Introduction - - CalDAV [RFC4791] provides a way for calendar users to store calendar - data and exchange this data via scheduling operations. Based on the - WebDAV [RFC4918] protocol, it also includes the ability to manage - access to calendar data via the WebDAV ACL [RFC3744] extension. - - WebDAV ACL [RFC3744] provides a way to manage fine-grained access - controls on WebDAV resources. Whilst this could be used directly to - manage sharing of calendars, experience has shown that client - developers are averse to using it due to its complexity. Instead a - simpler process for sharing calendars is preferred. - - This extension defines a way for individual calendar users to share - calendars with other users. This is done via an "opt-in" process in - which a sharing invite is sent from the sharer to a sharee, allowing - the sharee to accept or decline. If the sharee accepts the sharing - invite, the shared calendar is made available to them in their own - calendar home collection (i.e., alongside their own personal - calendars). HTTP POST operations are used to manage the sharing - invitations and replies, and WebDAV properties are used to expose the - state of shared calendars. - - -2. Conventions Used in This Document - - The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", - "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this - document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119]. - - When XML element types in the namespaces "DAV:" and - "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:caldav" are referenced in this document - outside of the context of an XML fragment, the string "DAV:" and - "CALDAV:" will be prefixed to the element type names respectively. - - The namespace "http://calendarserver.org/ns/" is used for XML - elements defined in this specification. When XML element types in - that namespace are referenced in this document outside of the context - of an XML fragment, the string "CS:" will be prefixed to the element - type names. - - Terms Used: - - Sharer A calendar user who is sharing a calendar with other calendar - users. - - - - - - -Daboo & York [Page 3] - - CalDAV Sharing and Publishing September 2012 - - - Sharee A calendar user to whom a calendar has been shared. - - Sharing Invite A message sent by a sharer to a sharee to indicate - the status of a shared calendar. - - Sharing Reply A message sent by a sharee to a sharer to indicate the - status of a shared calendar. - - -3. Overview - - This section provides a basic overview of this protocol by way of a - simple use case of a sharer sharing a calendar with a single sharee. - - To share a calendar with another user, the sharer's client executes - an HTTP POST request against the calendar collection resource for the - calendar to be shared. The POST request body will contain details of - the calendar user to whom the calendar is to be shared as well as the - access right to be granted to them. If the request succeeds, a - notification is sent to the sharee with details of the calendar being - shared to them. - - The sharer's client will show the notification to the sharee and - present them with the choice to accept or decline the invitation to - the shared calendar. If the sharee chooses to decline, then nothing - changes for that sharee. If the sharee chooses to accept, then the - server automatically creates a new calendar collection resource in - the sharee's calendar home collection, and ensures that calendar - provides a mapping to the actual shared calendar of the sharer. Thus - the shared calendar is available to the sharee as just another - calendar in their calendar home. The server enforces the appropriare - access privileges for the sharee. - - At any time, the sharer can inspect properties on the calendar - collection being shared, and determine the accept/decline status of - each sharee. Additional sharees can be added and existing ones - removed. The access privileges for existing sharees can also be - changed. - - Once a sharee has a shared calendar set to appear in their calendar - home collection, they can remove it and decline the sharing invite by - simply having their client issue an HTTP DELETE request on the shared - calendar collection. That does not delete any calendar data, but - rather simply removes the "link" to the sharer's calendar collection - and sets the sharee's inviate status to declined. - - - - - - -Daboo & York [Page 4] - - CalDAV Sharing and Publishing September 2012 - - -4. Notifications - - In order to facilitate the process of sharing invitations, this - specification defines a new generic notification mechanism for CalDAV - servers. When