Google Calendar connector

1. Install the SDK

   Node.js

   npm install @scalekit-sdk/node

   Python

   pip install scalekit

   Full SDK reference: Node.js | Python

2. Set your credentials

   Add your Scalekit credentials to your .env file. Find values in app.scalekit.com > Developers > API Credentials.

   .env

   SCALEKIT_ENVIRONMENT_URL=<your-environment-url>
   SCALEKIT_CLIENT_ID=<your-client-id>
   SCALEKIT_CLIENT_SECRET=<your-client-secret>

3. Set up the connector

   Register your Google Calendar credentials with Scalekit so it handles the token lifecycle. You do this once per environment.

   Dashboard setup steps

   Register your Scalekit environment with the Google Calendar connector so Scalekit handles the authentication flow and token lifecycle for you. The connection name you create will be used to identify and invoke the connection programmatically. Then complete the configuration in your application as follows:

   1. Set up auth redirects

      • In Scalekit dashboard, go to AgentKit > Connections > Create Connection. Find Google Calendar and click Create. Click Use your own credentials and copy the redirect URI. It looks like https://<SCALEKIT_ENVIRONMENT_URL>/sso/v1/oauth/<CONNECTION_ID>/callback.

        

      • Navigate to Google Cloud Console → APIs & Services → Credentials. Select + Create Credentials, then OAuth client ID. Choose Web application from the Application type menu.

        

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

        

   2. Enable the Google Calendar API

      • In Google Cloud Console, go to APIs & Services → Library. Search for “Google Calendar API” and click Enable.

   3. Get client credentials

      • Google provides your Client ID and Client Secret after you create the OAuth client ID in step 1.

   4. Add credentials in Scalekit

      • In Scalekit dashboard, go to AgentKit > Connections and open the connection you created.

      • Copy the Connection name shown on that connection and use that exact value in your code as connection_name or connectionName. It may be something like meeting-prep-agent-googlecalendar, not googlecalendar.

      • Enter your credentials:

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

        

      • Click Save.

4. Authorize and make your first call

   Node.js

   quickstart.ts

   import { ScalekitClient } from '@scalekit-sdk/node'
   import 'dotenv/config'
   
   const scalekit = new ScalekitClient(
     process.env.SCALEKIT_ENV_URL,
     process.env.SCALEKIT_CLIENT_ID,
     process.env.SCALEKIT_CLIENT_SECRET,
   )
   const actions = scalekit.actions
   
   const connector = 'googlecalendar'
   const identifier = 'user_123'
   
   // Generate an authorization link for the user
   const { link } = await actions.getAuthorizationLink({ connectionName: connector, identifier })
   console.log('Authorize Google Calendar:', link)
   process.stdout.write('Press Enter after authorizing...')
   await new Promise(r => process.stdin.once('data', r))
   
   // Make your first call
   const result = await actions.executeTool({
     connector,
     identifier,
     toolName: 'googlecalendar_list_calendars',
     toolInput: {},
   })
   console.log(result)

   Python

   quickstart.py

   import os
   from scalekit.client import ScalekitClient
   from dotenv import load_dotenv
   load_dotenv()
   
   scalekit_client = ScalekitClient(
       env_url=os.getenv("SCALEKIT_ENV_URL"),
       client_id=os.getenv("SCALEKIT_CLIENT_ID"),
       client_secret=os.getenv("SCALEKIT_CLIENT_SECRET"),
   )
   actions = scalekit_client.actions
   
   connection_name = "googlecalendar"
   identifier = "user_123"
   
   # Generate an authorization link for the user
   link_response = actions.get_authorization_link(
       connection_name=connection_name,
       identifier=identifier,
   )
   print("Authorize Google Calendar:", link_response.link)
   input("Press Enter after authorizing...")
   
