Introduction
This plugin lets authorized users access the details of their Calendar events, create new events, or delete events.
Prerequisites
For using the plugin you'll need to get the API credentials as API Key and API Secret. Create your development account at https://console.developers.google.com and enable the Google Calendar API.
Also working with Access Token requires the use of Google's Playground - https://developers.google.com/oauthplayground/
Setting up
Setup Google Developers Console
- Sign in to Google Console: https://console.developers.google.com
- Access “API & Services”
- Go to the “Credentials” tab and create an OAuth Client ID.
- In the “OAuth 2.0 Client IDs” list click on your created OAuth ID’s name. Add your redirect URls in the same fields.
5. Copy Client ID and Client Secret, and past it in plugins settings fields, API Key and API Secret.
Hint: Remember to save your changes to the console.

Workflow Example
In this example, we demonstrate how to get an access token by exchanging it with a refresh token. This is not necessary if you use Bubble action "Signup/login" and specify OAuth provider "Google Calendar Offline". The access token will be updated automatically.
- On page load, we set the action to get the access token from the user's refresh token:
2. Storing a temporary value through custom state:
3. Making changes to user field idToken by storing the id token of the calendar page:
