    The pictures in this article are out of date and don't match the interface my officials currently see. To get their iCal feed, the button is found in the Settings tab under the Preferences sub-menu. That doesn't match the instructions provided here or the screenshots, which has caused confusion for my officials. Please keep your help articles up-to-date as you change the product(s).
