How Do I Sync My SOUS Calendar with Other Calendars?

If you use a third-party calendar such as Google Calendar,   Microsoft Outlook , or iCal you can sync your SOUS calendar to them using a special "Shared Calendar" URL.

After copying the URL select your calendar app to the right or scroll down to locate it:

  4. Microsoft Outlook (recent versions)
(Other calendar apps that support URLs will also work)
