6.5 Calendar Synchronization (CalDAV)

Download article

CalDAV keeps LightDrive calendars synchronized with compatible phone, tablet, and desktop apps.

  • Discovery address: lightdrive.one
  • Manual fallback URL: https://vault.lightdrive.one/remote.php/dav/
  • Username: your full [email protected] address
  • Password: a LightDrive client password that includes Calendars (recommended)

For third-party Calendar clients, a separately revocable LightDrive client password that includes Calendars is recommended. Your main LightDrive password or a Vault app password may also work with compatible Calendar clients.

Use lightdrive.one when the app supports automatic discovery. If discovery fails or the app requires a complete URL, use https://vault.lightdrive.one/remote.php/dav/. Keep certificate verification enabled. After the account is discovered, select the calendars to synchronize.

CalDAV synchronizes calendar records, not email or files. Configure CardDAV separately for contacts and IMAP/SMTP separately for email.

A separate password for your device

In the Vault, open Settings → Security → App & device access. Create a LightDrive client password for this device and select the services it needs. Choose Calendars only, or combine it with Email and/or Contacts. Copy the password when shown; it cannot be displayed again. Existing LightDrive client passwords do not gain services that were not selected when they were created.

Use your full LightDrive email address and preserve the case of your LightDrive ID. For Calendar, try the discovery address lightdrive.one first and use https://vault.lightdrive.one/remote.php/dav/ as the manual fallback. Contacts uses https://dav.lightdrive.one/. One combined password can authorize both, but they are separate connections and may need separate setup.

Changing your main Vault password does not rotate this client password. Revoke it in Security when a device is lost or no longer used; a combined password is revoked for every service selected for it. A calendar-scoped client password does not grant Files access or permission to manage sharing invitations.
