieve a report on a calendar, you'd add "/events/" to
one of the above paths. For example:
CalDAV.GetCalendarReport("https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/username@gmail.com/events/");
Leaving the "/events/" out of the URI will result in an HTTP protocol error: 405 Method not allowed.
To add or retrieve an event, add the UID of the event you're creating or retrieving plus ".ics" to the path.
Note that when putting an event with the CreateEvent method, if the resourceURI and the UID do not match
Google will create the event using the UID stored in the UID property. The actual location of will be newly
added event will be returned in a "Location" header. This is the resource URI you must use to retrieve the event
with GetEvent. For example:
CalDAV.UID = "1234567890";
CalDAV.CreateEvent("https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/username@gmail.com/events/1234567890.ics");
Yahoo uses a different format for CalDAV access. Yahoo's ResourceURIs always start with "https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/"
plus your user name, plus "/Calendar/" plus the name of your calendar. For
instance: "https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Your_Name" for the default calendar. (Yahoo uses your name
to create the default calendar). When using the CreateCalendar event to create a new calendar, replace "Your_Name" in the
URI with the desired name of your new calendar. Event resources are located directly under the "/Calendar/Calendar_Name/" path.
Like Google, the UID and filename portion of the resource URI must match, but Yahoo will actually return an HTTP protocol error
if they differ. The examples below show a few possible transactions:
CalDAV.User = "username";
CalDAV.Password = "password";
CalDAV.CreateCalendar("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/", "My Hockey Calendar", "My Hockey Calendar");
CalDAV.StartDate = "20100401T040000";
CalDAV.EndDate = "20100401T060000";
CalDAV.UID = "qwerty1234567";
CalDAV.Summary = "First Practice";
CalDAV.Location = "Rink on 1st and main";
CalDAV.EventType = vEvent;
CalDAV.CreateEvent("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/qwerty1234567.ics");
CalDAV.GetCalendarReport("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/");
UpdateEvent Method (CalDAV Control)
Updates a calendar resource at the specified ResourceURI using the CalDAV PUT method.
Syntax
caldavcontrol.UpdateEvent ResourceURI
Remarks
This method updates an existing event to the calendar collection at the specified ResourceURI. The ResourceURI must be a fully qualified URL to the location on the CalDAV server to which this event is saved.
NOTE: Some CalDAV servers (Yahoo for example) require that the UID and the filename portion of the URI match. For example, if the UID is "hello_world" then the ResourceURI parameter of the UpdateEvent should be "https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/user_name/Calendar/My_Calendar/hello_world.ics". If the UID and filename portion of the URI do not match, the Yahoo CalDAV server will return a "302 Found" response indicating that the requested resource resides under a different URI. (Meaning the event was not added to the calendar). NextCloud on the other hand doesn't have this requirement.
The following properties are used when creating a request with CreateEvent or ExportICS, and will be filled after calling GetEvent or ImportICS. These will also be available from inside the EventDetails event, which is fired for each event received from the CalDAV server in response to a GetCalendarReport.

Connected Event (CalDAV Control)
Fired immediately after a connection completes (or fails).
Syntax
Sub caldavcontrol_Connected(StatusCode As Integer, Description As String)
Remarks
If the connection is made normally, StatusCode is 0 and Description is "OK".
If the connection fails, StatusCode has the error code returned by the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/IP stack. Description contains a description of this code. The value of StatusCode is equal to the value of the error. The corresponding Visual Basic error code can be obtained by adding 15001 to this value.
Please refer to the Error Codes section for more information.
ConnectionStatus Event (CalDAV Control)
Fired to indicate changes in the connection state.
Syntax
Sub caldavcontrol_ConnectionStatus(ConnectionEvent As String, StatusCode As Integer, Description As String)
Remarks
This event is fired when the connection state changes: for example, completion of a firewall or proxy connection or completion of a security handshake.
The ConnectionEvent parameter indicates the type of connection event. Values may include the following:
Firewall connection complete. | |
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) or S/Shell handshake complete (where applicable). | |
Remote host connection complete. | |
Remote host disconnected. | |
SSL or S/Shell connection broken. | |
Firewall host disconnected. |
Disconnected Event (CalDAV Control)
Fired when a connection is closed.
