Calendar Feeds
Calendar feeds let you add Campus Portal and other external calendar meetings, appointments, and events to your J1 Web Home page, Universal toolbar, and Calendar Center calendars. You can also publish select J1 Web calendars as feeds to be added to external calendars such as Google, Outlook and the Campus Portal. These are one-way synchronizations and calendar items cannot be updated, added, or removed; however, feeds are consistently refreshed and updates reflected.
