What is a .JCAL file?
JCAL is a JSON form of an iCalendar event, defined by RFC 7265.
- Did you know
- jCal carries calendar data as JSON for easy use in web apps.
- jCal is defined by RFC 7265 and was produced by the IETF working group that also created the JSON form of vCard.
- jCal is designed to round-trip, so converting an iCalendar file to jCal and back preserves every component and property.
- What Analyser reads
- Identify and read more email, calendar and contact files: Outlook for Mac archives (.olm) and templates (.oft), S/MIME .p7m/.p7s, Mozilla Mork stores (.msf/.mab), Eudora/Outlook Express mailboxes (.mbx/.toc), phone backups (.vmg SMS, .vnt notes), XML/JSON iCalendar and vCard (.xcal/.jcal/.xcard/.jcard), LDIF (.ldi) and legacy address books (.pab/.wab/.abbu).
- Depth of analysis
- .JCAL is an identification-grade format: Analyser recognises it from its bytes and decodes the header metadata it carries, rather than opening it in a full viewer. Formats that do get a full viewer are marked "Full" on the formats page.
- Open a .JCAL file
- Drag a .JCAL file onto the Analyser home page (or tap to pick one). It is identified entirely in your browser - nothing is uploaded, there is no account, and it works offline once installed.