this feature is available, a CS:notification-URL - (Section 4.1.1) property appears on principal resources for those - principals who are able to receive notifications. That property - specifies a single DAV:href element whose content refers to a WebDAV - collection resource. Notification "messages" are deposited into this - collection and can be retrieved by clients and acted on accordingly. - - The notification collection referenced by the CS:notification-URL - (Section 4.1.1) property MUST have a DAV:resourcetype property with - DAV:collection and CS:notification (Section 6.24) child elements. - - Notification "messages" are XML documents stored as resources in the - notification collection. Each XML document contains a CS: - notification (Section 6.24) element as its root. The root element - contains a CS:dtstamp (Section 6.25) element, and one additional - element which represents the type of notification being conveyed in - the message. That child element will typically contain additional - content that describes the notification. - - Each notification resource has a CS:notificationtype (Section 4.2.1) - property which contains as its single child element an empty element - that matches the child element of the notification resource XML - document root. Any attributes on the child element in the XML - document are also present in the property child element. - - Notifications are automatically generated by the server (perhaps in - response to a client action) with an appropriate resource stored in - the notifications collection of the user to whom the notification is - targeted. Clients SHOULD monitor the notification collection looking - for new notification resources. When doing so, clients SHOULD look - at the CS:notificationtype (Section 4.2.1) property to ensure that - the notification is of a type that the client can handle. Once a - client has handled the notification in whatever way is appropriate it - SHOULD delete the notification resource. Servers MAY delete - notification resources on their own if they determine that the - notifications are no longer relevant or valid. Servers MAY coalesce - notifications as appropriate. - -4.1. Additional Principal Properties - - This section defines new properties for WebDAV principal resources as - defined in RFC3744 [RFC3744]. These properties are likely to be - protected but the server MAY allow them to be written by appropriate - users. - - - -Daboo & York [Page 5] - - CalDAV Sharing and Publishing September 2012 - - -4.1.1. CS:notification-URL Property - - Name: notification-URL - - Namespace: http://calendarserver.org/ns/ - - Purpose: Identify the URL of the notification collection owned by - the associated principal resource. - - Protected: This property SHOULD be protected. - - PROPFIND behavior: This property SHOULD NOT be returned by a - PROPFIND allprop request (as defined in Section 14.2 of - [RFC4918]). - - COPY/MOVE behavior: This property value SHOULD be preserved in COPY - and MOVE operations. - - Description: This property is needed for a client to determine where - the notification collection of the current user is located so that - processing of notification messages can occur. If not present, - then the associated calendar user is not enabled for notification - messages on the server. - - Definition: - - <!ELEMENT notification-URL (DAV:href)> - -4.2. Properties on Notification Resources - - The following new WebDAV properties are defined for notification - resources. - -4.2.1. CS:notificationtype Property - - Name: notificationtype - - Namespace: http://calendarserver.org/ns/ - - Purpose: Identify the type of notification of the corresponding - resource. - - Protected: This property MUST be protected. - - PROPFIND behavior: This property SHOULD NOT be returned by a - PROPFIND allprop request (as defined in Section 14.2 of - [RFC4918]). - - - - -Daboo & York [Page 6] - - CalDAV Sharing and Publishing September 2012 - - - COPY/MOVE behavior: This property value MUST be preserved in COPY - and MOVE operations. - - Description: This property allows a client, via a PROPFIND Depth:1 - request, to quickly find notification messages that the client can - handle in a notification collection. The single child element is - the notification resource root element's child defining the - notification itself. This element MUST be empty, though any - attributes on the element in the notification resource MUST be - present in the property element. - - Definition: - - <!ELEMENT notificationtype (invite-notification | invite-reply)> - <!-- Child elements are empty but will have appropriate attributes. - Any valid notification message child element can appear.