Description
Steps to reproduce
- Create a calendar in Nextcloud
- Go to share options and copy the "Subscription link"
- Add the calendar to Google Calendar
- Wait for Google Calendar to sync
- Add/edit an event in Nextcloud Calendar
- Wait for Google Calendar to sync.
Expected behavior
Google Calendar should periodically update events from the ical feed. Maybe a few times per day. Google does correctly sync iCal feeds other than Nextcloud.
Actual behavior
Google Calendar does not ever refresh after the initial sync. Apparently this can be caused by missing fields: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/60560457/google-doesnt-sync-my-subscribed-ics-feed
