Calendars

Create, update, delete, and query calendars in Google.

Table-Specific Information

Select

When selecting calendars no fields are required. In addition an Id can be specified for filtering the result. For example:

SELECT Id, Summary, Description FROM Calendars

Insert

To insert a new calendar, issue an INSERT statement and specify a value for at least the Summary column. For example:

INSERT INTO Calendars (Summary) VALUES ('My Custom Calendar')

To insert an existing calendar, a shared one or a global/domain public one, into the user's calendars list, you will need to execute an INSERT statement by specifying at least the existing CalendarId in the statement.

For example, to add a shared calendar from a specific user, you can execute a query as below.

INSERT INTO Calendars (Id) VALUES ('[email protected]')

For example, to add a public calendar, you can execute a query as below.

INSERT INTO Calendars (id, SummaryOverride) VALUES ('en.usa#[email protected]', 'Official Holidays in the US')

Update

To update a calendar, the Id column must be specified. Only the Description, Location, Summary, and Timezone columns are updateable. For example:

UPDATE Calendars SET Description = 'Updated Description' WHERE Id = '8ba774m3anenroqcepfi7ka6ok'

Delete

Delete a calendar by specifying its Id. For example:

DELETE FROM Calendars WHERE Id = '123456789'
