Body

Description

UCORE, the UCO Organizations, Resources and Events portal, features an option to feed events via RSS to other resources.

Instructions

The main RSS feed of all public events is available via this URL: https://uco.campusgroups.com/rss_events?rss=1

Events for specific groups, such as STLR, can be found using the same URL with additional parameters: https://uco.campusgroups.com/rss_events?rss=36531

To retrieve events from specific groups you could for instance use group_ids (comma separated list of group ids) or club_url (acronym of the group). Please note that some of the query parameters, particularly those related to retrieving non public events (deleted, draft, unapproved, etc) are not supported without authentication.

Notes from the vendor

The RSS Events API has been updated to support unauthenticated usage (in which case it only returns public events). For import in standard RSSparsing tools we would suggest using the following url https://uco.campusgroups.com/rss_events?rss=1 (which also ensures that non RSS fields are namespaced as per the specification). 

The platform also offers ICS feeds which may be better suited to sync events into calendaring software if that is the target. You may find various ICS links at https://uco.campusgroups.com/ics_helper (note that the generated links rely on the currently logged in user so you may want to visit the page logged out to see ICS links for public events only).
