Overview

The Google Calendar Connector provides the capability to manage events and calendar operations. It also provides the capability to support service account authorization that can provide delegated domain-wide access to the GSuite domain and support admins to do operations on behalf of the domain users.

This module supports Google Calendar API V3.

Prerequisites

Before using this connector in your Ballerina application, complete the following:

1. Create a Google account.
2. Obtain tokens - Follow the steps here to obtain tokens.

Quickstart

To use the Google Calendar connector in your Ballerina application, update the .bal file as follows:

Step 1: Import connector

Import the ballerinax/googleapis.calendar module into the Ballerina project.

import ballerinax/googleapis.calendar;

Step 2: Create a new connector instance

Create a calendar:ConnectionConfig with the OAuth2.0 tokens obtained and initialize the connector with it.

calendar:ConnectionConfig config = {
    auth: {
        clientId: <CLIENT_ID>,
        clientSecret: <CLIENT_SECRET>
        refreshToken: <REFRESH_TOKEN>,
        refreshUrl: <REFRESH_URL>,
    }
};

calendar:Client calendarClient = check new(config);

Step 3: Invoke connector operation

1. Now you can use the operations available within the connector. Note that they are in the form of remote operations.
   Following is an example on how to create quick event using the connector.

   string calendarId = "primary";
   string title = "Sample Event";
   
   public function main() returns error? {
       calendar:Event response = check calendarClient->quickAddEvent(calendarId, title);
   }

2. Use bal run command to compile and run the Ballerina program.
