How can we get all the recurring events occurrences based on the series master event, from the Outlook Calendar API. We have similar kind of API in Google Calendar API, this is the link.
this is the API link and is working fine

I have implemented an API to return ICS event feed which contains nearly 20,000 events. When I create a new google calendar with this API as the URL, the calendar events doesn't sync to the google calendar and it shows empty. If I reduce the number of events in the API to about 1000, google calendar properly sync all the events and show it properly in the calendar.
I couldn't find any such limit for number of events mentioned in Google calendar documentation. Is there such a limit for number of events which can be sync from a feed url to Google Calendar?
Following screenshots shows how I added the feed URL to google calendar.
I would like to now if the following functionality is supported by google calendar api:
Does the functionality provided by "Push notifications" include new events or just existing ones. Here is a copy paste from the documentation that let me doubt that new event notifications are supported "The Google Calendar API provides push notifications that let you watch for changes to resources.". So does this only apply to already existing resources (events on my case).
Is there a way to limit the availability on the google calendar. By this I mean setting a general limit (i.e working hours for a company for example from 9am to 5pm). And putting the logic further, is there a way to add more constraints. For example after I receive a notification of a new event created (if this functionality is provided), I check the event's data in my web-hook and let google calendar know that this event shouldn't be considered as valid.
If these requirements are not provided already by google calendar API, I am open to any suggestions to accomplish this even if it takes more coding.
Just to make it clear. The context of these questions is when the user creates an event in their google calendar through google calendar web interface not through my application.
We have a shared calender and we want to find out who edited or deleted the event using google calender api. Is there anyway we can find out this?
You need Calendar audit log.
Track calendar notifications and view changes to your users’
calendars, events, and subscriptions
You can follow the steps provided to find out who have made changes in you public calendar.
Using the API, you can visit Calendar Activity Events.
I'm trying to fetch all events from a Google calendar using V3 API. I've noticed an issue regarding recurring events.
For some recurring events, on some calendars, only the first instances are fetched (for example - first 5 out of total of 8 instances are fetched).
Few additional details:
I've double checked that the query date-range is correct.
Problem occurred few times - for different Google Apps organizations.
Problem occurs also if I try to fetch the events from the calendar of the event creator.
We are using Google's python library for fetching.
Any inputs will be appreciated. Thanks!
You should set the "singleEvents" flag to True when calling the the API's 'list' command.
From the API documentation:
Whether to expand recurring events into instances and only return single one-off events and instances of recurring events, but not the underlying recurring events themselves. Optional. The default is False.
I've been able to programmatically develop a 2 way sync between my Fullcalendar and my Google Calendar using php and javascript. My fullcalendar displays events from a Mysql database as well as events from Google calendar.
The problem I am having is that my when my mysql fullcalendar events load into my Google calendar, I then see the mysql events 2x on my fullcalendar...one from mysql and then the one coming back from Google. I need to continue displaying the event created by mysql and discontinue displaying the google events....but only the google events that originated from mysql.
In essense I need to filter out the Google Calendar events that originated from my database, but display google calendar events that were entered manually into the Google Calendar.
When I send the mysql events to google, I currentlty store the returned google calendar id, $gcal_id = $createdEvent->getId() into mysql. My intent is to read the google api callback and filter out the gCal$uid's that match the id's I stored in mysql.
I cannot figure out how to access the gCal$uid values found in the google api callback, and then compare them to an array of id's pulled from the database.
Any ideas or code snippets would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
I attacked the problem from a different angle and was able to solve the problem of duplicate entries appearing on my fullcalendar.
As the calendar loads each event, i compare the events id, (minus the #google), to the gcal ids I stored in the database in FullCalendar's "eventAfterRender". If I get a match I use FullCalendar's 'removeEvents' to remove the duplicate event from the Calendar.
I'm having inconsistant results. The process will work several times in a row then all of a sudden stop working. I'm still troubleshooting although it's difficult due to the lack of documentation for PHP.
Anyways, the incoming to FullCalendar from Google Calendar is a breeze compared to the outgoing to google calendar.
For the incoming you need to provide instructions to the user on how to attain their Public or Private XML feedk. The steps to get the Public XML are detailed here http://arshaw.com/fullcalendar/docs/google_calendar/
To get the Private XML just don't make your calendar public and then click the XML button in the Private section.
There are some other steps but they are all detailed in the link the provided.
I'll provide more detailed info on the outgoing sync to google once I get it all worked out
BTW- why can't you send me a private message. Is there something I need to change in my stackoverflow settings?