Syntax
Sub caldavcontrol_Disconnected(StatusCode As Integer, Description As String)
Remarks
If the connection is broken normally, StatusCode is 0 and Description is "OK".
If the connection is broken for any other reason, StatusCode has the error code returned by the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP/IP) subsystem. Description contains a description of this code. The value of StatusCode is equal to the value of the TCP/IP error. The corresponding Visual Basic error code can be obtained by adding 15001 to this value.
Please refer to the Error Codes section for more information.
EndTransfer Event (CalDAV Control)
This event is fired when a document finishes transferring.
Syntax
Sub caldavcontrol_EndTransfer(Direction As Integer)
Remarks
The EndTransfer event is fired when the document text finishes transferring from the server to the local host.
The Direction parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.
Error Event (CalDAV Control)
Fired when information is available about errors during data delivery.
Syntax
Sub caldavcontrol_Error(ErrorCode As Integer, Description As String)
Remarks
The Error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing. Normally the control fails with an error.
The ErrorCode parameter contains an error code, and the Description parameter contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the Error Codes section.
EventDetails Event (CalDAV Control)
Fires for each calendar event received.
Syntax
Sub caldavcontrol_EventDetails(ResourceURI As String, ResponseStatus As String, ETag As String, CalendarData As String, Summary As String)
Remarks
This event fires for each VEVENT, VTODO, VJOURNAL, or VFREEBUSY event received in response to a GetCalendarReport request. The ResourceURI parameter indicates the location of this particular event on the CalDAV server, and the ETag parameter is used to indicate the current state of the calendar event. If the ETag is different from the value you have cached for the current ResourceURI, it means the event has changed on the server since the last time you updated your cache. ResponseStatus indicates the HTTP status of CalDAV server received when attempting to retrieve this particular ResourceURI when it was building the report. The CalendarData parameter contains the raw calendar entry as returned by the CalDAV server. This data is also parsed into the following properties, and are valid for the current ResourceURI only inside this event. The Summary parameter indicates the summary of this particular calendar event.

Note that for a large calendar you may not wish to return the full contents of each calendar event, as this could be a substantially large amount of data. In this case, set the ReportFilterReturnCalendarData property to false, and only the ResourceURI, ResponseStatus, and ETag parameters will be returned by the CalDAV server for each calendar event. The contents of the event will not be returned, and the CalendarData parameter will be empty.
*The ResourceURI and the URL property are not the same. The URL property is an iCal field, and the ResourceURI is the actual location of the resource on the CalDAV server. Some CalDAV servers may force the URL to match the ResourceURI, but the URL should be treated as a separate user-defined entity by the user, and it should not be expected to match the ResourceURI. Likewise, ResponseStatus and Status are not the same. Status is the status of the event (TENTATIVE, CONFIRMED, CANCELLED, etc). ResponseStatus is the HTTP status received when the CalDAV server attempted to retrieve the current event when constructing a report.
FreeBusy Event (CalDAV Control)
Fires for each Free/Busy element received in the response.
Syntax
Sub caldavcontrol_FreeBusy(BusyType As String, BusyRange As String)
Remarks
This event fires for each FREEBUSY element received in response to a GetFreeBusyReport request. The FBTYPE will be contained in the BusyType parameter, and the FREEBUSY value itself will be contained in the BusyRange parameter. The Free/Busy information will also be stored in the FreeBusy collection.
Header Event (CalDAV Control)
Fired every time a header line comes in.
Syntax
Sub caldavcontrol_Header(Field As String, Value As String)
Remarks
The Field parameter contains the name of the HTTP header (which is the same as it is delivered). The Value parameter contains the header contents.
If the header line being retrieved is a continuation header line, then the Field parameter contains "" (empty string).
Log Event (CalDAV Control)
Fired once for each log message.
Syntax
Sub caldavcontrol_Log(LogLevel As Integer, Message As String, LogType As String)
Remarks
This event is fired once for each log message generated by the control. The verbosity is controlled by the LogLevel setting.
