Adding Calendar invite file into email templates


mei_ling_kuan
Hi There 
Is there a way for us to include calendar invites, ics files in an email template. We are about to send newsletters with proposed webinar sessions via ics files. I tried to add these files into the email template but it says it is not support. Why is that? These files are perfectly acceptable for emailing?

Thanks,
mei ling

We have whitelisted the type of files that can be attached and ics is not part of it. I agree that it is perfectly safe to send ics files.

I've added this to the backlog, this will be possible after July release. Sorry about the inconvenience
