Thank you in advance for your help!
We have a CRM system that allows users to sync their Calendars using the Calendar API. The application ID of the Calendar project is not associated with our GSuite organization and we have not been able to troubleshoot the account. The calendar application was created using a non-company email address through GSuite and we no longer have access to the application. Our company is approved by Google for the Restricted Scope after an audit by Leviathan.
We are trying to receive help from Google Support and submitted a ticket through https://support.google.com/googleone/contact/googleone_chat but are not getting anywhere and were told to come to Stackoverflow.
This is an access issue with the project being assigned to a non-organization user and we need to have the Calendar project moved to our existing GSuite organization with the help of the proper department.
There's a 2-step solution that we need assistance with. The first step is to ask for Google's help to identify which email the Calendar API project is part of. The second step is for Google to move the project to our GSuite Organization.
Our users are seeing this message when syncing their CRM Calendar
Our users are currently unable to sync their calendars. This is very important that our clients are able to sync their calendar without seeing an error.
Thank you,
Dimitri

So lets say i have a meeting/event in which i want only those users which are in my workspace to be able to attend the meeting.
So i want to devise a way which connects their slack and google calendar or google meet or any other application.
When they try to access that event meeting link ( if its happening from google calendar/meet or any other app ), slack should authenticate them. so if they are present in my workspace they should be given access otherwise no
Update:-
The users are not part of organization so they all will be using their personal email.
Basically you can sync the Slack and Google Calendar, to do this:
1.) Add the Google Calendar app to Slack.
2.) Connect your Google Calendar to Slack.
For more details refer to this link: Google Calendar for Slack
About the Access:
Take note Google Calendar and Google Meet are two different Google Apps. As for those who are able to access the meeting link it has nothing to do with the Google Calendar. You can set the Google Meet Settings reference in your Google Admin Console:
Google Meet settings reference for admins
Update:
i have a question the users who are going to join this meeting are not from my organization, they can anyone but they should be someone from my slack workspace.
Unfortunately there is no way you can do it since technically as a default anyone with the Google Meet link can ask to join and the event organizer will either allow or deny. You can only set the permission according to the 3 options in the screenshot above (Meet Safety Settings).
Refer to the link below:
Join a Meeting
If you want to integrate and authenticate Slack with Google Calendar, maybe it can be done with API configuration. Here is the API link:
Integrate the Google Calendar API with the Slack API
I am an admin on two Google Workspaces. I am looking for a way to sync both organizations' calendars so that a user from workspace A can hop into a calendar of any user from workspace B and schedule a meeting in his free time. Scouring the API more and more I am losing hope. Am I missing something?
Thanks

Description:
We are trying to share a calendar with a service account.
We created a project and a Service Account (for said project) on the Google Developers Console. Then we tried sharing a calendar with this Service Account ID email
I noticed google service accounts have a domain of the form iam.gserviceaccount.com so we can't share a calendar from one of our company's account
Our company's policy dictates we shouldn't set the 'external sharing options' to other than 'sharing busy/free' but we need more data. As stated in the previous paragraph, we can't share the calendar with our internal service account because of the domain mismatch
Is there a way to accomplish this?
I found a workaround:
First create a calendar in the service account (with the API)
Then share the calendar with the organization (with the API)
Export/Import the events of the existing calendar (remove old)
Now you can access the calendar through the API, and edit it in the organization's accounts
Some time ago, I created a Google Calendar at calendar.google.com using Chrome Browser, and made it public. This was a calendar in addition to the default calendar provided with every Google identity - let's call it calendarX. I then sync'd calendarX with my Thunderbird (Lightning) client, and am still using it today with Thunderbird, to create & view events.
I now need to know the address of calendarX, so that I can share the link with others. So I logged into calendar.google.com with (what I thought were) the credentials of the calendar owner - but calendarX is missing, no reference to it at all.
So maybe I used some other Google identity to create the calendar?
The only clue I have is the calendar properties in Thunderbird (Lightning). It shows:
googleapi://MYEMAIL#MYDOMAIN/?calendar=MYDOMAIN_dq0l2urbXXXXlj9gcn5o2en1bc%40group.calendar.google.com
Doesn't MYEMAIL#MYDOMAIN imply the ownership of calendarX? That's the Google identity I have checked, and calendarX does NOT appear when I log into calendar.google.com with that identity. The default calendar is there, but not calendarX.
So maybe it's owned by some other identity? How can I find out?
Or how can I find the address of calendarX?
Google Calendars can be found by simply logging in your CORRECT email address which was used to create it. There's no tricky process in that. Just make sure it's your email address and not a service account that was used.
As an Admin of the GSuite system, you can add any calendar to your own account. If you can find the calendar ID from a user who has access to the calendar by going into the calendar settings is the way I did it, you can just add the calendar to your account using the calendar ID URL, once it is in your account as a super admin you can see who created the calendar and you can change who has access and the rights. Very simple but not documented anywhere I could find.
My scenario is the following: We currently own an online rental marketplace that uses peer to peer bookings just like Airbnb. This means each user has a calendar for their property.We have a Vaway calendar for the bookings on our site however are wanting to integrate google calendar so we can be able to 2 way sync/asynchronous all the Ical calendars to each other from our partner sites who support it.
After much research I have tested my personal google calendar to see how the iCal works and it seems to work perfectly so we decided this architecture would need to be implemented on a much larger scale. This would be used in all new users signups to give our users an all in one calendar that syncs all our Partner sites into one completely synced google calendar for their listing. This basically allows a user who has their listing on 7 different platforms to sync to one calendar showing availability for them to keep track of inside Vaway account.
The google calendar would be completely separate from our Vaway calendar specifically to allow our users to sync all their property bookings from other sites into one integrated calendar.. The problem when reading about google calendar API is it requires OAuth 2.0 which is required user sign in from their existing google account (Calendar, Gmail...etc). Many of our users and new signups will not have google accounts and we do not want them to have to go through a google signup process to log into their calendar. Is there any way around OAuth 2.0? We really just need the functionality of the google calendar and its syncing capabilities inside our dashboard to give read write permission and sync back and forth 2 way with other calendars on other platforms.
With all of the features the google calendar has it seems to be perfect for what we are doing when testing. Each user that signs up with us will have google calendar in their Vaway dashboard provided by vaway however they will manage their own google calendar inside the Vaway platform for their property bookings. All calendars events/bookings would be public to allow the Ical syncing option to push through.
We do not want the users accessing this calendar outside of the platform because the pulls them away from the site. I'm not sure what solution would best suit this business model and am totally at my wits end here after researching. We are trying to keep our overhead low so google apps marketplace is not an option.
You really should reformulate your question, because it's really hard to read and understand right now.
But if I really get your question, you want to enable managing google calendar from a personal application without the end user having to log to any google personal account.
If this is clearly what you want to do, I suggest you to have a look to Service Account with OAuth2.0.
(See here : https://developers.google.com/accounts/docs/OAuth2#serviceaccount)
It will provide a service account for your application, from which you will be able to handle calendars for your app.
And here you will find a sample showing how to do it with Java. (https://code.google.com/p/google-api-java-client/wiki/OAuth2#Service_Accounts)
