Services Plugins FAQs

Question about Google Calendar (Service Acc.)

Hi everyone! :wave:

Can I use this plugin to generate calendars that my users can subscribe to?

I noticed that when we create a new calendar, the plugin generates an e-mail with the “calendar e-mail” (like this “i9i3ptng87p5dkk9n779g323o8@group.calendar.google.com”). But when I try to add this calendar to my Google Calendar it shows me an error.

Can anyone help me with this?
Is it possible to do what I want?

Thank you so much! @dorel !

Hi again @rpetribu,

Based on what I’ve gathered, it seems calendars created by the plugin aren’t automatically set to public access for subscription. However, by incorporating the “Make Cal Public Readable” action into my workflows, I’ve successfully subscribed to the calendar using its Calendar ID. Subsequently, all events added through our plugin reflected promptly in the Google calendar.

Should you have any more questions or need further assistance, I’m here and ready to help :blush:

Best regards :sunflower:
