Google Calendar Overview#

The Google Calendar API lets you dip into the powerhouse of scheduling, allowing for the reading, creation, and manipulation of events and calendars directly from your applications. Through Pipedream, you can seamlessly integrate Google Calendar into a myriad of workflows, automating event management, syncing with other services, setting up custom reminders, or even collating data for reporting. The key here is to streamline your calendar-related processes, ensuring that your time management is as efficient and automated as possible.

Trigger Code#

import common from "../common/common.mjs";
import sampleEmit from "./test-event.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "google_calendar-event-cancelled",
  name: "New Cancelled Event",
  description: "Emit new event when a Google Calendar event is cancelled or deleted",
  version: "0.1.10",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  props: {
    ...common.props,
    calendarId: {
      propDefinition: [
        common.props.googleCalendar,
        "calendarId",
      ],
    },
  },
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getConfig({
      intervalMs, now,
    }) {
      const updatedMin = new Date(now.getTime() - intervalMs).toISOString();
      return {
        calendarId: this.calendarId,
        updatedMin,
        showDeleted: true,
        singleEvents: true,
        orderBy: "startTime",
      };
    },
    isRelevant(event) {
      return event.status === "cancelled";
    },
  },
  sampleEmit,
};

Trigger Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Google Calendar	`googleCalendar`	`app`	This component uses the Google Calendar app.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
Calendar ID	`calendarId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

Google Calendar uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Google Calendar account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Google Calendar and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Google Calendar API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:

https://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar.eventshttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar.readonlyhttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar.settings.readonly

Google Tasks Overview#

The Google Tasks API allows you to manage and manipulate a user's tasks and task lists on Google Tasks directly from Pipedream. With this API, you can create, read, update, and delete tasks, as well as manage the lists themselves. This opens up possibilities for automating task management, syncing tasks with other systems, and creating custom task-based workflows that can increase productivity and ensure nothing falls through the cracks.
