How to Import .ics file using the provided method "ImportICalendar" in "EjsSchedule"

[Tom]

Please could someone provide an example to show how to Import an ics ICalendar file for events in the Scheduler control?

This is missing from the documentation under Scheduler.

I can see there is meant to be support for it here "https://ej2.syncfusion.com/blazor/documentation/schedule/" under Export/Import, and the method ImportICalendar exists but there is no documentation for Import - Only Export has a page of examples.

This is what I have attempted, I can see the method only accepts "Blob objects" from the method description - Could you give an example of how to convert a .ics file from a Steam/Byte array into the required format?

As expected it throws an error saying this:

Thank you,

Tom
