I use my Gmail address as my primary iCloud email address. When someone sends me an event invite to this email address, Gmail intercepts it and adds it to my Gmail calendar (which I don't use) instead of letting Apple Calendar handling it.
Do you know how I can tell Gmail to leave the event invites to iCloud?

You could also just not use, untick the calendar in your calendar apps.

Context
The company I work for is just now adopting a ticketing system for their IT help requests. Previously, all of our users have access to a Slack account and would start a message thread in an itsupport labeled channel to begin a "ticket". Now we would like users to send an email to an itsupport#company.com inbox which will then in turn create a ticket within the ticketing system. Since we know our end-users are going to still send Slack messages in the channel, I have been tasked with making an integration between Slack and a Google inbox designated for our help desk requests. The ticketing system is managed by an IT company we are contracted with, thus I am not the one integrating the Google Inbox and the ticketing system. I am only tasked with the integration between Slack and the mailing inbox.
Not sure if this context is needed, but I am currently using Node.js to capture the requests sent from Slack and then using Nodemailer to send the emails into the itsupport#company inbox.
Problem
The problem I have ran into (I found some questions related earlier but am having a hard time finding them now) is figuring out how to send an email on behalf on any user within our Google Workspace. For example, if Joe Schmo sends a message in the correct Slack channel, I would like to be able to send an email to the itsupport#company.com inbox as joe.schmo#company.com rather than my personal Google workspace account or through a generalized IT user account. How would I achieve this goal? I could change the "From" name however it would be preferred if I could send the email from any email address in our workspace.
Actually, our software sends an ICS file to the customer at the end of an action, representing an event, but we want to make an insertion on the customer Google Calendar. I want to make a Google Calendar invite by email with the ICS file (similar with the meeting invite from Google Meet).
I am trying to discover how the Calendly add automatically an event on my calendar with a email invite and without any extra permission. Furthermore, I was using the Google API to do that, but every request use a OAuth permission, this is unviable to a backend service. I think a ICS file have no power to do that action. So now, I have no clue to do that. What have I supposed to do?
I am sending some email notification to my users on some flights information. I see that Gmail is automatically creating events in Google Calendar based on the flight details provided in email. Is there any mail header property which I can mention so that Gmail does not create events based on data in mail. I know events creation can be stopped by changing some settings in users google calendar, but I want to control it at email level that I send across.
Thanks
I'm developing a ASP.NET application which integrates with GMail API and Google Calendar API. It uses a GSuite account to manage calendar events and e-mails.
Basically the application sends e-mails, invitations to people creating calendar events and, if an attendee declines the invitation, the application unsubscribes the user from the event and deletes the invitation.
The issue: everything works fine if the attendee uses GMail, else the declination is not received:
the attendee receives the invitation in GMail and selects "No" as response: the response is received
the attendee receives the invitation in another mail client and clicks the "No" link inside the mail: the response is received
the attendee receives the invitation in another mail client and rejects the invitation with any button provided by the mail client: the status in Google Calendar remains "awaiting response"
I found this behaviour using a standard GMail account too, so I suppose it does not depend on GSuite or my code. I googled a lot to see if this is a known issue, but I cannot find anything.
Does someone know if it is a known issue or there is any solution or any option to activate support for event responses?
Thank you very much for your help!
EDIT
I finally found the following:
the application creates a new calendar for managing its events -> invitations are managed as if they were from a different user and responses from attendees are sent to a xxxx_xxxxxxx#group.calendar.google.com e-mail address instead of the user's e-mail address, so no mail in GMail, no attendee status changed
using the primary calendar, I receive the event responses in GMail, but event attendee's status is not updated
with the second approach, I will try to take actions on new mail messages too.
As much as I can understand Google only supports responses to events using the "Yes", "No" and "Maybe" links in invitation e-mails, but what if a user uses a mail client like Outlook, etc.???
Please note that not all users are smart enough to understand that a link has to be clicked instead of buttons provided by mail clients and, anyway, I would expect that it works too.
We are implementing the DocuSign in our application. While signing the envelope in In-Person mode there is an window (popup) to send a copy of the document in an email.
We have entered the email but no email received. Checked settings in the DocuSign portal account but not able to find any setting for this.
Please let us know how to enable the save a copy email in DocuSign.
I would check settings on your side if you are not receiving the emails. Things like security software, spam/junk mail filters, firewalls, etc. that might stop the email from arriving. DocuSign is a widely used platform, if the emails weren't going out it would be publicly known very quickly, and I just tested this myself and I'm getting the emails. I might suggest you call their support department...
