Add a test event

Parameters

v

required: yes

format: number

example: v=60

description: Must be 60. Possibly a version number?

TITLE

required: yes

format: text

example: TITLE=Birthday

description: Event title. Line feeds will appear in the confirmation screen, but will not be saved. May not contain HTML.

ST

required: yes

format: datetime (ISO8601)

example: ST=20201231T193000Z

description: Event start time. Options:

  • 20201231T193000Z: Event start time in UTC. Will be converted to the user's time zone.
  • 20201231T193000: Event start time in user's local time
  • 20201231: Event start time for an all day event. DUR value is ignored if this form is used.

ET

required: yes

format: datetime (ISO8601)

example: ET=20201231T193000Z

description: Event end time. Options the same as for st parameter.

Note that dur parameter will be ignored if et is specified.

⚠️ This parameter appears to be broken with respect to timezones (need to confirm).

dur

required: no

status: appears to no longer work

format: time (HHmm) or allday

example: dur=0200

description: Duration of the event. Format is HHmm, zero-padded. mm may range up to 99, and is converted into hours appropriately. HH values over 24 hours appear to be modulated by 24. Durations that span midnight behave strangely. Leave this blank if the event has no specific end time, or if this is an all-day event. Note that dur parameter will be ignored if et is specified. Used only when et is not specified OR value is allday.

Note that the maximum duration yahoo can except is 99 hours and 59 minutes due to the limitation of the format.
