Parameter Name

LABEL

Purpose

To provide a human-readable label.

Format Definition

This property parameter is defined by the following notation:

 labelparam = "LABEL" "=" param-value

Description

This property parameter MAY be specified on the "CONFERENCE" property. It is anticipated that other extensions to iCalendar will reuse this property parameter on new properties that they define. As a result, clients MUST expect to find this property parameter present on many different properties. It provides a human-readable label that can be presented to calendar users to allow them to discriminate between properties that might be similar or provide additional information for properties that are not self-describing. The "LANGUAGE" property parameter can be used to specify the language of the text in the parameter value (as per Section 3.2.10 of [RFC5545]).

Example

 CONFERENCE;VALUE=URI;FEATURE=VIDEO;
  LABEL="Web video chat, access code=76543";
  :https://video-chat.example.com/;group-id=1234