LogLevel indicates the level of message. Possible values are as follows:
0 (None) | No events are logged. |
1 (Info - default) | Informational events are logged. |
2 (Verbose) | Detailed data are logged. |
3 (Debug) | Debug data are logged. |
The value 1 (Info) logs basic information, including the URL, HTTP version, and status details.
The value 2 (Verbose) logs additional information about the request and response.
The value 3 (Debug) logs the headers and body for both the request and response, as well as additional debug information (if any).
Message is the log entry.
LogType identifies the type of log entry. Possible values are as follows:
- "Info"
- "RequestHeaders"
- "ResponseHeaders"
- "RequestBody"
- "ResponseBody"
- "ProxyRequest"
- "ProxyResponse"
- "FirewallRequest"
- "FirewallResponse"
Redirect Event (CalDAV Control)
Fired when a redirection is received from the server.
Syntax
Sub caldavcontrol_Redirect(Location As String, Accept As Boolean)
Remarks
This event is fired in cases in which the client can decide whether or not to continue with the redirection process. The Accept parameter is always True by default, but if you do not want to follow the redirection, Accept may be set to False, in which case the control fails with an error. Location is the location to which the client is being redirected. Further control over redirection is provided in the FollowRedirects property.
SetCookie Event (CalDAV Control)
Fired for every cookie set by the server.
Syntax
Sub caldavcontrol_SetCookie(Name As String, Value As String, Expires As String, Domain As String, Path As String, Secure As Boolean)
Remarks
This event is fired for every Set-Cookie: header received from the HTTP server.
The Name parameter contains the name of the cookie, with the corresponding value supplied in the Value parameter.
The Expires parameter contains an expiration time for the cookie (if provided by the server). The time format used is "Weekday, DD-Mon-YY HH:MM:SS GMT". If the server does not provide an expiration time, the Expires parameter will be an empty string. In this case, the convention is to drop the cookie at the end of the session.
The Domain parameter contains a domain name to limit the cookie to (if provided by the server). If the server does not provide a domain name, the Domain parameter will be an empty string. The convention in this case is to use the server specified in the URL (URLServer) as the cookie domain.
The Path parameter contains a path name to limit the cookie to (if provided by the server). If the server does not provide a cookie path, the Path parameter will be an empty string. The convention in this case is to use the path specified in the URL (URLPath) as the cookie path.
The Secure parameter specifies whether the cookie is secure. If the value of this parameter is True, the cookie value must be submitted only through a secure (HTTPS) connection.
SSLServerAuthentication Event (CalDAV Control)
Fired after the server presents its certificate to the client.
Syntax
Sub caldavcontrol_SSLServerAuthentication(CertEncoded As String, CertSubject As String, CertIssuer As String, Status As String, Accept As Boolean)
Remarks
During this event, the client can decide whether or not to continue with the connection process. The Accept parameter is a recommendation on whether to continue or close the connection. This is just a suggestion: application software must use its own logic to determine whether or not to continue.
When Accept is False, Status shows why the verification failed (otherwise, Status contains the string OK). If it is decided to continue, you can override and accept the certificate by setting the Accept parameter to True.
SSLStatus Event (CalDAV Control)
Fired when secure connection progress messages are available.
Syntax
Sub caldavcontrol_SSLStatus(Message As String)
Remarks
The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only. This event tracks the progress of the connection.
StartTransfer Event (CalDAV Control)
This event is fired when a document starts transferring (after the headers).
Syntax
Sub caldavcontrol_StartTransfer(Direction As Integer)
Remarks
The StartTransfer event is fired when the document text starts transferring from the server to the local host.
The Direction parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.
Status Event (CalDAV Control)
Fired when the HTTP status line is received from the server.
Syntax
Sub caldavcontrol_Status(HTTPVersion As String, StatusCode As Integer, Description As String)
Remarks
HTTPVersion is a string containing the HTTP version string as returned from the server (e.g., "1.1").
StatusCode contains the HTTP status code (e.g., 200), and Description the associated message returned by the server (e.g., "OK").
Transfer Event (CalDAV Control)
Fired while a document transfers (delivers document).
Syntax
Sub caldavcontrol_Transfer(Direction As Integer, BytesTransferred As Long64, PercentDone As Integer, Text As String)
Remarks
The Text parameter contains the portion of the document text being received. It is empty if data are being posted to the server.
