We have just recently switched our domain from Outlook/Exchange to Google Apps. In Outlook, our meeting invites that come from OoB Changes worked just fine. Once we switched to Google, our users were just receiving a blank email with an attached ICS file that Gmail wouldn't parse. We have an older instance and I found that the change.calendar.integration email template had this line with a variable that resolved to nothing.
PRIORITY:${priority}
I checked a clean personal developer instance, and I saw that they now hardcode it to this:
PRIORITY:3
After I changed that line on our template, Gmail now parses it, but it just has an "Add to Calendar" option instead of a "Yes, No, Maybe" RSVP.
Current State:
We noticed that without the RSVP, the invite does not get recognized on iPhones as a meeting request so it doesn't get automatically added to users' calendars. We are trying to get the Yes, No, Maybe options from an RSVP like this:
Desired State:
We are using the OoB change.calendar.integration template, which is:

Has anyone got this to work properly with Google specifically?
I tried again, with a little more care, and I had to delete two additional spaces at each line, and now it's working as expected, so, there seems to be the problem. Please, be carefull with the line formatting!
I see what you mean about the two extra characters. I removed them and tried emailing it again. It came out like this...
Why does it keep changing?
