Description

Steps to reproduce
  1. import .ics caleder via setting->import calender into a new calender
  2. share with other users
Expected behavior

when sharing this calender, the entries should be shown to the shared users as well, which it does not do

Actual behavior

to see this entries for shared users

following problem:

  • import .ics calender file with calender entries. these entries contain a property "CLASS:public", which should indicate that the import policy of this event translate to the the property "When shared show full event". In case of writing "public" lowercase, it results in property "when shared hide this event"
  • Workaround: replace all "CLASS:public" with "CLASS:PUBLIC" in .ics file (via notepad++ etc.)
  • Fix: seems like implementation is case dependent after CLASS tag

Research direction

No files or tests are identified in the report. Start by tracing the .ics import path and how the CLASS property is converted into sharing visibility, then reproduce the case-sensitive behavior and verify that lowercase and uppercase public values produce the intended shared-event visibility.
