Obtaining the Google API Credentials

  1. Open Google API Console - Go to Google API Console . If you don’t have a project in your Google Cloud subscription, create one before proceeding. Under the Dashboard pane, select “Enable APIs and Services”.

  2. Search for the Google Calendar API - In the search box, type “calendar” and select the Google Calendar API search result.

  3. Enable the Google Calendar API - Enable the selected API to proceed.

  4. Configure the OAuth Consent Screen - Go to the OAuth consent screen  from the side pane. Select the app type (Internal or External) and enter the basic app details on the first page.

  5. Add Calendar Scopes - On the Scopes page, select “Add or Remove Scopes”. Search for Calendar.event and select the scopes with values .../auth/calendar.events, .../auth/calendar.readonly, and then click “Update”.

  6. Add Test Users - On the Test Users page, add the Google account(s) you’ll be using. Verify details on the last page to complete the consent screen configuration.

  7. Create OAuth Credentials - From the side pane, select Credentials  and then “Create Credentials”. Choose “OAuth Client ID”.

  8. Select Web Application as the Application Type - Choose “Web Application” as the Application Type.

  9. Add Authorized Redirect URIs - Under Authorized redirect URI’s, add the URIs:

<Cal.diy URL>/api/integrations/googlecalendar/callback <Cal.diy URL>/api/auth/callback/google

Replace <Cal.diy URL> with the URL where your application runs.

  1. Download the OAuth Client ID JSON - The key will be created, redirecting you back to the Credentials page. Select the new client ID under “OAuth 2.0 Client IDs”, then click “Download JSON”. Copy the JSON file contents and paste the entire string into the .env and .env.appStore files under the GOOGLE_API_CREDENTIALS key.

  2. Set the Google Integration as Internal - In the .env file, set the following environment variable:

GOOGLE_LOGIN_ENABLED=false

This will configure the Google integration as an Internal app, restricting login access.

Adding Google Calendar to Cal.diy App Store

After adding Google credentials, you can now add the Google Calendar App to the app store. Repopulate the App store by running:

  1. Repopulate App Store - Run pnpm db-seed to update the app store and include the newly added Google Calendar integration.
