The Calendar API lets you display, create and modify calendar events as well as work with many other calendar-related objects, such as calendars or access controls. This document describes how to use RESTful calls and client libraries for various programming languages (Java, PHP, .NET, JavaScript, NodeJs, Ruby, Python, Go, Android, iOS).
Here are a few ideas for getting started with the Google Calendar API.
