YZY, There isn't a way that you can control the users calendar application to just import. It is up to the receiving end - the users application, to say how an ics file or url is treated on receipt. For example, in my desktop browser i have the default application for a .ics url/file set to be notepad++, not my calendar app. There is nothing you can do to override that.
How other applications such as email applications on smartphone or desktop treat it will depend on their settings as controlled by the user. EG: In outlook users may have unticked the 'automatically process meeting requests'
The only control the provider of the ics url/file has is to ensure that the file/url is specified correctly as per the latest specification (Note RFC5546 updates RFC5545, one needs to read both). Briefly:
I like to distinguish between 'import' and 'subscribe':
One could download a subscribeable .ics and 'import' it but then one would only ever have that frozen event/s as at that point in time, it would not ever update.
In summary the best you can do is provide the url correctly and offer some links to info on how to subscribe in case the users are unfamiliar with subscribing
