ON DEVELOPING AN APPLICATION FOR INTEGRATION OF DATA FROM A UNIVERSITY INFORMATION SYSTEM INTO GOOGLE CALENDAR

Abstract

The study describes a technology for integrating schedule data from a web-extension of the information system supporting the educational process into Google Calendar. Using the high-level programming language C#, the Schedule Transformer software was developed as a console and web-application that implements the function of uploading a week’s schedule or that of a certain date range. A study of the structure of ical-files, which support data import in the most popular calendars (Google Calendar and Yandex Calendar), was conducted during implementation. The application can be used to broaden the functional possibilities of information systems aimed at supporting educational process via the ability to upload data in a user-friendly format.
