Subscribing to the Feed

It is easy to subscribe to your Canvas calendar using Google Calendar and Outlook for PC (see the articles below for additional information). Outlook for Mac does not support iCal feeds at this time, but Mac users can use iCal itself as well as the Outlook on the Web . 

Note:  The updates from Canvas calendar to another calendar do not happen instantaneously, there is approximately a 1 hour response time for the updates to be pushed from Canvas calendar.