--> - - -5. Shared Calendaring - -5.1. Feature Discovery - - A server that supports the features described in this document MUST - include "calendarserver-sharing" as a field in the DAV response - header from an OPTIONS request on any resource that supports these - features. - -5.2. Additional Properties for Calendars - - The following new or modified WebDAV properties are defined for - calendar collections and used to view or manipulate shared calendar - features. - -5.2.1. DAV:resourcetype Property - - Calendar collections that are shared have addition elements listed in - their DAV:resourcetype property in addition to DAV:collection and - CALDAV:calendar. - - o CS:shared-owner (Section 6.1): used to indicate that the calendar - is owned by the current user and is being shared by them. - - o CS:shared (Section 6.2): used to indicate that the calendar is - owned by another user and is being shared to the current user. - - - - - - - -Daboo & York [Page 7] - - CalDAV Sharing and Publishing September 2012 - - -5.2.2. CS:invite Property - - Name: invite - - Namespace: http://calendarserver.org/ns/ - - Purpose: Used to show to whom a calendar has been shared. - - Protected: This property MUST be protected. - - PROPFIND behavior: This property SHOULD NOT be returned by a - PROPFIND allprop request (as defined in Section 14.2 of - [RFC4918]). - - COPY/MOVE behavior: This property value MUST be preserved in COPY - and MOVE operations. - - Description: This WebDAV property is present on a calendar - collection resource that has been shared by the owner, or on the - calendar collection resources of the sharees of the calendar. It - provides a list of users to whom the calendar has been shared, - along with the "status" of the sharing invites sent to each user. - In addition, servers SHOULD include a CS:organizer XML element on - calendar collection resources of the sharees to provide clients - with a fast way to determine who the sharer is. A server's local - privacy policy may prevent sharees from knowing about other - sharees on a shared calendar. If that is so server will not - include CS:user XML elements for other sharees. - - Definition: - - <!ELEMENT invite (organizer?, user*)> - -5.2.3. CS:allowed-sharing-modes Property - - Name: allowed-sharing-modes - - Namespace: http://calendarserver.org/ns/ - - Purpose: Used to show which modes of sharing are supported on a - calendar collection. - - Protected: This property MUST be protected. - - PROPFIND behavior: This property SHOULD NOT be returned by a - PROPFIND allprop request (as defined in Section 14.2 of - [RFC4918]). - - - - -Daboo & York [Page 8] - - CalDAV Sharing and Publishing September 2012 - - - COPY/MOVE behavior: This property value MUST be preserved in COPY - and MOVE operations. - - Description: This WebDAV property is present on a calendar - collection resource that can been shared or published. It - provides a list of options indicating what sharing modes are - allowed as per Section 5.5.2. - - Definition: - - <!ELEMENT allowed-sharing-modes - (can-be-shared?, can-be-published?)> - -5.2.4. CS:shared-url Property - - Name: shared-url - - Namespace: http://calendarserver.org/ns/ - - Purpose: Indicates the URL of the owner's copy of a shared calendar. - - Protected: This property MUST be protected. - - PROPFIND behavior: This property SHOULD NOT be returned by a - PROPFIND allprop request (as defined in Section 14.2 of - [RFC4918]). - - COPY/MOVE behavior: This property value MUST be preserved in COPY - and MOVE operations. - - Description: This WebDAV property is present on a shared calendar - collection resource that appears in a sharee's calendar home - collection. Its content is a single DAV:href element whose value - is the URL of the sharer's calendar being shared. - - Definition: - - <!ELEMENT shared-url (DAV:href)> - -5.3. Sharer Actions on Shared Calendars - -5.3.1. Sharing or Unsharing a Calendar - - To update an existing calendar to be shared, the sharer simply adds - one or more sharees to the calendar collection as per Section 5.3.2. - The server MUST update the DAV:resourcetype property on the calendar - collection to ensure it contains a CS:shared-owner XML element to - indicate the calendar collection is now shared. - - - -Daboo & York [Page 9] - - CalDAV Sharing and Publishing September 2012 - - - To unshare a calendar, the sharer simply removes all sharees to the - CS:invite property of the calendar collection as per Section 5.3.2. - The server MUST update the DAV:resourcetype property on the calendar - collection to ensure it does not contain a CS:shared-owner XML - element to indicate