• add (set to 1 to automatically add an event – be careful!)
• reminder (URL encoded)
• due (requires the format yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm)

• attendees (list of email addresses to invite, separate multipes with commas)
• availability (options: free, busy, tentative, unavailable)
• private (can be 1 or 0, only applies to Exchange calendars).

Note that if you use the sentence parameter it will cause other parameters to be ignored.

x-fantastical3://show?date=yyyy-mm-dd — Jumps to the specified date. You can also use a natural language date such as "Tuesday" or "next month" and Fantastical will do its best to show the date.

The parameters x-source, x-success, x-cancel, and x-error are all supported. Refer to the x-callback-url site for more details.
