[Owncloud] Automatically do a daily import of ics file

Hi all

My company does not allow to sync my work calendar from externally.
But what I can do is to periodically export my calendar from M$ Outlook to a WebDAV 
location.
This works fine with OwnCloud.

Also I am able to import the file to the calendar on OC5.0.4.
(On OC4.5 it does not work due this bug: 
https://github.com/owncloud/apps/issues/757)

Now, what I want to do is to automate a daily import of the ics file.
I am planning to write a simple script which gets called by Cron and when ever it 
detects an update of the ics file, it will drop the calendar content and import the new 
ics file.

I know that others tried to do this before, but did not get an answer:

Can anybody give a hint where to look at for the right commands?

George
