Google Calendar

Google Calendar is Google’s cloud-based calendar service that allows you to manage your events, appointments, and schedules from any computer or device with just a web browser.

Supports authentication: OAuth 2.0

Setup

Caution

Google applications using scopes that permit access to certain user data must complete a verification process.

Configure redirect URL

1. Open the Scalekit dashboard

   In Scalekit dashboard, go to Agent Auth → Create Connection.

2. Create a Google Calendar connection

   Find Google Calendar from the list of providers and click Create.

   Note

   By default, a connection using Scalekit’s credentials will be created. If you are testing, go directly to Usage. Before going to production, update your connection by following the steps below.

3. Copy the redirect URI

   Click Use your own credentials and copy the redirect URI — it will look like https://{your-env-url}/sso/v1/oauth/{connection_id}/callback.

   

4. Open Google Cloud Console

   Navigate to Google Cloud Console’s APIs & Services > Credentials

5. Create an OAuth client ID

   Select + Create Credentials, then OAuth client ID

6. Select web application type

   Choose Web application from the Application type menu

   

7. Add the redirect URI

   Under Authorized redirect URIs, click + Add URI, paste the redirect URI, and select Create.

   

Google provides your Client ID and Client Secret credentials.

Enable Google Calendar API

1. Open the API Library

   In Google Cloud Console, go to APIs & Services > Library

2. Search for the Google Calendar API

   Search for “Google Calendar” in the API Library

3. Select the Google Calendar API

   Select Google Calendar API

4. Enable the API

   Press the blue Enable button

Add credentials

1. Open your connection settings

   In Scalekit dashboard, go to Agent Auth → Connections and open the connection you created.

2. Enter your credentials

   Enter your credentials:

   • Client ID (from above)
   • Client Secret (from above)
   • Permissions (scopes — see Google API Scopes reference)
   

3. Save the connection

   Click Save

Usage

Connect a user’s Google Calendar account and make API calls on their behalf — Scalekit handles OAuth and token management automatically.

Python

import scalekit.client, os
from dotenv import load_dotenv
load_dotenv()

connection_name = "googlecalendar"  # get your connection name from connection configurations
identifier = "user_123"             # your unique user identifier

# Get your credentials from app.scalekit.com → Developers → Settings → API Credentials
scalekit_client = scalekit.client.ScalekitClient(
    client_id=os.getenv("SCALEKIT_CLIENT_ID"),
    client_secret=os.getenv("SCALEKIT_CLIENT_SECRET"),
    env_url=os.getenv("SCALEKIT_ENV_URL"),
)
actions = scalekit_client.actions

# Authenticate the user
link_response = actions.get_authorization_link(
    connection_name=connection_name,
    identifier=identifier
)
# present this link to your user for authorization, or click it yourself for testing
print("🔗 Authorize Google Calendar:", link_response.link)
input("Press Enter after authorizing...")

# Make a request via Scalekit proxy
result = actions.request(
    connection_name=connection_name,
    identifier=identifier,
    path="/calendar/v3/users/me/calendarList",
    method="GET"
)
print(result)