The BytesTransferred parameter contains the number of bytes transferred in this Direction since the beginning of the document text (excluding HTTP response headers).
The Direction parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.
The PercentDone parameter shows the progress of the transfer in the corresponding direction. If PercentDone can not be calculated the value will be -1.
Note: Events are not re-entrant. Performing time-consuming operations within this event will prevent it from firing again in a timely manner and may affect overall performance.
Config Settings (CalDAV Control)
The control accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the control, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.CalDAV Config Settings
0 (default) | Attendee property is formatted as a comma-separated list |
1 | Attendee property is formatted as provided from the server |
When AttendeeFormat is set to 0, the Attendees property is retrieved as a comma separated list, where each email address is in the mailto URI format (as defined in RFC2368). For instance:
calDAV.Config("AttendeeFormat=0");
calDAV.GetEvent("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/qwerty1234567.ics");
Console.WriteLine(calDAV.Attendees);
//outputs:
// mailto:johnsmith@example.com,mailto:janedoe@test.com
When AttendeeFormat is set to 1, the Attendees property is retrieved in the raw format provided from the server. For instance:
calDAV.Config("AttendeeFormat=1");
calDAV.GetEvent("https://caldav.calendar.yahoo.com/dav/username/Calendar/Hockey_Calendar/qwerty1234567.ics");
Console.WriteLine(calDAV.Attendees);
//outputs:
// CN=johnsmith;CUTYPE=INDIVIDUAL;PARTSTAT=NEEDS-ACTION;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;RSVP=TRUE;LANGUAGE=en;SCHEDULE-STATUS=1.0:mailto:johnsmith@example.com,
// CN=janedoe;CUTYPE=INDIVIDUAL;PARTSTAT=NEEDS-ACTION;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;RSVP=TRUE;LANGUAGE=en;SCHEDULE-STATUS=1.0:mailto:janedoe@test.com
Note: the format may vary when AttendeeFormat is set to 1.
0 | Basic |
1 | Digest |
2 | Proprietary |
3 | None |
4 | NTLM |
Note that if the AuthScheme is set to Proprietary (2) then the authorization token must be supplied through Authorization setting.
For security purposes, changing the value of this property will cause the control to clear the values of User, Password and Authorization.
Note: this setting is used in conjunction with StartCalendar and EndCalendar.
This property is filled from the response to a GetEvent, and is also used when creating an event to be added using the CreateEvent method. However, when requesting a report using the GetCalendarReport method, the contents of this property will only be valid inside the EventDetails event.
0 (Unspecified - default) | Unspecified. The server will use the protocol default depth for the operation (this is normally "infinity"). |
1 (Resource Only) | The server will operate only on the collection resource URI, and not on any of its internal member resources. |
2 (Immediate Children) | The server will operate on the collection resource URI and all of its immediate member resources (but on none of their member resources). |
3 Infinity (Infinity) | The server will recursively operate on the target resource URI and all of its internal member URIs through all levels of the collection hierarchy. |
Depth is applicable to the following methods: LockCalendar, MoveEvent, CopyEvent, and GetCalendarReport
Note: this setting is used in conjunction with BuildEvent and StartCalendar.
calDAV.ReportFilter.StartDate = "20120130T000000Z";
calDAV.ReportFilter.EndDate = "20120203T235959Z";
calDAV.ReportFilter.RecurStart = calDAV.ReportFilter.StartDate;
calDAV.ReportFilter.RecurEnd = calDAV.ReportFilter.EndDate;
calDAV.Config("ExpandRecurringEvents=true");
calDAV.ReportFilter.ReturnCalendarData = true;
calDAV.ReportFilter.EventType = VEventTypes.vtAll;
calDAV.GetCalendarReport("http://www.some-url.com/caldav.php/events");
This setting should not be used to alter the interpretation of a calendar resource. For example, it is not to be used to further the understanding of non-standard properties.
This setting is required to have a value when creating a new calendar collection resource via the CreateCalendar method. For all others it is optional.
The table below shows some examples of supported values.
