In the Power-Ups menu, search for “iCalendar” and click on the iCalendar Power-Up. Enable it for your board by clicking on the “Enable” button. Once enabled, you’ll see a new iCalendar option in the board menu.

Step 2: Generate the iCalendar URL

Now that the iCalendar Power-Up is enabled, we need to generate the iCalendar URL for your Trello board. To do this, click on the iCalendar option in the board menu. A dialog box will appear with the iCalendar URL.

Copy the iCalendar URL to your clipboard. This URL is unique to your Trello board and will be used to sync your Trello board with iCal.

With the iCalendar URL copied, open your iCal application on your computer. In iCal, go to the “File” menu and select “New Calendar Subscription”. A dialog box will appear.

In the dialog box, paste the iCalendar URL that you copied from Trello into the “Calendar URL” field. Click on the “Subscribe” button to continue.

You can customize the settings for your subscription, such as the name of the calendar and the refresh frequency. Once you’re satisfied with the settings, click on the “OK” button to complete the subscription.