the calendar collection is not shared. - -5.3.2. Manipulating Sharees of a Shared Calendar - - The sharer of a shared calendar is able to manipulate the sharee list - by issuing a POST request targeted at the calendar collection - resource. The POST request MUST contain an XML document as its body - with the root element being CS:share (Section 6.26). - - The CS:share (Section 6.26) element in the POST requests MUST contain - one or more CS:set (Section 6.27) or CS:remove (Section 6.28) - elements. For each CS:set (Section 6.27) element, the server MUST - add the specified sharee access to the calendar. For each CS:remove - (Section 6.28) element the server MUST remove the specified sharee - access from the shared calendar. In each case the server MUST send a - notification message to any sharees whose status is changed (added, - modified or removed), indicating to them a change in status for the - shared calendar. The server SHOULD NOT send notification messages to - sharees whose status is unchanged. - - Sharee's are identified via a DAV:href element whose value is either - a principal-URL for a sharee hosted on the same server, a calendar - user address or email address. In the case of the later two, the - sharee might not be a user on the same server - though in that case - how invitations are sent or access enabled is out of scope for this - specification. A server MAY change the sharee's "address" to any - suitable alternative that it might prefer when returning the list of - sharees via the CS:invite property (Section 5.2.2). - - The client MAY include a CS:common-name (Section 6.19) element in the - CS:set (Section 6.27) element. When provided, the value represents - the common name for the sharee, and is returned in the list of - sharees via the CS:invite property (Section 5.2.2). The server MAY - change this to a suitable alternative when it is able to match the - sharee to a known user. If absent from the client request, the - server SHOULD add a CS:common-name when it is able to match the - sharee with a known user, and a common name for that user can be - determined. - - When the sharee list on a shared calendar is changed, the server MUST - send notifications to each sharee to update them on their current - sharing status. This is accomplished by sending a CS:invite- - notification (Section 6.15) notification to each sharee. - - - - -Daboo & York [Page 10] - - CalDAV Sharing and Publishing September 2012 - - -5.3.2.1. Example: Successful Sharee Add Request - - This example shows how to add a single sharee (with calendar user - address "mailto:eric@example.com") to a shared calendar with CS:read- - write access. - - >> Request << - - POST /calendars/users/cyrus/shared/ HTTP/1.1 - Host: calendar.example.com - Content-Type: application/xml; charset="utf-8" - Content-Length: xxxx - - <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> - <CS:share xmlns:D="DAV:" - xmlns:CS="http://calendarserver.org/ns/"> - <CS:set> - <D:href>mailto:eric@example.com</D:href> - <CS:common-name>Eric York</CS:common-name> - <CS:summary>Shared workspace</CS:summary> - <CS:read-write /> - </CS:set> - </CS:share> - - >> Response << - - HTTP/1.1 200 OK - Cache-Control: no-cache - Date: Sat, 11 Nov 2006 09:32:12 GMT - -5.3.2.2. Example: Successful Multiple Sharee Change Request - - This example shows how multiple sharee's can be manipulated in a - single request. The sharee with calendar user address - "mailto:eric@example.com" has their access downgraded to CS:read, - whilst another sharee is removed from the access list entirely. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Daboo & York [Page 11] - - CalDAV Sharing and Publishing September 2012 - - - >> Request << - - POST /calendars/users/cyrus/shared/ HTTP/1.1 - Host: calendar.example.com - Content-Type: application/xml; charset="utf-8" - Content-Length: xxxx - - <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> - <CS:share xmlns:D="DAV:" - xmlns:CS="http://calendarserver.org/ns/"> - <CS:set> - <D:href>mailto:eric@example.com</D:href> - <CS:summary>Shared workspace</CS:summary> - <CS:read-write /> - </CS:set> - <CS:remove> - <D:href>mailto:wilfredo@example.com</D:href> - </CS:remove> - </CS:share> - - >> Response << - - HTTP/1.1 200 OK - Cache-Control: no-cache - Date: Sat, 11 Nov 2006 09:32:12 GMT - -5.4. Sharee Actions on Shared Calendars - -5.4.1. Replying to a Sharing Invite - - When a sharee is invited to a shared calendar they can accept or - decline the invite by issuing a POST request to the sharee's calendar - home collection resource. The POST request MUST contain an XML - document as its body with the root element being