Any way to add the Cavs season schedule to Google Calendar without giving the NBA full read/write access to all of my personal calendars?



The only easy way to add the Cavs season schedule to my Google calendar that I’ve found is through the cavs website and NBA.com. (https://www.nba.com/cavaliers/schedule) But when I click “Add to Calendar” it asks me to grant read & write access to an application called “ECAL” for all calendars I can access using Google Calendar. This is super intrusive and waaay broader than the permissions needed to simply add season games to calendar.

There used to be an easy way to add any NBA team’s schedule to my calendar directly in Google calendar, but that option seems to be no longer available.

Does anyone have a less intrusive alternative? And if anyone from the Cavs org sees this, can you please fix this glaring invasion of the privacy of your fans? Thx!

    Manually? It’s only 82 games. Or just look at the one Google provides.

    UPDATE: You can export the calendar as an ics file if you choose “other calendar” in the list of files, which doesn’t grant read/writer permissions.
