Calendar payload settings for Apple devices
Use the Calendar payload to provide account settings for connecting to a CalDAV-compliant calendar server. These accounts will be added to iPhone, iPad and Mac devices enrolled in a mobile device management (MDM) solution. As with Exchange accounts, users need to manually enter information you omit from the profile, such as their account password, when the profile is installed.