VALUE=DATE,VALUE=DATE | Attributes for the FIRST and SECOND exception dates. |
VALUE=DATE, | Attribute for the FIRST exception date. |
,VALUE=DATE | Attribute for the SECOND exception date. |

The current element is specified through the XPath configuration setting. This configuration setting is read-only.
When XPath is set to a valid path, XElement points to the name of the element, with XText, XParent, XSubTree, XChildCount, XChildName[i], and XChildXText[i] providing other properties of the element.
XPath syntax is available for both XML and JSON documents. An XPath is a series of one or more element accessors separated by the / character, for example, /A/B/C/D. An XPath can be absolute (i.e., it starts with /), or it can be relative to the current XPath location.
The following are possible values for an element accessor, which operates relative to the current location specified by the XPath accessors, which proceed it in the overall XPath string:
Accessor | Description |
name | The first element with a particular name. Can be *. |
[i] | The i-th element. |
name[i] | The i-th element with a particular name. |
[last()] | The last element. |
[last()-i] | The element i before the last element. |
name[@attrname="attrvalue"] | The first element with a particular name that contains the specified attribute-value pair.
Supports single and double quotes. (XML Only) |
. | The current element. |
.. | The parent element. |
For example, assume the following XML and JSON responses.
XML:
<firstlevel> <one>value</one> <two> <item>first</item> <item>second</item> </two> <three>value three</three> </firstlevel>
JSON:
{ "firstlevel": { "one": "value", "two": ["first", "second"], "three": "value three" } }
The following are examples of valid XPaths for these responses:
Description | XML XPath | JSON XPath |
Document root | / | /json |
Specific element | /firstlevel/one | /json/firstlevel/one |
i-th child | /firstlevel/two/item[2] | /json/firstlevel/two/[2] |
This list is not exhaustive, but it provides a general idea of the possibilities.

HTTP Config Settings
When True, the control adds an Accept-Encoding header to the outgoing request. The value for this header can be controlled by the AcceptEncoding configuration setting. The default value for this header is "gzip, deflate".
The default value is True.
If set to True (default), the control will automatically use HTTP/1.1 if the server does not support HTTP/2. If set to False, the control fails with an error if the server does not support HTTP/2.
The default value is True.
This property is provided so that the HTTP control can be extended with other security schemes in addition to the authorization schemes already implemented by the control.
The AuthScheme property defines the authentication scheme used. In the case of HTTP Basic Authentication (default), every time User and Password are set, they are Base64 encoded, and the result is put in the Authorization property in the form "Basic [encoded-user-password]".
The default value is False.
If this property is set to 2 (Same Scheme), the new URL is retrieved automatically only if the URL Scheme is the same; otherwise, the control fails with an error.
Note: Following the HTTP specification, unless this option is set to 1 (Always), automatic redirects will be performed only for GET or HEAD requests. Other methods potentially could change the conditions of the initial request and create security vulnerabilities.
Furthermore, if either the new URL server or port are different from the existing one, User and Password are also reset to empty, unless this property is set to 1 (Always), in which case the same credentials are used to connect to the new server.
A Redirect event is fired for every URL the product is redirected to. In the case of automatic redirections, the Redirect event is a good place to set properties related to the new connection (e.g., new authentication parameters).
The default value is 0 (Never). In this case, redirects are never followed, and the control fails with an error instead.
Following are the valid options:
- 0 - Never
- 1 - Always
- 2 - Same Scheme
- "1.0"
- "1.1" (default)
- "2.0"
- "3.0"
When using HTTP/2 ("2.0"), additional restrictions apply. Please see the following notes for details.
HTTP/2 Notes
When using HTTP/2, a secure Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (TLS/SSL) connection is required. Attempting to use a plaintext URL with HTTP/2 will result in an error.
If the server does not support HTTP/2, the control will automatically use HTTP/1.1 instead. This is done to provide compatibility without the need for any additional settings. To see which version was used, check NegotiatedHTTPVersion after calling a method. The AllowHTTPFallback setting controls whether this behavior is allowed (default) or disallowed.
HTTP/3 Notes
HTTP/3 is supported only in .NET and Java.
When using HTTP/3, a secure (TLS/SSL) connection is required. Attempting to use a plaintext URL with HTTP/3 will result in an error.
