      Issue Summary

      When a Calendar in Confluence is being exported into ICS file, Jira Event Types are being exported as X-EVENT-SERIES.
      Importing ICS file with multiple Jira Event Types would only import the first event type, where the rest are omitted.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Install Confluence DC
      2. Configure Application Links between the Confluence with another Jira
      3. Create a new Calendar in Team Calendar
      4. Add multiple Jira Event Types into the calendar, linking to the Jira
      5. For testing, the Jira Event Types below are added to the calendar:
        • Jira Issue Dates
        • Jira Agile Sprints
        • Jira Project Releases
      6. Export the calendar into ICS file
        • Here's a sample of how the above 3 Jira Event Types will be exported into the ICS format:
          Excerpt of ICS export
          BEGIN:X-EVENT-SERIES
          SUMMARY:My Sample Kanban - Releases
          DESCRIPTION:
          X-CONFLUENCE-SUBCALENDAR-TYPE:jira-project-releases
          URL:jira://4a644012-8ec9-3888-8cb0-eb8677d51f6b?projectKey=MSK&dateFieldN
           ame=versiondue
          END:X-EVENT-SERIES
          BEGIN:X-EVENT-SERIES
          SUMMARY:My Sample Scrumz - Sprints
          DESCRIPTION:
          X-CONFLUENCE-SUBCALENDAR-TYPE:jira-agile-sprint
          URL:jira://4a644012-8ec9-3888-8cb0-eb8677d51f6b?projectKey=MSS&dateFieldN
           ame=sprint
          END:X-EVENT-SERIES
          BEGIN:X-EVENT-SERIES
          SUMMARY:My Sample Projekt - Issues
          DESCRIPTION:
          X-CONFLUENCE-SUBCALENDAR-TYPE:jira
          URL:jira://4a644012-8ec9-3888-8cb0-eb8677d51f6b?projectKey=MSP&dateFieldN
           ame=duedate
          END:X-EVENT-SERIES
          
      7. Import the ICS file above back into Confluence

      Expected Results

      All of the same events from the exporting calendar shows up in the imported calendar.

      Actual Results

      Only the first Jira Event Type is imported, where the rest are omitted.

      Workaround

      Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
