iCal feeds are a standard calendar format that allow you to get a feed from an online calendar. Before you can use them they must first be enabled by your Administrator and you must also have the Planner->iCAL Feed permission.
You should not share your iCal links. The iCal link has no authentication method so anyone with the link will see the underlying data. If you believe your iCal Feed URL has been compromised then please use the Reset URL link to generate a new URL.
iCal Feeds are obtained from the Shared and Private Planner Views as these define who and what you want to see. You need to get the iCAL Feed URL for the Planner View to use it with something like Gmail, Hotmail or Outlook.