The format of the date value for IfModifiedSince is detailed in the HTTP specs. For example:
Sat, 29 Oct 2017 19:43:31 GMT.
The default value for KeepAlive is .
0 (None) | No events are logged. |
1 (Info - default) | Informational events are logged. |
2 (Verbose) | Detailed data are logged. |
3 (Debug) | Debug data are logged. |
The value 1 (Info) logs basic information, including the URL, HTTP version, and status details.
The value 2 (Verbose) logs additional information about the request and response.
The value 3 (Debug) logs the headers and body for both the request and response, as well as additional debug information (if any).
The headers must follow the format "header: value" as described in the HTTP specifications. Header lines should be separated by CRLF (Chr$(13) & Chr$(10)) .
Use this configuration setting with caution. If this configuration setting contains invalid headers, HTTP requests may fail.
This configuration setting is useful for extending the functionality of the control beyond what is provided.
.NET
Http http = new Http();
http.Config("TransferredRequest=on");
http.PostData = "body";
http.Post("http://someserver.com");
Console.WriteLine(http.Config("TransferredRequest"));
C++
HTTP http;
http.Config("TransferredRequest=on");
http.SetPostData("body", 5);
http.Post("http://someserver.com");
printf("%s\r\n", http.Config("TransferredRequest"));
Note: Some servers (such as the ASP.NET Development Server) may not support chunked encoding.
The default value is False and the hostname will always be used exactly as specified. Note: The CodePage setting must be set to a value capable of interpreting the specified host name. For instance, to specify UTF-8, set CodePage to 65001.
When True (default), the control will check for the existence of a Proxy auto-config URL, and if found, will determine the appropriate proxy to use.
Override the default with the name and version of your software.
TCPClient Config Settings
If the FirewallHost setting is set to a Domain Name, a DNS request is initiated. Upon successful termination of the request, the FirewallHost setting is set to the corresponding address. If the search is not successful, an error is returned.
Note: This setting is provided for use by controls that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

0 | No firewall (default setting). |
1 | Connect through a tunneling proxy. FirewallPort is set to 80. |
2 | Connect through a SOCKS4 Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080. |
3 | Connect through a SOCKS5 Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080. |
10 | Connect through a SOCKS4A Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080. |

Note: This value is not applicable in macOS.
In the case that Linger is True (default), two scenarios determine how long the connection will linger. In the first, if LingerTime is 0 (default), the system will attempt to send pending data for a connection until the default IP timeout expires.
In the second scenario, if LingerTime is a positive value, the system will attempt to send pending data until the specified LingerTime is reached. If this attempt fails, then the system will reset the connection.
The default behavior (which is also the default mode for stream sockets) might result in a long delay in closing the connection. Although the control returns control immediately, the system could hold system resources until all pending data are sent (even after your application closes).
Setting this property to False forces an immediate disconnection. If you know that the other side has received all the data you sent (e.g., by a client acknowledgment), setting this property to False might be the appropriate course of action.
In multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface), setting LocalHost to the value of an interface will make the control initiate connections (or accept in the case of server controls) only through that interface.
If the control is connected, the LocalHost setting shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface).
Setting this to 0 (default) enables the system to choose a port at random. The chosen port will be shown by LocalPort after the connection is established.
LocalPort cannot be changed once a connection is made. Any attempt to set this when a connection is active will generate an error.
This configuration setting is useful when trying to connect to services that require a trusted port on the client side. An example is the remote shell (rsh) service in UNIX systems.
If an EOL string is found in the input stream before MaxLineLength bytes are received, the DataIn event is fired with the EOL parameter set to True, and the buffer is reset.
If no EOL is found, and MaxLineLength bytes are accumulated in the buffer, the DataIn event is fired with the EOL parameter set to False, and the buffer is reset.
The minimum value for MaxLineLength is 256 bytes. The default value is 2048 bytes.

Note: This value is not applicable in Java.
By default, this configuration setting is set to False.
0 | IPv4 only |
1 | IPv6 only |
2 | IPv6 with IPv4 fallback |
SSL Config Settings
When enabled, SSL packet logs are output using the SSLStatus event, which will fire each time an SSL packet is sent or received.
