}'MCP servers expose Google Calendar actions as on-demand tools.
New Created or Updated Event (Instant) is an event source, so your application deploys it
with the Connect SDK or API and then either receives each event at a
webhook URL or retrieves events on demand with the trigger events API.MCP exposes on-demand actions. Event sources are deployed through the Connect SDK or API because they continue listening after the initial request.
SCHEMA
Configuration
These inputs define which events the source watches. Dynamic options are loaded from the connected account.
| Property | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
calendarIds Calendars | string[] | Select one or more calendars to watch (defaults to the primary calendar) Optional Dynamic |
newOnly Emit only for new events | boolean | Emit new events only, and not updates to existing events (defaults to false) Optional |
timer Push notification renewal schedule | $.interface.timer | The Google Calendar API requires occasional renewal of push notification subscriptions. This runs in the background, so you should not need to modify this schedule. Required |
LIFECYCLE
Event delivery
01
Connect
Your user authorizes Google Calendar through Pipedream managed auth.
02
Deploy
Your backend deploys this source with that user's own configuration.
03
Webhook delivery
Every event is sent to the HTTP endpoint you choose when you deploy the source — after each poll.
OR
On-demand retrieval
No webhook required. Your app or agent can fetch recent events from the trigger events API.
