URL scheme to open iCal application on a date or event?

Question

The Apple URL Schema Link provides a good overview of a number of URL schemes that you can use to open certain embedded applications with some options.

I know that this is not a complete list of all the possible URL schemes that embedded applications react to, since there are also ways to open the configuration system on different pages. The website http://handleopenurl.com is a good attempt to collect all possible URL schemes, and there are many built-in applications there.

One application that I would like to open using the URL scheme is the Calendar application (formerly known as iCal). But is there a circuit? If you know what there is, please split up (perhaps by first adding it to handleopenurl.com?). Hooray!

PS Yes, I know the features of the EventKit (UI) frameworks. But I would like to specifically open the iCal application.

Answer 1

Probably the Answer is No You should look at this similar question and another similar question that is marked as accepted, so hopefully this is true.

Answer 2

You can try this code:

 NSString* launchUrl = @"calshow://"; [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString: launchUrl]]; 

Answer 3

I can’t find the documentation for the parameters, but entering ical:// into the open address bar of the browser opens Calendar.app on macOS Sierra 10.12.1.

Note. As for Apple apps, this also works with reminders:// ... maybe others