Enabling this configuration setting has no effect if SSLProvider is set to Platform.
The path set by this property should point to a directory containing CA certificates in PEM format. The files each contain one CA certificate. The files are looked up by the CA subject name hash value, which must hence be available. If more than one CA certificate with the same name hash value exist, the extension must be different (e.g., 9d66eef0.0, 9d66eef0.1). OpenSSL recommends the use of the c_rehash utility to create the necessary links. Please refer to the OpenSSL man page SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3) for details.
The file set by this property should contain a list of CA certificates in PEM format. The file can contain several CA certificates identified by the following sequences:
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
... (CA certificate in base64 encoding) ...
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
Before, between, and after the certificate text is allowed, which can be used, for example, for descriptions of the certificates. Refer to the OpenSSL man page SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3) for details.
The format of this string is described in the OpenSSL man page ciphers(1) section "CIPHER LIST FORMAT". Please refer to it for details. The default string "DEFAULT" is determined at compile time and is normally equivalent to "ALL:!ADH:RC4+RSA:+SSLv2:@STRENGTH".
By default, OpenSSL uses the device file "/dev/urandom" to seed the PRNG, and setting OpenSSLPrngSeedData is not required. If set, the string specified is used to seed the PRNG.
If set to True, the control will reuse the context if and only if the following criteria are met:
- The target host name is the same.
- The system cache entry has not expired (default timeout is 10 hours).
- The application process that calls the function is the same.
- The logon session is the same.
- The instance of the control is the same.

When set to 0 (default), the CRL check will not be performed by the control. When set to 1, it will attempt to perform the CRL check, but it will continue without an error if the server's certificate does not support CRL. When set to 2, it will perform the CRL check and will throw an error if CRL is not supported.
This configuration setting is supported only in the Java, C#, and C++ editions. In the C++ edition, it is supported only on Windows operating systems.
When set to 0 (default), the control will not perform an OCSP check. When set to 1, it will attempt to perform the OCSP check, but it will continue without an error if the server's certificate does not support OCSP. When set to 2, it will perform the OCSP check and will throw an error if OCSP is not supported.
This configuration setting is supported only in the Java, C#, and C++ editions. In the C++ edition, it is supported only on Windows operating systems.
Note: This configuration setting contains the minimum cipher strength requested from the security library. The actual cipher strength used for the connection is shown by the SSLStatus event.
Use this configuration setting with caution. Requesting a lower cipher strength than necessary could potentially cause serious security vulnerabilities in your application.
When the provider is OpenSSL, SSLCipherStrength is currently not supported. This functionality is instead made available through the OpenSSLCipherList configuration setting.
The value of this configuration setting is a newline-separated (CR/LF) list of certificates. For instance:

By default, the enabled cipher suites will include all available ciphers ("*").
The special value "*" means that the control will pick all of the supported cipher suites. If SSLEnabledCipherSuites is set to any other value, only the specified cipher suites will be considered.
Multiple cipher suites are separated by semicolons.
Example values when SSLProvider is set to Platform include the following:
obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=*");

When TLS 1.3 is negotiated (see SSLEnabledProtocols), only the following cipher suites are supported:
- TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384
- TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256
- TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256
SSLEnabledCipherSuites is used together with SSLCipherStrength.
Not all supported protocols are enabled by default. The default value is 4032 for client components, and 3072 for server components. To specify a combination of enabled protocol versions set this config to the binary OR of one or more of the following values:
TLS1.3 | 12288 (Hex 3000) |
TLS1.2 | 3072 (Hex C00) (Default - Client and Server) |
TLS1.1 | 768 (Hex 300) (Default - Client) |
TLS1 | 192 (Hex C0) (Default - Client) |
SSL3 | 48 (Hex 30) |
SSL2 | 12 (Hex 0C) |
Note that only TLS 1.2 is enabled for server components that accept incoming connections. This adheres to industry standards to ensure a secure connection. Client components enable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and TLS 1.2 by default and will negotiate the highest mutually supported version when connecting to a server, which should be TLS 1.2 in most cases.
SSLEnabledProtocols: Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.3 Notes:
By default when TLS 1.3 is enabled, the control will use the internal TLS implementation when the SSLProvider is set to Automatic for all editions.
