Works with Brightspace + Apple Calendar

Turn your Brightspace syllabus into Apple Calendar in seconds.

Brightspace has a calendar feed but getting it into Apple Calendar takes more steps than it should. SyllabusAI handles it — paste your syllabus or subscribe via your Brightspace iCal URL, and every deadline syncs to your iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

How it works

Three steps. Done.

No account. No setup. Two ways to import — paste the syllabus text or use your Brightspace iCal URL. Either way it ends up in Apple Calendar.

📋

Grab your Brightspace content

Copy syllabus text from your Brightspace course, or open the Calendar widget → Subscribe → "Subscribe to Calendar" to get your ICS URL.

Paste and parse

Drop the text or iCal URL into SyllabusAI. Every exam, assignment, and deadline gets extracted and tagged in seconds.

📅

Subscribe in Apple Calendar

Open Apple Calendar → File → New Calendar Subscription and paste the URL. iCloud syncs it to iPhone, iPad, and Mac automatically.

Two ways to import

Pick whichever takes less effort.

The iCal URL method catches assignment due dates that aren't in the syllabus document. Paste-text is faster if you just need the course outline.

📄 Paste syllabus text

Open your Brightspace course, find the syllabus, copy all the text, and paste it into SyllabusAI. Works with table-format and narrative-format syllabi.

🔗 Use Brightspace iCal URL

FAQ

Brightspace + Apple Calendar questions.

Straight answers. No fluff.

Does this work with Brightspace and Apple Calendar?

Yes. Two ways: paste your Brightspace syllabus text, or use the Calendar widget Subscribe URL. Either way you get a .ics file you subscribe to in Apple Calendar — and it appears on every Apple device via iCloud.

Where do I find my Brightspace iCal subscribe URL?

In Brightspace, open the Calendar widget and click Subscribe. Then click "Subscribe to Calendar" and copy the URL shown. Paste that into SyllabusAI's iCal URL field.

How do I subscribe to a calendar in Apple Calendar?

On Mac: open Apple Calendar, go to File → New Calendar Subscription, paste the .ics URL, hit Subscribe. On iPhone or iPad: Settings → Calendar → Accounts → Add Account → Other → Add Subscribed Calendar, then paste the URL.

Will my iPhone sync the calendar automatically?

Yes. Subscribe once on any Apple device and iCloud pushes it to all of them. Your iPhone, iPad, and Mac all show the same Brightspace deadlines without any extra steps.

Does the calendar update when my professor changes the syllabus?

If you subscribed via an iCal URL, Apple Calendar periodically re-fetches it so changes appear automatically. If you imported a one-time .ics file, re-run SyllabusAI to pick up changes.

Is this free?

Yes. Free. No credit card, no trial period, no paywall. Paste your Brightspace syllabus, get your calendar events. Apple Calendar is also free and built into every Apple device.

Is my syllabus stored anywhere?

No. Your syllabus text is processed to extract dates and events, then discarded. We don't store, log, or sell your content.