CS:invite-reply - (Section 6.22). - - The CS:invite-reply (Section 6.22) element in the POST request - specifies the sharee who is replying in the DAV:href element, the - accept or decline action via the CS:invite-accepted or CS:invite- - declined elements, the URL of the shared calendar in the CS:hosturl - element, the unique identifier of the invite to which it is a reply - in the CS:in-reply-to element, and an optional CS:summary element. - - The response to a POST request that accepts a shared calendar invite - MUST be an XML document containing CS:shared-as (Section 6.29) as its - root element. That root element contains a single DAV:href element - whose content is the URI of the shared calendar in the sharee's - calendar home created by the invite acceptance. - - - -Daboo & York [Page 12] - - CalDAV Sharing and Publishing September 2012 - - - When the sharee replies to an invite, the server SHOULD send a - notification to the sharer to update them on the change in the sharee - state. This is accomplished by sending a CS:invite-reply - (Section 6.22) notification to the sharer. - -5.4.2. Removing a Shared Calendar - - To remove a shared calendar from a sharee's calendar home collection - a DELETE request is targeted at the shared calendar URI. When such a - request is received the server MUST remove the shared calendar from - the sharee's calendar home and automatically update the sharee's - status in the sharer's calendar's CS:invite property. - -5.5. General Considerations - -5.5.1. Access Levels - - Two levels of access ca be granted by a sharer to any sharee. These - are governed by the CS:access element used in the CS:invite/CS:user - element that specifies a shared user invite. CS:access contains a - single empty element that defines the type of access granted: - - CS:read When present this indicates that sharees can read calendar - data but cannot change it. - - CS:read-write When present this indicates that sharees can read and - write calendar data. - -5.5.2. Allowing or Disallowing Sharing - - Servers MAY support calendar sharing on a per-calendar basis - e.g., - they could treat some calendars as always private (cannot be shared) - or always public (always shared). As a result clients need a way to - determine which calendar could be shared so they can enable or - disable sharing options on a per-calendar basis. - - This specification adds a CS:allowed-sharing-modes (Section 5.2.3) - WebDAV property which servers can return on calendar collection - resources. This property contains XML elements that describe which - sharing or publishing capabilities can be supported by the - corresponding calendar collection: - - CS:can-be-shared (Section 6.3): when present indicates that the - calendar collection can be shared. When not present, the calendar - collection cannot be shared. - - CS:can-be-published (Section 6.4): when present indicates that the - calendar collection can be published. When not present, the - - - -Daboo & York [Page 13] - - CalDAV Sharing and Publishing September 2012 - - - calendar collection cannot be published. - - When not present on a calendar collection, sharing or publishing of - that calendar is not allowed. Clients SHOULD NOT attempt to use - requests to enable sharing or publishing targeted at those calendar - collections. - -5.5.3. Per-user WebDAV Properties - - Servers MUST support "per-user" WebDAV properties on shared calendar - collections and MAY support them on calendar object resources within - shared calendar collections. A "per-user" WebDAV property is one - whose value can be set and retrieved independently by each user with - appropriate access rights. e.g., user "A" changes the DAV:displayname - property on a shared calendar in their calendar home to "My - calendar", and user "B" changes the same property to "Shared" on the - same shared calendar in their calendar home. When each user - retrieves the property value they will see their own last stored - value and not the value of the other user. - - For shared calendars, the server MUST allow all users to write "per- - user" WebDAV properties on the shared calendar collection and MAY - allow property writes on calendar object resources within the shared - calendar collection. This is required even in the case where the - sharee has been granted read access only (i.e., the ability to change - calendar data is disallowed). This requirement ensures that sharees - can always change "personal" properties such as calendar colors and - display names. - - Servers MUST treat the following properties as "per-user": - - DAV:displayname - - CALDAV:calendar-description - - CALDAV:schedule-calendar-transp - - ICAL:calendar-color - - Servers MAY treat any dead property as per-user. - - Servers MUST NOT treat live properties as per-user. - -5.5.4. Per-user Calendar Data - - Servers MUST support "per-user" calendar data in calendar object - resources stored in shared calendars. This allows each sharee and - the sharer to store their own alarms and free busy transparency - - - -Daboo & York [Page 14] - - CalDAV Sharing and Publishing September 2012 - - - status without "interfering" with other users who also have access to - the same calendar object resources. - - For calendaring object resources in shared calendar collections, the - server MUST treat the following iCalendar data objects as per-user: - - TRANSP property - - VALARM component - - Servers MAY treat any non-standard X- iCalendar properties as per- - user. - - When handling per-user data in recurring components, servers SHOULD - eliminate overridden instances when returning iCalendar data to - clients in the case where there are no differences between the - overridden component and the instance that could be derived from the - "master" recurrence component. For example, consider a daily - recurring event, Monday through Friday, initially defined without any - overridden instances, that is in a shared calendar. If user "A" - overrides the Tuesday instance and adds their own "VALARM" component - only, then when user "A" later retrieves the data again they would - see that overridden instance, but when user "B" does so, they would - not. This ensures that each user sees the most "compact" - representation of the calendar data. - -5.5.5. Scheduling - - CalDAV Scheduling [RFC6638] defines how a CalDAV server carries out - scheduling operations when calendar object resources are created, - modified or deleted and include "ORGANIZER" and "ATTENDEE" iCalendar - properties. - - When calendar object resources are created, modified or deleted in - shared calendars by sharees, the following restrictions apply: - - 1. The "ORGANIZER" iCalendar property value in the iCalendar data - MUST match a calendar user address of the sharer (owner) of the - shared calendar. The DAV:owner WebDAV property MUST be present - on a shared calendar and MUST provide a reference to a principal- - URL of the sharer (owner) of the shared calendar. Clients can - use this value to determine what the allowed "ORGANIZER" - iCalendar property values are. The server MUST reject any - attempt by a sharee to create an iCalendar component with an - "ORGANIZER" property value other than the sharer (owner) of the - shared calendar. - - - - - -Daboo & York [Page 15] - - CalDAV Sharing and Publishing September 2012 - - - 2. The server MUST reject any attempt by a sharee to MOVE a calendar - object resource in a shared calendar to some other collection. - - 3. When a sharee is listed as an Attendee in a calendar object - resource in a shared calendar, and write access is granted, the - sharee is allowed to change not only iCalendar data related to - the Organizer, but also data related to the Attendee. i.e., a - sharee can change their own participation status on the - "ATTENDEE" iCalendar property referring to them. Additionally, - if the sharee is not listed as an Attendee, and write access is - granted, the sharee can add themselves as an Attendee. - - 4. The default calendar collection defined in Section 6.3 of - [RFC6638] MUST NOT be a calendar shared to the corresponding - calendar user. - - Following are additional considerations for scheduling with shared - calendars: - - 1. A scheduled iCalendar component could appear in more than one - calendar collection within a sharee's calendar home if the sharee - is an Attendee and the Organizer or other Attendees have shared a - calendar with the sharee that includes their copies of the - iCalendar component. It is important to note that the scheduled - component in the shared calendar could have different access - rights than the one in the sharee's owned calendar. - - 2. A scheduled iCalendar component appearing in a sharee's shared - calendar could include the sharee as an Attendee. For recurring - events, it is possible for the sharee to only be listed as an - Attendee in some instances, as opposed to all. Clients will need - to be aware of this when allowing sharee's to set their own - participation status. - - In addition, when a shared calendar is first accepted by a sharee, - the server SHOULD set the CALDAV:schedule-calendar-transp property to - the value CALDAV:transparent to ensure newly accepted shared - calendars do not contribute to the sharee's freebusy time until the - sharee explicitly requests it. - - -6.