In editions that are designed to run on Windows, SSLProvider can be set to Platform to use the platform implementation instead of the internal implementation. When configured in this manner, please note that the platform provider is supported only on Windows 11/Windows Server 2022 and up. The default internal provider is available on all platforms and is not restricted to any specific OS version.
If set to 1 (Platform provider), please be aware of the following notes:
- The platform provider is available only on Windows 11/Windows Server 2022 and up.
- SSLEnabledCipherSuites and other similar SSL configuration settings are not supported.
- If SSLEnabledProtocols includes both TLS 1.3 and TLS 1.2, these restrictions are still applicable even if TLS 1.2 is negotiated. Enabling TLS 1.3 with the platform provider changes the implementation used for all TLS versions.
SSLEnabledProtocols: SSL2 and SSL3 Notes:
SSL 2.0 and 3.0 are not supported by the control when the SSLProvider is set to internal. To use SSL 2.0 or SSL 3.0, the platform security API must have the protocols enabled and SSLProvider needs to be set to platform.
This configuration setting is applicable only when SSLProvider is set to Internal.
If set to True, all certificates returned by the server will be present in the Encoded parameter of the SSLServerAuthentication event. This includes the leaf certificate, any intermediate certificate, and the root certificate.
When set, the control will save the session secrets in the same format as the SSLKEYLOGFILE environment variable functionality used by most major browsers and tools, such as Chrome, Firefox, and cURL. This file can then be used in tools such as Wireshark to decrypt TLS traffic for debugging purposes. When writing to this file, the control will only append, it will not overwrite previous values.
Note: This configuration setting is applicable only when SSLProvider is set to Internal.

The value of this configuration setting is a newline-separated (CR/LF) list of certificates. For instance:
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw ... Intermediate Cert... eWHV5OW1K53o/atv59sOiW5K3crjFhsBOd5Q+cJJnU+SWinPKtANXMht+EDvYY2w F0I1XhM+pKj7FjDr+XNj -----END CERTIFICATE----- \r \n -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- MIIEFjCCAv6gAwIBAgIQetu1SMxpnENAnnOz1P+PtTANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQUFADBp ...

When specified the control will verify that the server certificate signature algorithm is among the values specified in this configuration setting. If the server certificate signature algorithm is unsupported, the control fails with an error.
The format of this value is a comma-separated list of hash-signature combinations. For instance:
component.SSLProvider = TCPClientSSLProviders.sslpInternal;
component.Config("SSLEnabledProtocols=3072"); //TLS 1.2
component.Config("TLS12SignatureAlgorithms=sha256-rsa,sha256-dsa,sha1-rsa,sha1-dsa");
The default value for this configuration setting is sha512-ecdsa,sha512-rsa,sha512-dsa,sha384-ecdsa,sha384-rsa,sha384-dsa,sha256-ecdsa,sha256-rsa,sha256-dsa,sha224-ecdsa,sha224-rsa,sha224-dsa,sha1-ecdsa,sha1-rsa,sha1-dsa.
To not restrict the server's certificate signature algorithm, specify an empty string as the value for this configuration setting, which will cause the signature_algorithms TLS 1.2 extension to not be sent.
The default value is ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ecdhe_secp521r1.
When using TLS 1.2 and SSLProvider is set to Internal, the values refer to the supported groups for ECC. The following values are supported:
- "ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
- "ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)
- "ecdhe_secp521r1" (default)
The default value is set to balance common supported groups and the computational resources required to generate key shares. As a result, only some groups are included by default in this configuration setting.
Note: All supported groups can always be used during the handshake even if not listed here, but if a group is used that is not present in this list, it will incur an additional roundtrip and time to generate the key share for that group.
In most cases, this configuration setting does not need to be modified. This should be modified only if there is a specific reason to do so.
The default value is ecdhe_x25519,ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ffdhe_2048,ffdhe_3072

Note: This option is not valid for User Datagram Protocol (UDP) ports.
Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the control is activated the InBufferSize reverts to its defined size. The same happens if you attempt to make it too large or too small.
Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the control is activated the OutBufferSize reverts to its defined size. The same happens if you attempt to make it too large or too small.