   # Make your first call
   result = actions.execute_tool(
       tool_input={},
       tool_name="googlecalendar_list_calendars",
       connection_name=connection_name,
       identifier=identifier,
   )
   print(result)

What you can do

Connect this agent connector to let your agent:

• Create calendar, event — Create a new secondary calendar in a connected Google Calendar account
• Delete acl rule, calendar, event — Permanently revoke a user’s, group’s, domain’s, or the public’s access to a calendar in a connected Google Calendar account by deleting an access control rule
• Get calendar, event by id — Retrieve metadata for a calendar in a connected Google Calendar account, including its summary, description, and timezone
• Rule insert acl — Grant a user, group, domain, or the public access to a calendar in a connected Google Calendar account by inserting a new access control rule
• List acl rules, calendars, event instances — List the access control rules for a calendar in a connected Google Calendar account, showing who has access and their permission level

Common workflows

Execute a tool

Node.js

const accountResponse = await actions.getOrCreateConnectedAccount({
  connectionName: 'googlecalendar',
  identifier: 'user_123',
});
const connectedAccountId = accountResponse.connectedAccount?.id;

if (!connectedAccountId) {
  throw new Error('Authorize the Google Calendar connection before listing events.');
}

const response = await actions.executeTool({
  connector: 'googlecalendar',
  identifier: 'user_123',
  toolName: 'googlecalendar_list_events',
  toolInput: {
    calendar_id: 'primary',
    max_results: 10,
  },
});

const events = Array.isArray(response.data?.events) ? response.data.events : [];
const nextPageToken =
  typeof response.data?.next_page_token === 'string' ? response.data.next_page_token : '';

console.log('Events returned:', events.length);
console.log('Next page token:', nextPageToken);

Python

account_response = actions.get_or_create_connected_account(
    connection_name='googlecalendar',
    identifier='user_123',
)
connected_account = account_response.connected_account

if not connected_account.id:
    raise RuntimeError("Authorize the Google Calendar connection before listing events.")

response = actions.execute_tool(
    connection_name='googlecalendar',
    identifier='user_123',
    tool_name="googlecalendar_list_events",
    tool_input={
        "calendar_id": "primary",
        "max_results": 10,
    },
)

data = response.data or {}
events = data.get("events", [])
next_page_token = data.get("next_page_token", "")

print("Events returned:", len(events))
print("Next page token:", next_page_token)

Proxy API call

Node.js

const result = await actions.request({
  connectionName: 'googlecalendar',
  identifier: 'user_123',
  path: '/calendar/v3/users/me/calendarList',
  method: 'GET',
});
console.log(result);

Python

result = actions.request(
    connection_name='googlecalendar',
    identifier='user_123',
    path="/calendar/v3/users/me/calendarList",
    method="GET"
)
print(result)

Google OAuth consent screen verification

Before you use your own Google OAuth credentials in production, understand what end users see on Google’s consent screen when they authorize a connected account.

Audience type	Consent screen behavior	When to use
Internal	Shows your App Name and logo from Branding settings	Only users in your Google Workspace or Cloud Identity organization can authorize the connector
External	Shows {env_name}.scalekit.dev until Google verifies your app	Any user with a Google account can authorize the connector

Why External is required for most AgentKit connectors:

• Internal restricts authorization to users in your Google Workspace or Cloud Identity organization. Users with @gmail.com or other Google accounts outside your organization cannot complete OAuth.
• External is required when end users outside your organization authorize tool access through connected accounts.
• Organization-managed OAuth clients follow the same rules as personal or developer OAuth clients. Switching to an org-owned client does not bypass Google verification.
• Until Google completes verification of your External app, users see scalekit.dev on the consent screen. After verification, your App Name and logo appear.

Separate from Scalekit domain verification

This is Google’s OAuth consent screen behavior—not Scalekit’s. Custom domain controls your Scalekit environment URL for MCP auth branding. It does not replace Google’s app verification for OAuth consent screens.

During development:

• Add Test users under APIs & Services → OAuth consent screen while publishing status is Testing.
• On unverified apps, users can click Advanced → Go to app (unsafe) to proceed during testing.
• Google Workspace admins may need to allowlist your OAuth client.

For Google’s verification requirements and timeline, refer to Google’s OAuth consent screen verification guide.
