    Username: Your RelaNet Cloud username or email

    Password: Your generated app-password/token

    Server Address: URL of your RelaNet Cloud server (e.g. https://cloud.example.com)

For CalDAV (Calendar): You can now select, with which applications you want to use this resource. In the most cases, this will be the “Calendar” application, sometimes you may also want to use it for your Tasks and reminders.

Troubleshooting

  • macOS does not support syncing CalDAV/CardDAV over non-encrypted http:// connections. Make sure you have https:// enabled and configured on server- and client-side.

  • Self-signed certificates need to be properly set up in the macOS keychain.
